Abstract Anophthalmia is recorded for the first time in Terapont heraps. The
specimen was caught by trawl net at Versova, northwest coast of India.
Mature female Terapont heraps weighing 58.78 gm and 13.06 cm total
length. Comparison of anophthalmic specimen with a normal specimen
could not show significant variation in morphometric and meristic traits and
the deformity may be congenital which has not affected growth and
physiology of fish
