Occurrence of eel eggs in the Indian coastal waters has been recorded only on a
few occasions, probably owing to their relative scarcity. The first to report of their
occurrence were Aiyar, Unny and Varkey (1944) from the Madras Coast. Nair
and Bhimachar (1950) described three types of eggs and two types of early larvae
from the plankton off Tuticorin, Gulf of Mannar. Bapat (1955)gave brief notes on
an eel egg and newly-hatched larva from the plankton of Mandapam area. Descriptions
of the early larvae belonging to Ophichthyidae, obtained by rearing the eggs
collected from Madras Coast are given by Jones and Pantulu (1955). Ganapati
and Raju (1960) described the eggs and early development of Muraenasp.
and Ophichthyis sp. off WaUair Coast. Nair and Dharmamba (1960) gave
an account of the early development of an Ophichthyid egg from the Lawson's
Bay, Waltair. The present communication deals with the eggs and early development
of a Muraenid spedes, collected off Cannanore, south-west coast of India.
