Description Not Available
Three different groups of intraovarian ova, 'a', 'b' and 'c', are noticed in
the ovary of mouthbrooding tachysurid catfishes; the former two groups are small
nonyolked and reproductively nonfunctional and the last group is yolked, opaque
and functional. The group 'a' and 'b' ova are sequentially arranged, respectively
in the oviducal and posterior region while the group 'c' ova occupies the anterior
three-fourth of the ovarian cavity. There is a certain ratio in the number of ova
of the three groups, probably characteristic of each species. All the nonfunctional
ova of the groups 'a' and 'b' and ripe functional group 'c' are spawned in a bunch
and taken into the mouth of male, where only the group 'c' ripe eggs develop into
young ones.
