Leiognathus splendens, Histology & Ova diameter study of pony fish, Maharashtra, IndiaAbstract
In the present study, Histology & Ova diameter study of pony fish, Leiognathus splendens (Cuvier,1829) from Ratnagiri coast were done. The fishes studied ranged between 6.1 to 12.5 cm. in Total length (TL.) during the period February 2012 to January 2013. The studies on Histology & Ova diameter indicated that the Pony fish, L. splendens spawns more than one time in a season. First which is peak spawning season appears from October to December and the second spawning season during February to April. The fecundity of fish ranged from 7,704 to 31,720 with an average of 22092.83 eggs, and Ova diameter was in the ranges from 0.9 mm to 0.69 mm.
