Abstract

The cyclic changes in the testis of freshwater catfish, Clarias macrocephalus (Gunther) over a
period of 12 months (August, 1979 to July, 1980) were studied histologically. The six histological
stages identified in the testis were related to six morphologically determined maturity stages. Spawning
takes place twice a year; in late September to early November and again in March till early June.
