Abstract

The rate of oxygen consumption is an index of the metabolic activities
of the fish. Several earlier workers (Job 1969, Fry 1947, Kinne 1964, Rao
1965) have shown 'that in euryhaline species the environmental salinity to a
certain extent influences respiration. The present study deals with the eflect of
salinity on the respiratory rate of the tropical euryhaline fish Mugil macrolepis
(Smith), a species useful for aquaculture.
