Abstract
We describe anomalies in oocyte structure of manybar goatfish Parupeneus multifasciatus from the coastal zone of southern Central Vietnam. The anomalies are registered in the majority of cells (>80%) from ovarian fragments of several individuals. The abnormal cells are at the periods of maturation, vitellogenesis, and, sometimes, previtellogenesis. Possible effect of pollutants on oocyte morphology is discussed.
