Zusammenfassung

Experimentell wird gezeigt, dass die Injektion von menschlichem Choriongonadotropin beim HöhlenfischAnoptichthys jordani, das Fortpflanzungsverhalten vermehrt und der Ertrag an entwicklungsfähigen Eiern grösser ist, wenn mehrere Pärchen gleichzeitig mit Hormon behandelt und im gleichen Aquarium zur Eiablage belassen werden.
