Abstract
Vertebral coalescence and malformation in the lateral line are reported in a specimen of cultured cyprinid fish Hypophthalamichthys nobilis . Severe vertebral fusion was observed and described. Lateral line showed unusual undulation in the trunk region. Genetic and epigenetic causes may be implicated in these anomalies.
