Abstract:

is a freshwater fish with high economic value and is endemic to East Asia. Some studies have shown that mandarin fish exhibit different movement modes, feeding behavior, and nutritional demands during the larvae and juvenile stages. In this study, the morphological ossification characteristics of the skulls, vertebrae, and appendages of larvae[1-35 days post hatching (dph)] were described using a cartilage bone clearing and staining technique to provide information on the larval and juvenile organ structure development and functional adaption. The results showed that the preopercle of the skull began ossification at 14 dph. The upper and mandibular structure, which showed a relative length change, was ossified at 15 dph. At 17 dph, the jaw teeth, articular, and hyomandibular began to ossify, while the interopercle, angular, opercle, branchiostegal ray, and frontal structures were ossified at 19 dph. At 20 dph, the quadrate, subopercle, and supplementary maxilla were ossified; most of the skull was completely ossified by 35 dph. Ossification of the vertebrae began at 15 dph from the anterior to the posterior and was completely ossified by 29 dph. The dorsal rib and ventral rib began to ossify from the base to the outside at 20 dph. The haemal arch, haemal spine, neural arch, and neural spine from the front to back and the base to the distal end were ossified. Ossification of the haemal spine and neural spine occurred later than that of the corresponding vertebrae. The ossification order of the appendages was from the pectoral fin to the dorsal fin, anal fin, pelvic fin, and caudal fin. The cleithrum of the pectoral fin was ossified at 16 dph, while the coracoid and scapula were ossified at 25 dph. The dorsal fin and anal fin were ossified at 18 and 20 dph, respectively. The pelvic fins were ossified from the middle to both ends at 23 dph and the ossification pattern was opposite to that of the pectoral fin. The urostyle and hypural of the caudal fin began to ossify at 25 dph. The appendicular skeleton was fully ossified at 35 dph. The results showed that the early skull ossification of larvae and juveniles is closely related to their feeding and defense behavior, while ossification of the vertebrae and appendages are closely related to their movement and avoidance of the enemy.
