| Abstract in Brazilian Portuguese: | The pyloric caeca of fishes vary considerably in number, shape, size and arrangement, and constit,ute a characteristic feature of the intestinal tract of a very large number of families, both fresh-water and marine, widely distributed in all parts of the world (Rahimullah, 1945). In spite of the numerous references in the literature on the pyloric caeca, its function is still discussed, being unknown in many fish species. In this paper a comparative description is made of the macro and micro morphology of the pyloric caeca of the king mackerel, Scorriberomorus cavalla (Cuvier), and the Spanish mackerel, Scomberomorus maculates (Mitchill). Enzime tests were also effected trying to determine its probable function. |
