Abstract in Brazilian Portuguese: The red blood cells of fishes are nucleated. When the leukocyte count is performed using the usual direct method in a counting chamber, the nuclei of the hemolysed red cells are easily mistaken with white blood cells. Direct methods using special diluents were developed but the indirect method has been found to be more accurate (McKnight, 1966). A direct method for counting fish leukocytes without the use of special diluents was developed by us. It is an adaptation of Maspes & Janira direct method for counting platelets (Maspes &.Jamra, 1955).
