Title: Thyroid tumours in the senile guppy, Lebistes reticulatus (Peters)
Abstract: We have previously described a thyroid growth which had arisen spontaneously in a few senile fish from a laboratory population of guppies, Lebistes (Poecilia) reticulatus. We believed that this growth was neoplastic. Our histological interpretation has been questioned. In view of the problems in distinguishing between neoplastic and goitrous thyroid tissue in teleost fishes, we show photomicrographs of kidney and liver metastases from this tumor to support our earlier diagnosis.
