Morphological organisation of the digestive tract in the stream catfish Pseudecheneis sulcatus (McClelland).

We describe the histological organisation and mucin content in the digestive tract of the stream catfish Pseudecheneis sulcatus. The aim is to find the modifications of the digestive tract in relation to food resources of its habitat. The oesophageal mucosa consists of stratified squamous epithelium with many mucous-secreting cells.
