Fine structure of spermatozoa in the blackspot sea bream Pagellus bogaraveo (Brünnich, 1768) with some considerations about the centriolar complex.

Scanning and transmission electron microscopy were used to investigate the fine structure of the sperm of the sparid fish Pagellus bogaraveo. The spermatozoon of P. bogaraveo belongs, like that of the other sparid fish, to the teleostean "type I" spermatozoon with the flagellar axis insert perpendicular to the nuclear fossa.
