Williams Jr., E.H. Bunkley-Williams, L. unique anomaly pollution effect triple ovarian lobes Mugil cephalus Mugil curema Mugilidae anomalía única contaminación ? efecto lóbulos triples de ovario Una lisa blanca, Mugil curema Valenciennes (Perciformes: Mugilidae), de 386 que fueron examinadas en el Golfo de Cariaco, Venezuela, entre 1984 y 1985, tenía un tercer lóbulo completo en el ovario. El pez medía 24.8 cm de largo y pesaba 280 gramos. Las dos mitades del lóbulo doble del ovario estaban separadas por un septo grueso y fibroso y contenían óvulos atrésicos. Los óvulos atrésicos tenían formas grotescas y estaban sufriendo liquefacción y produciendo macrófagos. La mayoría de los óvulos parecían haber sido retenidos por una obstrucción distal. No se encontró evidencia de neoplasma. Este fenómeno puede estar relacionado con el aumento en los niveles de contaminación del Golfo. Ninguna anomalía similar a la descrita anteriormente ha sido reportada en un pez.
