Hydrocephalus in burbot ( Lota lota L.) larvae

During an experiment aimed at elucidating the nutritional requirements of burbot ( Lota lota L.) larvae, the latter displayed a dorsal swelling of the cranium. Histological examination revealed dilated brain ventricles (hydrocephalus internus). Bacterial culture of the content of the swelling was ne...
