The morphological characteristics of the peripheral leucocytes of the cichlid O. mossambicus were studied using light microscopy. Cytochemical procedures and phagocytic studies were employed. Four main types of leucocytes could be recognized: lymphocytes, thrombocytes, monocytes and granulocytes. Two distinct types of granulocyte were identified. Monocytes and one type of granulocyte were found to be phagocytic.
