| Abstract: | The formation of the micropyle in the oocytes of a gobiid fish O. acutipennis is described. In O. acutipennis the micropyle is formed at the summit of a cone termed here as the “micropylar cone”. A single follicular cell takes part in the formation of the micropyle while the two cells on either side seems to play a supporting role in the process. |
