In the present study an attempt has been made to investigate the changes in different blood parameters in two siluroid fishes, Heteropneustes (H.) fossilis. Bloch and Clarias (C.) batrachus. Linn, both air breathing fishes, during different respiratory conditions, Viz, 1. normal, 2. submerged water condition and 3. exclusive air breathing condition. An increase in different blood parameters [Viz, red blood corpuscles (RBC) counts, haemoglobin (Hb) content and packed cell volume (PCV) etc.] was observed under submerged water and exclusive air breathing conditions. Possible reasons and the mechanism of such changes in different blood parameters have been discussed.
在本研究中，已尝试调查两种鲇形目鱼类，即印度胡鲶（Heteropneustes (H.) fossilis. Bloch）和胡子鲶（Clarias (C.) batrachus. Linn），这两种都是能呼吸空气的鱼类，在不同呼吸条件下，即1. 正常状态、2. 水下淹没状态和3. 完全空气呼吸状态下，不同血液参数的变化。在水下淹没状态和完全空气呼吸状态下，观察到不同血液参数[即红细胞（RBC）计数、血红蛋白（Hb）含量和血细胞比容（PCV）等]有所增加。已讨论了不同血液参数发生此类变化的可能原因及机制。
