Abstract

Tor tambra is one of the 10 species of fish that found in Batang Gadis River. This fish species has abundance and also the highest dominance at four observation stations in Sungai Batang Gadis. The purpose of this study was to look at the histology of gill organs and liver of Tor tambra in the Batang Gadis river. The study was conducted in June to August 2019 in the Zoology Laboratory of the Department of Biology, Padang State University. Direct observation and purposive sampling were conducted at two locations around Batang Gadis River (Tamiang and Muara Mais). Histological samples of gills and liver were isolated, fixated, dehydrated and embedded on paraffin and stained using Haematoxylin-Eosin. The results showed a number of histological changes in gill and Tambra fish liver from both locations. Those alterations varied from Melano macrophage center (MMC), hyperplasia, edema and necrosis. Those alterations varied from the two sampling locations. The level of alteration more in fish taken at station 2 (Muara Mais).
