Despite its significance, there is still a lack of detailed anatomical descriptions of its brain. This study aimed to provide a comprehensive anatomical and histological characterisation of the\n                    <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">\n                      <jats:italic>O. niloticus<\/jats:italic>\n                    <\/jats:styled-content>\n                    brain.

The brain morphology of\n                    <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">\n                      <jats:italic>O. niloticus<\/jats:italic>\n                    <\/jats:styled-content>\n                    exhibits the general organisational pattern typical of teleosts, featuring two olfactory bulbs at the most cranial part of the brain, followed by prominent telencephalic lobes, a mesencephalon with a well\u2010developed pair of optic tectum, a ventrally located diencephalon with two large paired inferior lobes of the hypothalamus, a prominent cerebellum, and a large medulla oblongata. The gross and internal anatomy closely resembles that of other species within the same genus, such as\n                    <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">\n                      <jats:italic>Oreochromis mossambicus<\/jats:italic>\n                    <\/jats:styled-content>\n                    , as well as other cichlids and related teleosts, demonstrating a high degree of morphological similarity. In contrast, notable neuroanatomical differences are observed in more distantly related groups, such as Siluriformes and Gymnotiformes. Understanding the macroscopic and microscopic features of the brain can contribute to future studies in reproductive biology, behaviour, and systematics.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/ahe.70082","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,7]],"date-time":"2026-01-07T18:25:31Z","timestamp":1767810331000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Description of Encephalon Morphology of Nile Tilapia\n                    <scp>\n                      <i>Oreochromis niloticus<\/i>\n                    <\/scp>\n                    (Linnaeus, 1758) (Perciformes: Cichlidae) From Brazil"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"55","author":[{"given":"Anna Luiza de Souza","family":"Pereira","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Laborat\u00f3rio de Morfologia Animal, Departamento de Biologia, Centro de Ci\u00eancias Exatas, Naturais e da Sa\u00fade Universidade Federal do Esp\u00edrito Santo \u2010 Campus Alegre  Alegre Esp\u00edrito Santo Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Echily","family":"Sartori","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laborat\u00f3rio de Morfologia Animal, Departamento de Biologia, Centro de Ci\u00eancias Exatas, Naturais e da Sa\u00fade Universidade Federal do Esp\u00edrito Santo \u2010 Campus Alegre  Alegre Esp\u00edrito Santo Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Gabriela Munis","family":"Campos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laborat\u00f3rio de Morfologia Animal, Departamento de Biologia, Centro de Ci\u00eancias Exatas, Naturais e da Sa\u00fade Universidade Federal do Esp\u00edrito Santo \u2010 Campus Alegre  Alegre Esp\u00edrito Santo Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Carolina Dem\u00e9trio","family":"Ferreira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laborat\u00f3rio de Morfologia Animal, Departamento de Biologia, Centro de Ci\u00eancias Exatas, Naturais e da Sa\u00fade Universidade Federal do Esp\u00edrito Santo \u2010 Campus Alegre  Alegre Esp\u00edrito Santo Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Pedro Pierro","family":"Mendon\u00e7a","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laborat\u00f3rio de Nutri\u00e7\u00e3o e Produ\u00e7\u00e3o de Peixes Ornamentais Instituto Federal do Esp\u00edrito Santo \u2013 Campus Alegre  Alegre Esp\u00edrito Santo Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1711-7320","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Cristiane dos Santos","family":"Vergilio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laborat\u00f3rio de Morfologia Animal, Departamento de Biologia, Centro de Ci\u00eancias Exatas, Naturais e da Sa\u00fade Universidade Federal do Esp\u00edrito Santo \u2010 Campus Alegre  Alegre Esp\u00edrito Santo Brazil"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/zoolinnean\/zly011"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1590\/1982\u20100224\u201020130219"},{"key":"e_1_2_9_4_1","first-page":"1","volume-title":"Miscellaneous Publications, Museum of Zoology, University of Michigan","author":"Alberts J.
