The terminal of gill filament of Pangasius sutchi expands to be spoon-shaped. Many secondary gill lamellae arrange on two sides of each filament, and inlay each other. There are many taste buds distributing on the surface of gill arches and gill rakers. The respiratory surface of gill filament is rough and highly full of bloodvessels; the non-respiratory surface of gill filament is composed of tetragonal or hexagonal epithelial cells, which form various patterns. There are many holes among the circular ridgy patterns. The basic structure of the secondary lamellae consists of one or two outer epithelial layers, an intermediate basement membrane layer internal to which are the pillar cells and their flanges which line the blood channels. The chloride cells are frequently found in the base regions of the secondary lamellae and are overlain by a single epithelial layer , they often seemed to be open at the surface between adjacent epithelial cells. The relationships between the special structure of fish gills and their function are discussed. Key words: Pangasius sutchi ; gill; fine structure
