Abstract
Carotenoids occurring in the adult sea-trout in the river Gowienica during spawning migration, spawning, and post spawning migration are presented. Carotenoid contents in the fins, skin, muscles, liver, gonads, and intestines of 8 males and females were determined by means of column and thin layer chromatography.
