This study was conducted to investigate the biological development and growth of the Amur catfish, Silurus asotuss at the early larval stage. The eggs and larvae were obtained via the artificial spawning technique. The findings showed that the eggs of the Amur catfish hatched 27 hr after fertilization (hAF) under temperature conditions of 26.9 ± 1.3°C. The newly hatched larvae (4.71 ± 0.87 mm) had a large green yolk sac (0.99 ± 0.02 mm3), unpigmented eyes, undeveloped mouth, and closed anus with one pair of developed maxillary barbels. At the 30 hAH (7.01 ± 0.41 mm), the yolk sac continued to decrease (0.33 ± 0.08 mm3), the barbels elongated, the mouth opened, the lower jaw was movable, with the peristaltic movement of the small intestine detectable.
