The present book deals with the fish neuroendocrinology, which specifically throws light on the Vasotocin a nonapeptide hormone responsible for the reproductive behaviour and successful reproduction in the lower vertebrates. Further, this book deals with internal and external cues such as catecholaminergic regulation, steroidal hormones interplay and pheromones, temperature and photoperiod and their correlation with the Vasotocin and its regulation, which directly or indirectly plays an important role in reproductive activity of the Indian catfish Heteropneustes fossilis.

1. Introduction
2. Circadian and Seasonal Variations in Brain and Plasma Vasotocin
3. Effects of Altered Photoperiod and Temperature on Vasotocin
4. Differential and Reproductive Stage-Dependent Catecholaminergic Regulation of Vasotocin
5. Estrogen Regulation of Brain Vasotocin: An interaction with catecholaminergic system
6. Effects of Ovaprim on Vasotocin and Steroid Hormone Profiles
7. Pheromonal Stimulation of Vasotocin and Ovarian Steroid Secretion
