This research aims to observe the histology of anterior gut of Sulawesi medaka fish. Histological study on the anterior gut of Sulawesi medaka fish using buccal cavity and oesophagus organs. Histological observation showed that the mouth and buccal cavity are shared by the respiratory and digestive systems. Also in Sulawesi medaka fish we found the lining of the buccal cavity consists of mucoid epithelium on a thick basement membrane with numerous goblet cells.
