Abstract:The morphological character and its development of the granule cell in the gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) of Bastard halibut (Paralichthys olivaceus) were described under the electron microscope and identified as eosinophils. They presented in the lamina propria and luminal to the stratum compactum next to the circular muscle layer. Having big uneven granules were their main feature The four developing periods of eosinophils were increasing period, maturing period, secreting period and declining period. The results showed that the eosinophils in the GALT are the important parts of marine fish's immune defense mechanism.
