An African fish, Allocyttus verrucosus, was found to contain the body oil primarily consisting of wax in place of glyceride. The acetone-soluble oil of the flesh was fractionated into the hydrocarbon, wax, glyceride and polar substance fractions by column and thin-layer chromatography, and alcohol and fatty acid constituents of wax and glyceride fractions were analyzed by gas-liquid chromatography. A diversity of alcohols and fatty acids was remarkable and a very close similarity observed between the fatty acid composition of the wax fraction and that of the glyceride fraction. The main constituents present were eicosenol and docosenol in wax, and oleic and eicosenoic acids both in wax and glyceride.
