The mass was a whitish tissue growth located on the right flank behind the pectoral fin with histopathology findings consistent with iridophoromas 17. Leucophoromas were found to be white spindle‐shaped cells with oval, hyperchromatic nuclei.…”

“…Iridophoroma has been reported in teleosts. 29,37,43 All of the iridophoroma cases were reported in bumblebee cichlids (Pseudotropheus crabro) in our study population. We retrieved no cases of iridophoroma in bumblebee cichlids in a search of PubMed and Google Scholar, using search terms "iridophoroma," "bumblebee cichlid," and "Pseudotropheus crabro," suggesting that iridophoroma has not been reported previously in bumblebee cichlids.…”

Of the various pigment cell tumours in fish, melanophoromas (melanoma) are common relative to other types of tumours (Singaravel et al 2017). Malignant neoplastic melanomas may be aggressively invasive and hyperplastic (Okihiro 1988;Okihiro et al 1992;Raloff 2012;Work and Aeby 2014) compared with benign melanomas or preneoplastic melanosis, the latter being the most common skin pigmentation lesion recorded in redfish (Sebastes mentella) from the North Atlantic (Bogovski and Bakai 1989).…”
