## Abstract The loach __Misgurnus anguillicaudatus__ comprises diploid clonal, triploid and diploid–triploid mosaic individuals in a wild population on Hokkaido island, Japan. When diploid eggs of clonal loaches are fertilized by haploid sperm of normal bisexual loaches, both diploid clonal and non
