This study was taken to examine correlationships between ehdocrine changes such as estradiol-17$\beta$, progesterone, T4 and T3 and serum components concentrations of female Oreochromis niloticus living in 0$\textperthousand$, 10$\textperthousand$, 20$\textperthousand$, and 30$\textperthousand$ salt concentrations, respectively. The results obtained in these experiments were summarized as follows. Correlation coefficients of serum albumin and thyroxine were +0.907 and +0.611 in 10$\textperthousand$ and 20$\textperthousand$, respectively. In 30$\textperthousand$ salinity, serum BUN and other 3 kinds of hormones showed all negative correlation coefficients. Correlation coefficients of serum estradiol-17$\beta$ with calcium and cholesterol in 20$\beta$ were +0.624, +0.733, respectively. Correlation coefficient between serum triglycerides and thyroxine in 30$\beta$ was +0.989.
