In order to elucidate the oxidative stabilities of mackerel lipids, lipids were extracted from ordinary muscle, dark muscle, skin (including subcutaneous adipose tissue) and viscera, and then stored at $30^{circ}C$. The changes of lipids were examined periodically by measuring peroxide value (POV), thiobarbituric acid (TBA), weighing method, acid value (AV) and iodine value (IV), Fatty acid composition of lipids was analyzed by GLC. The results obtained are summerized as follows: The velocity of lipid oxidation during the storage was differ from the extracting part of the sample. It was laster in skin, viscera, dark muscle and ordinary muscle in the order. Ratio of polar lipid fractions in total lipids was ranged from 5 to $15\%$, and the highest result was observed in dark muscle. Main fatty acids of the lipids were $C_{16:0}$ acid ($22.0{sim}25.9\%$), $C_{18:1}$ acid ($22.3{sim}26.7\%$) and $C_{22:6}$ acid ($9.6{sim}13.4\%$), and $C_{22:6}$ acid content ($\%$) was the highest in lipid from dark muscle, and the lowest in lipid from skin. Monoenoic acid content ($\%$) was higher in the non-polar lipid than in the polar lipid, on the contrary. polyenoic acid content ($\%$) was higher in the polar lipid than in the non-polar lipid. Polyunsaturated fatty acids of the lipids, $C_{20:5}$ acid and $C_{22:6}$ acid, decreased predominantly with oxidation during storage, while saturated acids, $C_{14:0}$ acid and $C_{16:0}$ acid, increased predominantly. The polar lipid fractions were oxidized much faster than the non-polar lipid fractions.
