•Zebrafish PACAP2-speciifc antibody is established.•adcyap1b mRNA (coding PACAP2) is dominantly expressed in the zebrafish brain, with the highest level of expression in the telencephalon, followed by the diencephalon.•PACAP2 immunoreactivity was observed in the telencephalon, diencephalon, and cere...
