MILLER AND T. T. DUNAGAN Department of Physiology, Southern Illinois University, Carbondale, Illinois 62901 ABSTRACT: New components observed in the lacunar system of Macracanthorhynchus hirudinaceus (Acanthocephala) in relation to other body layers have indicated that the system is much more extensive than previously described. Using Procion dyes and India ink in inverted and injected living worms, the flow pattern from the dorsal or ventral longitudinal lacunar channel has been followed. A model of this system shows a major new pair of channels, the medial longitudinal lacunar channels, located adjacent to the pseudocoel and approximately equidistant from the dorsal and ventral longitudinal lacunar channels. Canals are also observed which interconnect the two major canals. In addition, an anastomosing canal system covers the medial surface of the longitudinal muscle layer. This canal system is separate from the lacunar system previously described and is much more fragile. The relationships between these new components of the body wall and those previously described indicate that the contents of the pseudocoel are readily accessible to the "circulatory" system of the worm. The body wall and the associated muscu- attempt to understand the infrastructure of the lature of acanthocephala has been of interest outer most layers which in general terms con- to biologists since the early studies of Goeze sists of the tegument or epidermis (hypodermis (1782) and Zeder (1800) who represented of some authors).

Later authors mond (1968) described the surface as consist- such as Schneider (1868) and Kaiser (1893) ing of a system of surface pores and canals recognized and described a complex body wall which penetrate into shallow hypodermal consisting of different contractile elements, cavities.

Abstract Background: Although numerous studies on parasites of the Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua L. have been conducted in the North Atlantic, comparative analyses on local cod parasite faunas are virtually lacking. The present study is based on examination of large samples of cod from six geographical areas of the North East Atlantic which yielded abundant baseline data on parasite distribution and abundance.

  • Some Aspects of the Taxonomy and Biology of Adult Spirurine Nematodes Parasitic in Fishes: a Review
    FOLIA PARASITOLOGICA 54: 239–257, 2007 REVIEW ARTICLE Some aspects of the taxonomy and biology of adult spirurine nematodes parasitic in fishes: a review František Moravec Institute of Parasitology, Biology Centre, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic, Branišovská 31, 370 05 České Budějovice, Czech Republic Key words: Nematoda, Spirurina, Cystidicolidae, Rhabdochonidae, parasites, fish, taxonomy, biology Abstract. About 300 species belonging to four superfamilies (Gnathostomatoidea, Habronematoidea, Physalopteroidea and Thelazioidea) of the nematode suborder Spirurina are known as the adult parasites of freshwater, brackish-water and marine fishes. They are placed in four families, of which the Gnathostomatidae, including Echinocephalus with a few species and the monotypic Metaleptus, are parasites of elasmobranchs, whereas Ancyracanthus contains one species in teleosts; the Physalopteri- dae is represented in fish by four genera, Bulbocephalus, Heliconema, Paraleptus and Proleptus, each with several species in both elasmobranchs and teleosts. The majority of fish spirurines belongs to the Rhabdochonidae, which includes 10 genera (Beaninema, Fellicola, Hepatinema, Heptochona, Johnstonmawsonia, Megachona, Pancreatonema, Prosungulonema, Rhabdo- chona and Vasorhabdochona) of species parasitizing mainly teleosts, rarely elasmobranchs, and the Cystidicolidae with about 23 genera (Ascarophis, Caballeronema, Capillospirura, Comephoronema, Crenatobronema, Cristitectus, Ctenascarophis, Cyclo- zone, Cystidicola, Cystidicoloides, Johnstonmawsonoides,

The nematode species most likely arrived in California a century ago with propagative date palms from the Middle East and eventually spread to Florida on ornamental date palms that were shipped from Arizona and California.

  • Studies on Molluscan Shells: Contributions from Microscopic and Analytical Methods
    Micron 40 (2009) 669–690 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Micron journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/micron Review Studies on molluscan shells: Contributions from microscopic and analytical methods Silvia Maria de Paula, Marina Silveira * Instituto de Fı´sica, Universidade de Sa˜o Paulo, 05508-090 Sa˜o Paulo, SP, Brazil ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Article history: Molluscan shells have always attracted the interest of researchers, from biologists to physicists, from Received 25 April 2007 paleontologists to materials scientists. Much information is available at present, on the elaborate Received in revised form 7 May 2009 architecture of the shell, regarding the various Mollusc classes. The crystallographic characterization of Accepted 10 May 2009 the different shell layers, as well as their physical and chemical properties have been the subject of several investigations. In addition, many researches have addressed the characterization of the biological Keywords: component of the shell and the role it plays in the hard exoskeleton assembly, that is, the Mollusca biomineralization process. All these topics have seen great advances in the last two or three decades, Shell microstructures expanding our knowledge on the shell properties, in terms of structure, functions and composition. This Electron microscopy Infrared spectroscopy involved the use of a range of specialized and modern techniques, integrating microscopic methods with X-ray diffraction biochemistry, molecular biology procedures and spectroscopy. However, the factors governing synthesis Electron diffraction of a specific crystalline carbonate phase in any particular layer of the shell and the interplay between organic and inorganic components during the biomineral assembly are still not widely known. This present survey deals with microstructural aspects of molluscan shells, as disclosed through use of scanning electron microscopy and related analytical methods (microanalysis, X-ray diffraction, electron diffraction and infrared spectroscopy).
