The morphology of the lung of the black mamba Dendroaspis polylepis (Reptilia: Ophidia: Elapidae). A scanning and transmission electron microscopic study
(1989)
The lung of a snake, the black mamba (Dendroaspis polylepis), has been investigated by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. This species has only one lung, the right, which is long and occupies most of the ...
The morphology of the lung of the black mamba Dendroaspis polylepis (Reptilia: Ophidia: Elapidae). A scanning and transmission electron microscopic study
(1989)
The black mamba (Dendroaspis polylepis) belongs to the family Elapidae that also
includes the cobras, kraits and coral snakes. Generally, these snakes are extremely
venomous and occur in the warmer parts of the world ...
Scanning electron microscope study of the morphology of the reptilian lung: the Savanna monitor lizard Varanus exanthematicus and the pancake tortoise Malacochersus tornieri.
(1989)
The morphology of the lungs of two reptilian species, Varanus exanthematicus and Malacochersus tornieri, have been studied on gross preparations, latex casts, and critical-point-dried tissues. The shape of these lungs was ...
The morphology of the lung of a tropical terrestrial slug Trichotoxon copleyi (Mollusca: Gastropoda: Pulmonata): A scanning and transmission electron microscopic study
(1989)
The lung of the slug Trichotoxon copleyi is located in the body mantle where it opens to the outside through an adjustable pneumostome situated on the right side. The respiratory surface of the lung is profusely vascularized ...
Scanning and transmission electron microscopic study of the tracheal air sac system in a grasshopper Chrotogonus senegalensis (Kraus)—Orthoptera: Acrididae: Pyrogomorphinae
(Wiley, 1989)
The morphology of the trachea-air sac system in a species of grasshopper Chrotogonus senegalensis has been studied by using scanning and transmission electron microscopes. Capacious air sacs were formed as dilatations along ...
The lung of the emu, Dromaius novaehollandiae: a microscopic and morphometric study
(1989)
The emu (Dromaius novaehollandiae) is the only extant member of the family
Dromaiidae and is the most widespread of Australian flightless birds (Cameron &
Harrison, 1978). After the African ostrich (Struthio camelus), ...

(Wiley, 1989)
The lung of the slug Trichotoxon copleyi is located in the body mantle where it opens to the outside through an adjustable pneumostome situated on the right side. The respiratory surface of the lung is profusely vascularized ...
The morphology of the lung of the East African tree frog Chiromantis petersi with observations on the skin and the buccal cavity as secondary gas exchange organs.
(1989)
The class Amphibia consists of three distinct Orders, the Anura - the tailless
amphibians; the Urodela - the tailed amphibians, and the Apoda - the snake-like
amphibians also called caecilians. The anurans inhabit both ...
An allometric study of pulmonary morphometric parameters in birds, with mammalian comparisons
(1989)
Comprehensive pulmonary morphometric data from 42 species of birds representing ten orders were compared with those of other vertebrates, especially mammals, relating the comparisons to the varying biological needs of these ...
