Adaptations of a tropical swamp worm, alma emini, for subsistence in a H2S-rich habitat: evolution of endosymbiotic bacteria, sulfide metabolizing bodies, and novel processes of elimination of neutralized sulfide complexes
(1998)
The epithelial cell lining of the respiratory groove of Alma emini, an oligochaete glossoscolecid worm that lives in a hydrogen sulfide (H2S)-rich tropical swamp, was investigated by transmission electron microscopy to ...
Ultrastructural characterization of the pulmonary cellular defences in the lung of a bird, the rock dove, Columba livia
(1998)
Free (surface) avian respiratory macrophages (FARMs) were harvested by lavage of the lung/air–sac system of the rock dove, Columba livia. The presence of FARMs in the atria and infundibula was confirmed by scanning electron ...
Structure and Function of the Axillary Organ of the Gulf Toadfish, Opsanus beta (Goode and Bean)
(ScienceDirect, 1998)
The structure of the axillary organ of a batrachoidid species, the gulf toadfish (Opsanus beta Goode and Bean 1879), has been examined and several simple experiments designed to elucidate its function performed. Electron ...
