    Notes: Summary The notochord of Ichthyophis glutinosus and I. kohtaoensis consists of peripheral flattened cells characterized by a well-developed system of rough endoplasmic reticulum, bundles of tonofilaments, and abundant glycogen particles. These cells contain furthermore fairly high activities of α-naphtyl-acetate esterase and 4-chloro-5-bromoindoxyl acetate esterase as well as acid phosphatase which was found in lysosomal localization. The huge intracellular vacuoles of the centrally situated cells possibly originate from electron translucent spaces within the glycogen fields of the peripheral cells. The notochord sheath consists of variously differentiated layers of collagen fibers and of an elastica externa. The diameters of the collagen fibers increase from the inner towards the outer region of the sheath. A peculiar feature of the Ichthyophis notochord sheath is a ring of mineralized collagen. The notochord of the caecilians investigated is compared with that of anurans, urodeles, and several groups of fish.

    Notes: Summary The digital pads of three tree-frogs (genus Rhacophorus) have been studied by transmission and scanning electron microscopy. The distal parts of the outermost epidermal cells are separated by wide gaps. The surface of these cells is characterized by stout microvillus-like processes. The apical plasma membrane is reinforced by a layer of electron-dense material attached to its inner side. The cytoplasm contains bundles of tonofilaments extending into the apical cellular processes, numerous ribosomes and abundant granular and vesicular inclusions. In the connective tissue under the epidermis mucous glands — characterized by granule-containing, mitochondria-rich and smooth muscle cells — and an extensive nerve plexus occur. The latter innervates the mucous glands and in addition consists of sensory fibres which have been found in connection with lamellated sensory corpuscles. In respect of the degree of adaption towards a tree-dwelling life, the excluvisely tree inhabiting species (Rhacophorus reinwardti) appears to be particularly advanced.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Leberblindsack, Epibranchialrinne und Endostyl von Branchiostoma lanceolatum wurden enzymhistochemisch und elektronenmikroskopisch untersucht. Folgende Fermente wurden nachgewiesen: alkalische und saure Phosphatase, ATP-ase, Aminopeptidase, α-Naphthyl-acetat- und Indoxyl-acetat-Esterase, Glucosaminidase, Arylsulfatase, NADH- und NADPH-Diaphorase. Die Epibranchialrinne erwies sich als besonders enzymreich. Die Epithelzellen des „Leber“-Blindsackes besitzen basal zahlreiche Fetteinschlüsse und oberhalb des Kerns große Granula, die vermutlich Verdauungsenzyme enthalten. Das Epithel der Epibranchialrinne enthält z.T. basal sehr große Vakuolen sowie apikale Sekretionsgranula. Im Endostyl lassen sich verschiedene Zonen nachweisen. In den esterasereichen Zonen 2 und 4/5 finden sich Hinweise auf Proteinsynthese (granuläres E.R. und Sekretionsgranula, bei denen es sich zum Teil um Schleimballen handelt). Zone 4 ist weiterhin besonders durch ihren Gehalt an Lipideinschlüssen gekennzeichnet. In den an saurer Phosphatase reichen Zonen 1, 3 und 6 sind die zilientragenden Zellen in charakteristischen Säulen angeordnet.
    Notes: Summary Cytochemical and ultrastructural studies have been carried out on the hepatic caecum, hyperpharyngeal groove and endostyle of Branchiostoma lanceolatum. The following enzymes have been demonstrated: acid and alkaline phosphatase, ATP-ase, aminopeptidase, α-naphthyl-acetate- and indoxyl-acetate esterase, glucosaminidase, arylsulphatase, NADH-and NADPH-diaphorase. The hyperpharyngeal groove proved to be particularly rich in enzymes. The epithelial cells of the hepatic caecum possess at their bases numerous lipid droplets and in the supranuclear cytoplasm granules which presumably contain digestive enzymes. The epithelium of the hyperpharyngeal groove is characterized by large basal vacuoles and apical secretion granules. The electron microscope confirms the existence of several cell zones in the endostyle. The cells of the esterase rich zones 2 and 4/5 possess a well developed system of granulated E. R. as well as globular inclusions which presumably represent mucus droplets. In zone 4 in addition a great number of lipid inclusions and specific electron dense secretion granules occur. In the acid phosphatase rich zones 1, 3 and 6 the cilia-bearing cells are arranged in typical columns.

    Notes: Epithelial and cuticular linings of the stomach investigated in three species representing different genera of the Mysidacea are elaborated into a set of structural specializations dividing the stomach longitudinally into one dorsal and two ventral channels. The dorsal, or food, channel contains ingested food and retains coarse particles, which eventually are transported into the midgut through a funnel. The ventral, or filtration, channels, which are separated by an anterior and a posterior median ridge (anteromedianum, inferomedianum), contain fine particles and soluble materials extracted from the dorsal channel through two filter systems: primary filters, which lie anteriorly on either side of the anteromedianum, and posterior secondary filters, which are located on the inferomedianum. The final filtrate is transported into the ventral caeca or midgut glands. The ultrastructure of the cuticle lining the lumen of the stomach shows several specializations, the most prominent of which are stout spines and delicate filter devices. The epithelium is multilayered in circumscribed areas (the lateralia). The basement lamina is extremely developed in the inferomedianum. Detailed knowledge of the microscopic anatomy and the ultrastructure of the stomach allows identification of several homologous gastric structures among different peracaridean groups and in Decapoda.
