In the present study, we focused on the morphology of L. sceleratus gills using gross anatomy, scanning electron microscopy as well as light microscopy. Results of this study revealed that the gill openings appeared as simple slits anterior to the pectoral fin without distinct opercular cover. The gill system consisted of three pairs of gill arches carrying two rows of gill rakers on its concave border and gill filaments on its convex border. SEM showed that all surfaces of the gill arch were characterized by the presence of the longitudinal ridges with many taste buds in addition to many spines around the rakers. Histologically, the gill arch was composed of curved bar of hyaline cartilage with slightly elevated area corresponding to the sites of gill... |

This study was performed to investigate the histomorphological characters of the Egyptian fruit bat stomach using the light and scanning electron microscope. The stomachs of fourteen adult normal healthy Egyptian fruit bats of both sexes were used. Stomach was tubular with an elongated fundic part and a long narrow pyloric part. Internally, the superficial epithelium was disposed in filiform form, the longitudinal rugaes extended throughout the length of the stomach, their numbers were high but they were thin and branched in the fundic region, while in the cardiac and pyloric region reached to 3 or 4 thick longitudinal and not branched rugaes. Under the scanning electron microscopy, we found differences in the appearance of middle part with the... |
