Abstract
The study ofMicrocotyle labracis Van Beneden et Hesse, 1863 using the scanning electron microscope indicates the presence of a tegument invested with numerous microvilli which increase the body surface area. Presumed sensory endings are of uniciliated type.
Résumé
L'étude deMicrocotyle labracis Van Beneden et Hesse, 1863 au microscope électronique à balayage montre la présence d'un tégument recouvert de nombreuses microvillosités qui augmentent la surface du corps. Les récepteurs sensoriels semblent tous appartenir au type unicilié.
