Abstract

This work provides a contribution to the understanding of the structure of the photophores in the mesopelagic fish Chauliodus sloani (family Stomiidae), which occasionally are stranded along the coasts of the Strait of Messina (Central Mediterranean Sea). The analysis was carried out through the study of the structure and ultrastructure of the ventral photophores, and it also includes an immunohistochemical investigation that offers valuable insights into the function of these organs. Studies on photophores help clarify many aspects of the ecology of this species, which represents an important functional link in the marine food web.

这项工作为了解偶尔搁浅在墨西拿海峡（地中海中部）沿岸的中远洋鱼类Chauliodus sloani （Stomiidae科）的光载体结构提供了贡献。该分析是通过研究腹侧光细胞的结构和超微结构进行的，它还包括免疫组织化学研究，为这些器官的功能提供了有价值的见解。对光载体的研究有助于阐明该物种生态学的许多方面，它代表了海洋食物网的重要功能环节。

期刊介绍： Animals (ISSN 2076-2615) is an international and interdisciplinary scholarly open access journal. It publishes original research articles, reviews, communications, and short notes that are relevant to any field of study that involves animals, including zoology, ethnozoology, animal science, animal ethics and animal welfare. However, preference will be given to those articles that provide an understanding of animals within a larger context (i.e., the animals'' interactions with the outside world, including humans). There is no restriction on the length of the papers. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical research in as much detail as possible. Full experimental details and/or method of study, must be provided for research articles. Articles submitted that involve subjecting animals to unnecessary pain or suffering will not be accepted, and all articles must be submitted with the necessary ethical approval (please refer to the Ethical Guidelines for more information).
