The mature spermatozoa from the main duct of the Demanian system of the free-living marine nematode Admirandus multicavus (Enoplida: Oncholaimidae) were studied by the transmission electron microscopy. The main duct is an epithelial tube with thick basal lamina. The dilated part of the duct is occupied by cluster of densely packed spermatozoa 7–8 µm in size, while the narrow part contains occasional strongly elongated sperm cells. The centre of spermatozoa is occupied by a nucleus with poorly condensed chromatin surrounded by a distinct nuclear envelope, the presence of which confirms isolation of enoplids from all other clades of nematodes. The prevalent components of sperm cytoplasm are ‘membranous organelles’ (MO) which resemble strongly elongated thread-like osmiophilic cisternae densely packed into bundles. Small numerous mitochondria are interspersed between bundles of MOs. Spermatozoa form pseudopods that reflect putative amoeboid cell motility. Amorphous nucleus, thread-like MOs, and numerous minute mitochondria are likely to represent preadaptation to squeezing through the narrow tubular communications of the Demanian system.

It appears as the first prominent structure during embryogenesis, serves for swimming and filter-feeding, then degenerates or is modified after metamorpho-sis. Using cutting-edge confocal laser scanning microscopy, we investigated the detailed structure of the Dimorphilus gyrociliatus prototroch area and demonstrated that it is much more complex than previously thought. The first row of ciliated cells differentiates at the trochophore stage. By juvenile stage, three rows of ciliated cells are located in the prostomium region: an anterior row of cells with long (14–16 µm) cilia, an intermediate row of cells with short (3–4 µm) cilia, and a posterior row of cells with cilia of middle length (9– 10 µm). Each ciliated row consists of two bands of cilia-bearing cells. We suggest that the anterior row represents what is commonly considered a prototroch. At the same time, the intermediate row is considered homologous to the adoral ciliary zone, and the posterior row is considered homologous to the metatroch. Older individuals retain this ciliated apparatus until the last days of their life. With age, cilia in prototroch and metatroch become twice shorter; and the prototroch gets wider, at the end consisting of four lines of ciliated cells. inhibition of muscle contraction, the freshly hatched juveniles maintain the ability to uptake food particles. These findings confirm earlier observations showing that D. gyrociliatus uses its complex ciliated apparatus in the prostomial region for filter-feeding in addition to bulbus-scrabbing. Thus, we clarified the organization of the ciliary bands of D. gyrociliatus located in the prostomial region, documented their persistence during ontogenesis, as well as confirmed the participation of the ciliary apparatus in active food intake. These data support the paedomorphic character demonstrated for Dimorphilus gyrociliatus .","PeriodicalId":37977,"journal":{"name":"Invertebrate Zoology","volume":"142 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72419890","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The life cycle and structure of planktonic stages vary among brachiopod taxa. Many rhynchonelliform brachiopods, including those in the order Rhynchonellida, brood three-lobed larvae (i.e., the cephalulae) in the mantle cavity. However, no cephalulae were found in the mantle cavity of the rhynchonellid Hemithiris psittacea (Gmelin, 1791) from the White Sea. In this research, artificial insemination and induced spawning were used to study the ontogeny of H. psittacea from the White Sea Biological Station of Moscow State University (Kandalak-shskii Bay of the White Sea). After fertilization, a thick egg envelope forms around the zygote and adheres to the substrate. Cleavage, gastrulation, and formation of the three-lobed cephalula occur within the egg envelope. A worm-like competent cephalula hatches from the egg envelope and swims along the substrate rather than in the water column. The cephalula of H. psittacea differs in structure from the terebratulid larva, which actively swims in the water column. In contrast to terebratulid larva, the cephalula of H. psittacea lacks the eyespots and has shorter and less abundant setae. Development of H. psittacea from the White Sea proceeds in the external environment rather in the lophophore of the female. These results are inconsistent with the published data on H. psittacea from the San Juan Channel (Washington, USA), whose larvae develop outside the egg envelope in the lophophore of the female. A possible explanation is that Hemithiris from the San Juan Channel and from the White Sea represent separate species. The current report for H. psittacea from the White Sea is the first to describe embryonization of larval development for a rhynchonelliform.","PeriodicalId":37977,"journal":{"name":"Invertebrate Zoology","volume":"153 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75691383","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although sponge genomes show the toolkits for metabolism of some neuroactive substances, only few genes of monoamines metabolism were found. We studied larvae of the freshwater sponge Eunapius fragilis to analyze the immunoreaction to one of the monoamines – dopamine (DA). We found dopamine-like immunoreactivity in structures located under every flagellum in the larval epithelial cells. Double labeling with anti-DA and anti-58K Golgi protein antibodies, confocal microscopy with improved signal-to-noise ratio and super-resolution (Airyscan), and ultrastructural electron microscopy analysis revealed that the DA-like-immunopositive structures are closely associated with the Golgi apparatus. A similar pattern of immunolabeling was reported in the blastulae of sea urchins, whose ciliary activity is known to be affected by monoamines. Our finding of DA-like immunoreactive structures in sponge ciliated cells provide morphological basis for considering monoamines as potential intracellular regulators of flagellar/ciliary activity.","PeriodicalId":37977,"journal":{"name":"Invertebrate Zoology","volume":"54 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74787116","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
