{"title":"[Development of the cloaca and its ulterior transformations in the polypterids (Pisces)].","authors":"W M De Smet","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>Generally spoken cloacae have been but little studied. In Polypterus, a brachiopterygian fish, a cloaca only exists during parts of the embryonal and larval life and it gets replaced by structures consisting of an anus and an urinary sinus. In the beginning of embryonal life the posterior opening of the body seems to be nothing else than the original blastoporus. The wall of this opening acquires evaginations; the anlagen of the excretory ducts come in contact with them, establishing in that way a structure, that merits the name of cloaca. During the elongation of the post-vitellin body, the latter gets shifted from the level of metamere XII to that of metamere XXX. Another migration of the cloaca occurs when the digestive system acquires its development. Finally the cloaca may be found under the 47th and 48th muscular segments (at least in the species Polypterus senegalus senegalus Cuvier). During these stages the excretory ducts have build up an urinary sinus that gets separated from the gut. In adults no communication exists any more between the gut and the urinary sinus; the latter is a very destinct organ that may have an impair or pair aspect according to its being filled up. Because of the establishing of a communication with the genital ducts the sinus becomes an uro-genital sinus in the adult.</p>","PeriodicalId":75428,"journal":{"name":"Acta zoologica et pathologica Antverpiensia","volume":" 62","pages":"45-72"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1975-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12375996","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}

After the gastrulation the mesoderm is not completely separated from the endoderm. The appearance of cavities in the mesoderm is quite limited and it even is but ephemeral in the superior part (in the epimeres). Lateral extensions of the mesomeric zones of the six most anterior metameres (especially metameres II to V) form the anlage of the pronephric duct. The latter will continue its way in a posterior and inferior direction without any participation of other mesoderm material. The elongation of the undifferentiated material that had been concentrated around the blastoporus will be responsible for the formation of the major part of the body, and mesoderm will play an important role in it. An enterocelic relation between mesoderm and endoderm in the anal region, as Kerr had conjected to see it, is due to the existence of evaginations of endoderm but gives no support to the enterocelic theory.</p>","PeriodicalId":75428,"journal":{"name":"Acta zoologica et pathologica Antverpiensia","volume":" 62","pages":"3-28"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1975-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12414687","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}
