Prepared slides made 10 yrs ago, using
Hemalum stain. Nuclei stain red, muscle
green, vesicular leucocytes pink, spherical
leucocytes bright green, polypidea red brown,
walls translucent blue.
- this was for Electra millosa - two colours
would change for other species - however,
nuclei would always stain red. As
you go through focus see nuclei in
muscle. "Leucocytes" are simple polyarchaeida
cert. to G.L. muscle is striated;
certainly all parts of digestive tract
muscle are striated. After questioning
she did perhaps wonder if
sphincter muscle & tentacular sheath
muscles may not be smooth. Again
certainly all retractor muscles etc.
are striated.
Polypidea in Avicularium Bugula
This consists of 2 pouches - the
atrium & stomadeum; polypidea does
not go beyond 1st stage of differentiation
when it is in avicularium. Noted.
muscles in beak & also finer muscles
opening operculum of beak.
