Abstract
The present report is concerned with the transmission electron microscopic observations of the consumed hairs in an Australian lobster's stomach. The lamellar cuticles of these hairs were observed and their minimum diameters of melanin granules of cortices were measured by an imaging analyzer. The lamellar cuticles of these hairs consisted of two or three layers and there was no significant difference between them and Aberdeen Angus's hairs in mean the minimum diameters of melanin granules of cortices. Consequently, these hairs in an Australian lobster's stomach were identical to Aberdeen Angus's hairs.
