Abstract
SUMMARY The authors present morphological, morphometric and histochemical study of the salivary glands of the Colubridae Leimadophis viridis (Gunther, 1862) (Ophidea). Based on the results, the authors concluded: (i) the acini of supralabial, infralabial and premaxillary glands are formed by mucous and mucoserous cells; Duvernoy's gland by seromucous cells; (ii) mucous cells show neutral and sulphated mucosubstances and sialic acid. Mucoserous cells show a neutral mucosubstance, sialic acid and protein radicals. Seromucous cells of Duvernoy's gland show a neutral mucosub- stance and protein radicals. The acinar area, height of tubule and duct cells, and nuclear volume of acinar, tubule and duct cells were evaluated morphometrically.
