Morphology of the arthrodial membrane gland in a Neotropical harvester (Arachnida: Opiliones)
. We describe a gland in the arthrodial membrane of the coxa-trochanter articulation in the fourth pair of legs in the Neotropical harvester Mischonyx squalidus Bertkau, 1880. Externally the glandular area has a rough appearance with pores on its surface, with folds of the arthrodial membrane. Internally, its secretory cells have spherical secretory vesicles, smooth endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria and ducts that exit from the cells and cross the arthrodial membrane. Histochemical tests indicate the presence of proteins and neutral glycoproteins. The function of the gland might be to produce lubricating products that allow better movement of the coxa-trochanter region.
期刊介绍:
Zoologia, the scientific journal of the Sociedade Brasileira de Zoologia (SBZ), is an international peer-reviewed, open-access Zoological journal that publishes original research on systematics, evolution, taxonomy, nomenclature, biogeography, morphology, physiology, biology, ecology, symbiosis, conservation, behavior, genetics and allied fields. The journal, formerly known as Revista Brasileira de Zoologia, publishes original articles authored by both members and non-members of the Society. The manuscripts should be written exclusively in English.
