- The Journal of parasitology
- 1 August 1989
A new apicomplexan species, Perkinsus atlanticus, is described from gill filaments of the clam Ruditapes decussatus (Bivalvia) from Portugal, where it causes great mortality. The zoospores differ… Expand
Morphological characterization of the hemocytes of the clam, Ruditapes decussatus (Mollusca: Bivalvia).

Hemocytes play an important role in internal defence in molluscs. The morphology of hemolymph cells was studied for the first time in Ruditapes decussatus. Two main types of hemocytes (hyalinocytes… Expand
Hemolymph cell types of the mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis
- M. J. Carballal, M. C. López, C. Azevedo, A. Villalba
- Biology
- 22 May 1997
Two types of circulating hemocytes were identified in Mytilus galloprovincialis hemolymph: hyalinocytes and granulocytes. The hyalinocytes are agranular cells and show a central nucleus surrounded by… Expand
