These cell types are rare in other invertebrate ganglia. Individual neurons also contain a variety of different ion channels. both spiking and nonspiking neurons are found. Some neurons are mul-timodal interneurons. Habituation a

Comparative characterization of the nervous system of the Turbellariastem in various representatives of the class. The most primitive state, found in the Acoela, is predominantly plexiform with a varying number of longitudinal trunks. Three, and in some cases four, longitudinal trunks are found in the Proseriata and Temnocephalida. Commissures appear in the Macrostom

Experimental evidence for the origins of determinative development in the polyclad turbellariansalians. The polyclads are of particular interest because they provide a link between the regulative development of acoels and the determinative development of annelids and molluscs. Single blastomeres were deleted at the two- and four-cell stages by puncture through the eggshell membrane with tungst

Eggshell formation in polyclads (Turbellaria)as well as secretions of shell glands (SGS), play roles in eggshell formation. As the oocytes pass through the portion of the female tract where the shell glands open, they are surronded by a two-layered envelope of SGS. This envelope prevents the dispersion of SFGs discharged after oviposition, and
