The chapter reports data on the oogenesis and eggshell formation in some Acoela obtained by our group over the years by means of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and cytochemical techniques. In this review we show how TEM and appropriate cytochemical methods have been helpful in clarifying issues related to female germ cell differentiation and more in general to the cellular aspects of the reproductive biology in these lower metazoans. The ultrastructural findings have been compared with those from other Acoelomorpha (Acoela + Nemertodermatida) and rhabditophoran Platyhelminthes

Abstract
The chapter reports data on the oogenesis and eggshell formation in some Acoela obtained by our group over the years by means of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and cytochemical techniques. In this review we show how TEM and appropriate cytochemical methods have been helpful in clarifying issues related to female germ cell differentiation and more in general to the cellular aspects of the reproductive biology in these lower metazoans. The ultrastructural findings have been compared with those from other Acoelomorpha (Acoela + Nemertodermatida) and rhabditophoran PlatyhelminthesFile in questo prodotto:
