| Abstract | An attempt of a complete study of antennae of a Crustacea Mysidacea Antromysis juberthiei Bacesco et Orghidan has been undertaken and leads us to investigate the tegumental glands located in these appendages. Similar glands are probably present in other parts of the animal, both in males and females; as we have been able to see after the ecdysis, canals very similar to those present in the glands of the antennae remain attached to the old cuticle in different parts of the body such as abdomen, telson and uropodes. As far as Mysidacea are concerned the tegumentary glands were unknown, only the digestive glands were described by Gelderd (I 909). In other Crustaceans many tegumental glands associated with the cuticle have been described (Y onge 1932, Radu et al. 1942, Gorvett 1946, 1951, 1952, 1956, Patane 1955, Maccagno-Paulucci 1957, Fahrenbach 1961, Messner 1963, Stevenson 1964, Park 1966, Cals et al. 1971, Pochon-Masson et al. 1975), but only a few of them have been studied with the electron microscope. |
