The Digestive System of Larval Argulus Japonicus (Branchiura) [PDF]
Abstract The digestive system of first stage Argulus japonicus larvae is described following reconstruction from serial sections. The morphology of the digestive tract is similar to adult branchiurans. It consists of an esophagus, esophageal funnel, anterior midgut (crop), midgut diverticula, posterior midgut (intestine) and a hindgut.
