Electron Microscopy of Retinal Tapetum (Caiman crocodilus)
Albrecht von Graefes Archiv f�r Klinische und Experimentelle Ophthalmologie, 1978The distribution and ultrastructure of the retinal tapetum lucidum in Caiman crocodilus is described. In the light adapted eye the tapetum is recognized in the superior half of the fundus. It consists of guanine containing crystalline platelets which are spread almost over the entire retinal pigment epithelial cells which can be divided into different ...

The paleostriatal system of Caiman crocodilus
Journal of Comparative Neurology, 1980AbstractThe organization and projections of the presumed homologue of the mammalian corpus striatum, the ventrolateral area (VLA) of the telencephalon, were investigated in the reptile Caiman crocodilus. The caiman VLA was divided into two major cell fields on the basis of cytoarchitectonic criteria: a rostromedial small celled field (VLA s.c.) and a ...

1971
The karyotypes shown here were obtained from squash preparations of the spleen of young specimens. Both male and female have similar karyotypes; sex chromosome heteromorphism was not detected in either sex. The specimens were captured in the Amazonas region, in Brazil.

Organization of ascending spinal projections in Caiman crocodilus
Cell and Tissue Research, 1981Ascending spinal projections in the caiman (Caiman crocodilus) were demonstrated with Nauta and Fink-Heimer methods following hemisections of the third spinal segment in a series of twelve animals. These results were compared with earlier data in the literature obtained from a turtle, a snake, and a lizard using the same experimental and histological ...

Dorsal thalamic nuclei in Caiman crocodilus
Neuroscience Letters, 2014In Caiman crocodilus, identification of nuclei that comprise the dorsal thalamus was determined by: injections of retrograde tracers into cortex/pallium; injections of retrograde tracers into the noncortical telencephalon; and injections of anterograde tracers into thalamic nuclei.

Veterinary Clinical Pathology, 2011
Background: Commercial farming of Caiman crocodilus crocodilus has had an impact on the use of this species for meat consumption and the leather industry. Spectacled Caimans comprise part of the South American plains biodiversity. Misinterpretation of laboratory data is a risk owing to the limited hematologic and serum biochemical values available for

Diving Bradycardia and Withdrawal Bradycardia in Caiman crocodilus
Nature, 1969DIVING animals have been reported to respond with a drastic reduction in heart rate when their head is submerged; this is known as “diving bradycardia”. The phenomenon has been reported in dozens of species including some that do not ordinarily dive1. The bradycardia is extreme; for example, the heart rate of the alligator drops from 41 to 3 (ref.
