Hematologic parameters of the nine-banded armadillo,Dasypus novemcinctus

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology A, Comparative Physiology, 1972
Abstract 1. Normal values for the hematologic parameters of the nine-banded armadillo ( Dasypus novemcinctus ) were determined. The results agree well with those of other authors. 2. Blood chemistry values are reported for the first time. Mean values for these are generally close to human normal ranges except for LDH and SGOT, which are both ...

Crystalline inclusion bodies in the epididymis of the nine-banded armadillo

Journal of Ultrastructure Research, 1973
The middle segment of the epididymis of the nine-banded armadillo has been shown to contain a crystalloid inclusion apparently not described in this or other species.

The chromosomes of the nine-banded armadillo, Dasypus novemcinctus

Chromosoma, 1962
The chromosomes of the nine-banded armadillo, Dasypus novemcinctus, were studied using cultured peripheral leukocytes, tissue cells and direct preparation of male germ cells. The diploid number was found to be 64 in the blood and tissue cells, the haploid number was 32 in the testicular preparations.

Metal accumulation in wild nine-banded armadillos

Ecotoxicology, 2013
Nine-banded armadillos (Dasypus novemcinctus) are widespread and abundant New World mammals with a lifestyle that entails prolonged, intimate contact with soils. Thus, armadillos would seem a promising candidate as a sentinel species to monitor chemical contamination in terrestrial ecosystems.

Ultrastructure of the salivary bladder of the nine-banded armadillo

Cell and Tissue Research, 1976
The nine-banded armadillo possesses a salivary bladder which is a dilated portion of the main duct of the submandibular gland at its origin. The wall of the bladder is composed of an epithelium, a submucosa and a thick coat of skeletal muscle. The ultrastructure of the epithelium reveals that it is complex and consists of three cell types: 1) principal

Fibroma in a Nine-banded armadillo (Dasypus novemcingtus)

Journal of Comparative Pathology, 1983
An adult male Nine-banded armadillo (Dasypus nonemcintus) had a large tumour between the first and second phalanges of the right fore-foot. The tumour was of dermal origin, consisted of dense interlacing bundles of collagen, and contained numerous fibroblasts with elongate nuclei and sparse cytoplasm.

Epithalamus of the nine-banded armadillo, Dasypus novemcinctus

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Physiology, 1986
The epithalamus of embryonic, neonatal and adult nine-banded armadillo (Dasypus novemcinctus) was examined for evidence of pineal-like tissue. The evagination of the diencephalic roof (the anlage of the epiphysis) was not found in any embryonic specimens.

Influences on Vigilance in Nine‐banded Armadillos

Ethology, 1995
AbstractFunctional aspects of vigilance in nine‐banded armadillos (Edentata: Dasypus novemcinctus) were investigated. Data on solitary individuals revealed few age or sex differences in time spent vigilant. However, vigilance increased in most social contexts and was highest during intraspecific agonistic encounters.

Ultrastructure of the parotid gland of the nine‐banded armadillo

The Anatomical Record, 1977
AbstractThe parotid gland of the nine‐banded armadillo (Dasypus novemcinctus) was examined by electron microscopy. In general, the ultrastructural morphology of this gland appears similar to that described in other species. The most unusual feature of the gland is that the secretory granules of the acinar cells contain a wide variety of substructures ...
