The Effect of Fluorine on the Chicken Proventriculus
Abstract THE relationship of fluorine and the growth and development of the proventriculus has never been extensively studied. Our interest grew from an experiment with graded levels of calcium fluoride and sodium fluoride (Gardiner, Parker and Carrick, 1959) in which it was observed that the glandular stomach of chicks fed high levels of sodium ...

ABSTRACT The pine weevil is one of the largest species in the jewel beetle (Buprestidae) family found in Central Europe and Turkey. Chalcophora mariana is generally considered a secondary guest and primarily develops in weakened, decaying, or recently dead pine trees.

The morphological development of the proventriculus in the phyllosomal and nisto stages of the scyllarid slipper lobster is described and illustrated. Possible flow pathways of food particles is deduced from the structure of the proventriculus.

Life‐stage variation in Sable Shearwater (Ardenna carneipes) physiology assessed using proteomics
Life‐stage transitions in seabirds involve substantial shifts in physiological demands, yet the molecular mechanisms underpinning these changes remain poorly resolved. Here we applied untargeted data‐independent acquisition mass spectrometry (DIA‐MS) to characterize and compare the plasma proteomes of fledgling and adult Sable Shearwaters Ardenna ...

A redescription of Cryptosporidium galli Pavlasek, 1999 (Apicomplexa: Cryptosporidiidae) from birds [PDF]
Clyptosporidium galli Pavlasek, 1999, described from the feces of birds, is redescribed with additional molecular and biological data. Oocysts are ellipsoidal, are passed fully sporulated, lack sporocysts, and measure 8.25 × 6.3 μm (range 8.0-8.5 × 6.2-6.

Proventriculus of three nemobiinae crickets (Orthoptera: Grylloidea: Trigonidiidae)
The morphology of the proventriculus may supply useful taxonomic characters for some species of crickets. This study evaluated if the proventriculus can be used to distinguish three species of Nemobiinae crickets: Phoremia sp. n., Zucchiella sp.

Defecation in preparation for ecdysis drives microplastic clearance in cricket nymphs
In preparation for ecdysis, cricket nymphs cease feeding and gradually clear their gut contents via frass production, which removes most ingested MPs from their digestive tract. Following exoskeletal moulting, the foregut lining, including any remaining MPs, is shed and excreted alongside frass approximately 6 h later.

Waders in a sea of debris: a global overview
ABSTRACT The impact of plastic pollution on ecosystems and marine fauna is well documented, although research into its effects on waders (also known as shorebirds) remains limited. Given that waders are exposed to coastal marine litter, this exposure could be a significant factor in the decline of their populations. This study aims to assess the global

The proventriculus of Cicindelidae : systematics and functional morphology [PDF]
Internal structures of the proventriculus of adult tiger beetles were examined to determine their function and taxonomic and phylogenetic value. The overall appearance of the proventriculus suggested an intricate filter designed to permit the flow of ...
