Figure 11

Adult lophophoral base of Hislopia malayensis. (a) Lateral view on the lophophoral base showing its epidermal layer, the lophophoral ring coelom and parts of the nervous system. (b) Similar view as in (a) but with the epidermal layer of the lophophoral base displayed transparently. (c) Slight oblique view from the distal side of the lophophoral base showing the lophophoral coelom and the anally situated central nervous system. (d) Detail of the nervous system showing the junction of the circum-oral nerve ring (asterisk) and the tentacle nerves. Abbreviations: afn - abfrontal tentacle nerve, afnb - abfrontal nerve body, afnr - abfrontal tentacle nerve root, cgl - cerebral ganglion, con - circum-oral nerve trunk, if - intertentacular nerve fork, itnc - intertentacular nerve cell, itp - intertentacular pit, lfn - latero-frontal tentacle nerve, mfn - medio-frontal tentacle nerve, t - tentacle, tc - tentacle coelom Colors: blue - epidermal layer of the lophophoral base, crimson - lophophoral coelom, yellow - nervous system. Scale in (a-c) = 50 μm, in (d) = 20 μm
