  • Title: The fine structure of epidermal lines on arms and head of postembryonic Sepia officinalis and Loligo vulgaris (Mollusca, Cephalopoda).
    Author: Sundermann G.
    Journal: Cell Tissue Res; 1983; 232(3):669-77. PubMed ID: 6883464.
    Abstract:
    The structure and cell types of the epidermal lines that are found on the surface of the head and arms of Sepia officinalis and Loligo vulgaris, were investigated by light- and transmission electron microscopy. The lines consist of ciliated cells and non-ciliated, accessory cells. The axon of the ciliated cell and the ultrastructure of the latter indicate that this element is sensory; therefore, the epidermal lines of cephalopods may be regarded as a type of sensory organ.
