| Abstract: | Histological development of Japanese flounder Paralichthys olivaceus larval skin and ultrastructural difference of skin between reared normal and malpigmented Japanese flounder were studied
with light microscopy (LM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results show that the skin develops slowly before
the metamorphosis, while at the onset of metamorphosis, the skin develops quickly and becomes complete in structure till about
50 d after being hatched. Ultrastructural observation on the normal and malpigmented skins shows that the iridophore and melanophore
are adjacent to each other. Profile and structure of the two kinds of pigment cells are more complete in the skin of normal
ocular side than in the skin of pigmented blind side. The ultrastructure of typical chloride cell was observed in the skin
of Japanese flounder larvae for the first time. |
