摘要
A simple, quick technique for the preparation of rotifer trophi for scanning electron microscopy is described. The method permits visual monitoring of the extraction process and does not require critical point drying of the specimens. Micrographs showing fine, structural detail of the hard parts of the mastax of representatives of the following genera are presented: Asplanchna, Conochilus, Filinia, Hexarthra, Keratella, Proalides, Synchaeta, and Trichocerca.
