Mineral deposition in bacteria-filled and bacteria-free calcium bodies in the crustacean Hyloniscus riparius (Isopoda: Oniscidea).

Crustacean calcium bodies are epithelial sacs which contain a mineralized matrix.The objectives of Washing Machine Foot Pad this study were to describe the microscopic anatomy of calcium bodies in the terrestrial isopod Hyloniscus riparius and to establish whether they undergo molt-related structural changes.We performed 3D reconstruction of the ca
