Regeneration time and morphology of the inhalant siphon of Fonax denticulatus linnaeus, 1758 (Bivalvia, Donacidae) after amputation
To study the process of regeneration and its effect on the morphology of the inhalant siphon of a tellineacean bivalve, Donax denticulatus, individuals were artificially amputated and placed in aquaria under laboratory conditions, in the absence of predators. After amputation, two individuals were s...
