... in Testudines, we studied the hearts of loggerhead sea turtles, Caretta caretta ( n =7), using immunohistochemistry and histology. Surprisingly, we found no evidence of prominent atrial smooth muscle in C. caretta . However, smooth muscle was readily identified in the sinus venosus. Our results suggest...

However, it is not fully understood how the visual systems of nocturnal reef fishes develop and adapt to these significant ecological shifts over their lives. Therefore, we used a histological...
