| Eurypterid cuticle was chitinous and of varying thickness, but generally very thin, and preserved specimens are usually crushed. |
|
| Phoronida is a second lophophorate phylum, comprising coelomate, vermiform animals living in chitinous tubes. |
|
| Upon ecdysis, a chitinous duplicature of the exoskeleton is shed and a growth band is added to the valves. |
|
| The chitinous cuticle that covers the infundibulum extends into and covers the inner surface of the acetabulum. |
|
| When something dark and chitinous scuttled out from the scrub, Darius was forced to bodily haul him out of its way. |
|
| A chitinous exoskeleton is not rigid enough to support a mass of that size. |
|
| The front part, called the cephalothorax, is enclosed within a relatively hard and unyielding chitinous shell. |
|
| The bird regurgitates pellets of indigestible material such as fur, bones and the chitinous remains of insects. |
|
| Members of the group that have been isolated lack the chitinous cell wall that is characteristic of fungi. |
|
| The phoronids are habitants of the marine benthos, each individual produces a chitinous tube in which one moves freely, being able to retract. |
|
| Thus, it represents a very different barrier than the underlying chitinous layers. |
|
| It was then possible to observe the characteristics of the remaining chitinous gland intima, which are not apparent from examination of an intact gland and reservoir. |
|
| Attached to the surface are coiled serpulid worm skeletons, muddy or chitinous tube worm casts up to 5 cm long, brittle starfish, and benthic foraminifera. |
|
| Segment A7 as a chitinous ring, posterior and anterior apophyses short. |
|
| Reckoning that the rectal lining of the louse is chitinous and so can withstand mechanical trauma, Weigl inoculated lice anally with these rickettsiae. |
|
| Another treatment includes kerosene flotation for chitinous materials. |
|
| Lobster anatomy includes the cephalothorax which fuses the head and the thorax, both of which are covered by a chitinous carapace, and the abdomen. |
|
| Spat settlement of the giant scallop, Placopecten magellanicus, and other bivalve species on artificial filamentous collectors coated with chitinous material. |
|
| Crustacean zooplankton have been found to house the bacterium Vibrio cholerae, which causes cholera, by allowing the cholera vibrios to attach to their chitinous exoskeletons. |
