Cover Story: Polyplacophorans, commonly known as chitons, are benthic marine molluscs characterized by their eight articulated dorsal shell plates surrounded by a flexible marginal girdle. To obtain new information about the scantily studied digestive system of chitons, the oesophagus, stomach and intestine of Chaetopleura angulata and Acanthochitona fascicularis were investigated. Light and transmission electron microscopy techniques were used to morphologically and histochemically characterise the diverse cell types found in the digestive tract epithelium, which consist of absorptive cells, secretory cells and basal cells with enteroendocrine features. Additionally, stomach content examination in both species revealed a previously unknown omnivorous diet. View this paper.
