The epithelial layers of the body wall in hornerid bryozoans (Stenolaemata: Cyclostomatida)

Yuta Tamberg et al.

Summary: This study investigated the microanatomy and ultrastructure of the body wall and polypide in Bryozoans. The study found deviations in the composition and arrangement of the epithelial tissues in the body wall, including loss of cell layers and disruption of cell contacts. However, it remains unclear how Bryozoans maintain a balance of material exchange in these conditions.

Polypide anatomy of hornerid bryozoans (Stenolaemata: Cyclostomatida)

Yuta Tamberg et al.

Summary: Bryozoans are small colonial coelomates with a unique body wall composition, and the Cyclostomatida order presents a striking deviation in their ECM structure. Studying the polypide anatomy of different bryozoan families, such as Horneridae, can provide insights into the general cyclostomate body plan and the function of structures like the funiculus.

Hornera currieae n. sp. (Cyclostomatida: Horneridae): a new bathyal cyclostome bryozoan with reproductively induced skeletal plasticity

Peter B. Batson et al.

Summary: A new species of Hornerid, Hornera currieae n. sp., from bathyal depths in the New Zealand region is described. The species possesses unique skeletal and internal morphology, as well as physiological characteristics related to metabolism and reproduction. This study suggests that the skeletal ultrastructure may provide insights into colonial metabolite transport dynamics over time.

Three in one: evolution of viviparity, coenocytic placenta and polyembryony in cyclostome bryozoans

U. A. Nekliudova et al.

Summary: The study focuses on the unique structure of placental analogues found in two cyclostome species, revealing the development process of embryos embedded in the nutritive tissue. It suggests that the evolution of a specialized placenta providing massive nourishment may have supported the evolution of polyembryony in cyclostomes, leading to the development of enlarged incubating polymorphic gonozooids hosting multiple progeny.
