Fig. 3

DIC and histology images of early stage Berghia stephanieae juveniles. These images show development of the cnidosac and beginning of nematocyst sequestration: A pre-feeding juvenile, B juvenile with cnidosacs and small cerata buds, and C juvenile with two rows of cerata. (A’C’) are close up images of the digestive gland (A’) or cnidosac (B’C’) in the whole animal DIC images. (A”C”) are histological sections of animals of the same stage (SIO-BIC M18641, M18643, and M18646, respectively) showing the digestive gland (A”) or cnidosac (B”C”) of those animals. Abbreviations: cp, cnidophage; cs, cnidosac; dg, digestive gland; dgb, digestive gland branch; nem, nematocyst(s)
