“…In lichtmikroskopischen Untersuchungen wirken die Spermien verschiedener l~ber-familien innerhalb der Archaeogastropoda einander sehr /ihnlich, nur in der GrbBe unterscheidbar (Dan, 1956). Ein Vergleich der bisher untersuchten Patella-Arten mit den in dieser Untersuchung vorgestel]ten Trochaceen auf u]trastruktureller Basis zeigt indes, dab zumindest zwischen diesen Gruppen charakteristische Unterschiede bestehen.…”

Ultrastructural investigations on the morphology and genesis of sperms in Archaeogastropoda. The sperm cells of Patella coerulea (Patellacea), A,lonodonta turbinata, and Gibbula tumida (Trochacea) were investigated by means of transmission electron microscopy. They belong to the primitive type (sensu Franz4n) and have more features in common with primitive Bivalvia sperms than with Neritacea. Their head contains an apical acrosome and a roundish nucleus followed by 4 or 5 mitochondria and a centriolar apparatus which consists of two centrioles, one of which bears a flagellum. The sperm cells of Monodonta and Gibbula are very similar to each other and differ mainly in size; Patella exhibits more differences (very small acrosome, subacrosomal space, variable number of spherical mitochondria (origin of spermic dimorphism ?). The development of the sperm cells shows no peculiarities. EINLEITUNG

“…A factor associated with eggs (jelly coat) normally causes induction of the acrosome reaction in sea urchin spermatozoa (Popa, 1927;Dan, 1952Dan, , 1956. A protease similar to or identical with acrosin is released in response to these jelly coat factors and, based on protease inhibitor studies, Levine & Walsh (1979) have suggested that activation of this protease is required for successful completion of an acrosome reaction.…”
