“…Most findings are consistent with the hypothesis that the digestive gland epithelium of terrestrial gastropods is composed of three cell types: digestive cells, calcium cells and excretory cells (Babua and SkowronskWendland, 1988;Mersal, 1990;Aioub et al, 2000;Dimitriadis, 2001;Chabicovsky et al 2004 andSnyman et al, 2005). The presence of fourth type, the thin cells, have been documented in H. aspersa, A. reticulatus and E. vermiculata (Sumner, 1965(Sumner, , 1969Walker, 1970;Beshr, 2000 andHamed et al, 2007). The digestive gland of gastropods is concerning with production of digestive enzymes, adsorption of nutrients, endocytosis of food substances, food storage and excretion (Dimitriadis, 2001).…”
