The aim of this study was to identify morphological and morphometric variations pulmonary fissures. A sample 50 adult formalin fixed Sri Lankan cadaveric lungs (24 left 26 right lungs) were observed with the help magnifying glass length measurements lung fissures taken using a measuring tape. Complete oblique fissure seen in 16 (66.67%) 11 (42.3%) lungs. Incomplete 8 (33.33%) 15 (57.69%) There ...

Surgery on the biliary tract has posed a challenge for the surgeon. The anatomic anomalies in this area demand careful identification of the relevant structures. Apart from anatomic variations, there are congenital anomalies of biliary tree that arise from normal morphological development; variations in the division of the extra hepatic biliary ducts are very frequent and understandable by the ...

The freshwater striped snakehead, Channa striata, known as “shol” in Bangladesh was introduced from Vietnam for commercial aquaculture that lacks morphological background. Therefore, the present study sought to differentiate various C. striata populations morphologically using one hundred eighty-six samples, consisting of nine native and two Vietnam-originated Bangladesh. Seventeen morphometric...

We describe and compare the external morphology of eleven clonal strains and one sexual lineage of the globally distributed Folsomia candida, known as "standard" test Collembola. Of the 18 morphological characters studied, we measured 14 to have significant between-strains genetic variations, 9 of these had high heritabilities (>78%). The quantified morphological polymorphism was used to analys...
