Note nucleus of outer layer of epithelium (OEP) ; scale bar is 10 /on. FIGURE 4. Secondary lamellae of early juvenile eel, showing single epithelial layer (EP) with nuclei over pillar cells (PG). Blood cells crowd blood spaces between pillar cells. Hematoxylin and eosin stained; scale bar is 10 FIGURE 5. Chloride cells (CC) at the base of lamellae near afferent lamellar artery (AA). Note the orominent nucleolus. visible with Feuleen Picro-Amido-Black stain: scale bar is 10 Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ); Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ).
