. The Biological bulletin. Biology; Zoology; Biology; Marine Biology. (0. Figure 2. Optical micrographs illustrating both seasonal changes at the edge of the chondrophore and the effect of section thickness on the resolution of microgrowth patterns. All micrographs to same scale, (a) Late winter collection. Opaque region with irregular microgrowth increments present at the edge of the chondrophore. Thin section is about 120 microns in thickness, (b) Spring collection. Newly fanned spawning band (R) at the edge of the chondrophore. Opaque region in interior is previous winter: 180 micron thin s

Thin section is about 120 microns in thickness, (b) Spring collection. Newly fanned spawning band (R) at the edge of the chondrophore. Opaque region in interior is previous winter: 180 micron thin section, (c) Early summer collection. Translucent region characteristic of summer growth (S) is just beginning to form at edge. Note spawning band (R) in interior and opaque spring region (between R and S): 180 micron thin section, (d) Early fall collection. Opaque region forming at edge. Note translucent summer region in interior: 100 micron thin section, (e) Early winter collection. Opaque region with irregular microgrowth increments occurs at edge. Interior region includes previous fall: 120 micron thin section, (j) Same individual as in fc) but with chondrophore ground to about 130 micron thickness. In general, microgrowth increments become evident but the contrast between opaque and translucent regions is lost as the section is ground 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. ).
