Abstract

The correlation between epidermal cells and cuticular reticulation was clearly shown by transmission and scanning electron microscopes with larval ostracods just before ecdysis. Comparison of the reticulation patterns of Recent and Pleistocene specimens revealed that the epidermal cell arrangement of the adult ostracods is both consistent in the Recent population and conservative in phylogeny. Ontogenetic changes of the reticulation pattern were studied with specimens cultivated separately. Some gene control over the mitosis of epidermal cells was assumed, based on the ontogenetic development of the reticulation pattern. The pattern of fossil specimens suggests that the control has been well maintained in ostracod phylogeny.
