FIGURE 1. Animal and egg morphology by LM of paragenophores and hologenophores from St. Ulrich (Germany). A–C: Macrobiotus hufelandi (Faure-Berlese fluid, phase contrast); D–F: Macrobiotus sandrae. A: Macroplacoids; B: egg shell (paragenophore); C: egg shell (hologenophore, HQ876584); D: placoids (Faure-Berlese fluid, phase contrast); E: egg shell reticulation in a hologenophore (HQ876582, Faure-Berlese fluid, phase contrast); F: egg shell distal dishes in the same hologenophore (Faure-Berlese, DIC). Scale = 10 µm.
