Résumé

Etude microscopique de la structure du tube digestif de 7 espèces de Digenea (Trematoda). Dans toutes les espèces, les cellules du gastroderme possèdent des microvillosités nombreuses qui donnent une réaction positive avec PAS et la phosphatase acide. Ces structures augmentent considérablement la surface cellulaire de l'intestin simple. Leur rôle dans la digestion et l'absorption est discutée.
