Hyperpolarizing responses in neuropil glial cells evoked by nerve root stimulation were studied in the central nervous system of the leech Hirudo medicinalis using intracellular recording and extracellular stimulation techniques. From a mean resting potential of ฯช60.5 ฯฎ 1.0, the glial membrane was h

Sensilla that line the upper edge of the lip in the leech Hirudo medicinalis and that contain chemoreceptors required for feeding were examined in the scanning and transmission electron microscopes. The sensilla include two size-classes of ciliated button-like mounds--one about 35 microns in diamete

We present a description of the last half of embryonic development in the European medicinal leech, Hirudo medicinalis, based entirely on externally visible morphological features, and establish reliably observable stages during that development. Embryogenesis, from the time fertilized eggs are depo
## Abstract The concentrations of inorganic and organic ions and osmolality in the blood of the medicinal leech, __Hirudo medicinalis__, were determined during normoxia and hypercapnic and hypocapnic hypoxia. In normoxic animals, the blood sodium concentration was 124.5 ยฑ 4.2 mmol/l and the total c
Classical studies of the nervous system of the leech revealed that there were specific types of very large glial cells associated with various parts of the neuron. Recent microelectrode studies demonstrated that there was a low resistance to the flow charge from any one of these large glial cells to
