dc.description.abstract | The morphology of the retinal epithelium (RPE), choriocapillaris and Bruch's membrane (complexus basalis) has been investigated by light and electron microscopy in an elasmobranch, the southern fiddler ray or guitarfish (Trygonorhina fasciata) . The RPE consists of a single layer of cuboidal cells which display basal (scleral) infoldings as well as numerous apical (vitreal) finger-like processes which interdigitate with the photoreceptor outer segments. The lateral cell borders are relatively smooth and are joined in the mid-region by a series of tight junctions. Internally the RPE nucleus is large, vesicular and centrally located. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) is abundant while rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) is scarce. Polysomes are however widespread and mitochondria are plentiful. Two unusual organelles are also noted. One consists of a membrane bound array of tubules while the other is a membrane bound structure consisting of a granular matrix with again an interna1 tubular array. This species possesses a choroidally located tapetum lucidum in the superior fundus and over this tapetal area, melanosomes are absent from the RPE cells. In non-tapetal locations a few melanosomes are present that do not appear to undergo photomechanical movements. Bruch's membrane is a pentalaminate structure with an almost continuous central elastic layer (lamina densa). The choriocapillaris forms a single layer of capillaries with a thin but only minimally fenestrated endothelium facing Bruch's membrane. | es |
