Alternative Title
Morphology of the digestive system of the smooth butterfly ray Gymnura micrura (Batoidea: Gymnuridae).
Abstract
Con el objeto de conocer la organización morfológica del sistema digestivo de la raya mariposa Gymnura micrura, se colectaron 23 ejemplares con red de arrastre en lagunas costeras y el litoral del estado de Veracruz en el golfo de México. Las muestras se fijaron en formaldehído y se conservaron en alcohol etílico. En el laboratorio, se realizó el análisis anatómico de los componentes del tracto digestivo y de sus glándulas anexas. Así mismo se llevó a cabo la comparación con especies representativas de las familias Rhinobatidae, Rajidae, Urotrygonidae y Dasyatidae, permitiendo reconocer que la organización general del sistema digestivo de G. micrura corresponde al patrón morfológico general de Batoidea. Sin embargo, se identificaron como diferencias significativas entre esta especie y las restantes rayas el carácter esbelto de las mandíbulas, el reducido volumen de la musculatura mandibular y la formación de dos lóbulos hepáticos anteriores bien definidos y separados entre sí. Se resalta como carácter morfológico compartido con otros Myliobatoidei, el número de dos lóbulos hepáticos posteriores. Se determinó el dimorfismo sexual dentario de la especie, consistente en el mayor tamaño de la cúspide de cada diente en los machos.
In order to know the morphological organization of the digestive system of the smooth butterfly ray Gymnura micrura , specimens were collected with a trawl net in coastal lagoons and littoral of the Gulf of Mexico. Samples were fixed in formaldehyde and preserved in ethylic alcohol. In the laboratory, the anatomic analysis of the digestive tract components and its glands, together with the comparison with representative species of the Rhinobatidae, Rajidae, Urotrygonidae, and Dasyatidae families, allowed for the recognition that the general organization of the digestive system of G. micrura fits to the general morphological pattern of Batoidea. However, some significant differences were recognized between this species and the remaining rays, such as the slender nature of its jaws, the reduced volume of the mandible musculature, and the well- defined development of two anterior hepatic lobes separated from each other. It is outstanding the number of two posterior hepatic lobes as a shared morphological character with other Myliobatoidei. This species shows sexual dental dimorphism, consisting in a greater size of the d ental cuspid in each tooth of males.
