Morphology and Histological Annual Changes of the Oviduct of Chaetophractus villosus (Mammalia, Xenarthra, Dasypodidae)

The morphological features of the oviduct in the armadillo Chaetophractus villosus (Desmarest, 1804) were studied. In the simple columnar epithelium, ciliated cells, secretory cells, and cells of the bottom of the folds are described. The most remarkable findings are the increase in number of ciliat...
