Morphological Changes in the Pregnant Uterus of the Smooth Hound Dogfish Mustelus schmitti Springer, 1939 (Gatuzo) (Condrichthyes, Triakidae): Microscopic Study and Phylogenetic Reproductive Implications
Elasmobranchs are important, not only as an economic resource but also for their phylogenetic position. Their slow growth and long reproductive cycles, together with the high fisheries pressure exerted, attempt to the knowledge of all biological parameters of species. In this work we analyze the his...
