| a stereological analysis of kidney structure of honeyeater birds (meliphagidae) inhabiting either arid or wet environments. | stereology was used to quantify components within the kidney of honeyeater birds. arid zone and wet zone inhabiting 'matched' body mass pairs of birds were examined. the kidney structure of the arid zone white-fronted honeyeater, phylidonyris albifrons (16.9 g), was compared with that of the wet zone new holland honeyeater, phylidonyris novaehollandiae (21.9 g), and that of the arid zone spiny-cheeked honeyeater, acanthogenys rufogularis (42.5 g), with that of the wet zone little wattlebird, ant ... | 1992 | 1506282 |
| a qualitative analysis of the kidney structure of meliphagid honeyeaters from wet and arid environments. | the qualitative ultrastructural renal anatomy was examined in 4 species of honeyeater (parvorder corvi) inhabiting 2 distinctly different environments. the kidneys of the wet zone new holland honeyeater phylidonyris novaehollandiae and little wattlebird anthochaera lunulata were compared with those of the arid zone white-fronted honeyeater phylidonyris albifrons and spiny-cheeked honeyeater acanthogenys rufogularis. the size and structure of glomeruli were similar between species. in all species ... | 1993 | 8376198 |
