Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

| Abstract |
The cystidean calyx of Antedon bifida (Pennant, 1777) consists of two superposed series of five inter-radially located plates called basals (lower plates) and orals (upper plates). A single radianal and five radial plates develop in early pentacrinoids. They are radially located between the orals and the basals and alternate with them. During pentacrinoid life, radials grow continuously while orals progressively regress. Basals fuse to the proximal forming the so-called rosette, and the radianal grows till the anal cone is formed and then regresses. The first primibrachials arise in 25 day pentacrinoids. Arms of detached juveniles usually have 13 secundibrachials, with IIBr13 each having a developing pinnule. No infrabasal develops between the series of basals and the upper columnal.During pentacrinoid life, the stalk progressively changes from homeomorphic to xenomorphic while most columnal articulations change from symmorphies to synarthries. Synarthrial fulcral ridges can rotate about 60° from one columnal articulation to another, allowing the stalk to be flexible in every direction. Formation of new columnals is continuous until the proximal appears (i.e. in 65 day pentacrinoids). The number of columnals in the fully-formed pentacrinoid stalk varies from 17 to 24 depending on the individual. Developing cirri are seen in 70 day pentacrinoids. Detached juveniles have two well-developed series of five cirri, which usually consist of ten cirral ossicles. |
