title: [Localization of the haemopoietic tissue of polychaete annelids. II. Site of chlorocruorin synthesis (author's transl)].
abstract: The perivasal tissue of some blood vessels (antero-lateral vessels of Pomatoceros triqueter, ventral and lateral vessels of Sabella pavonina) shows a remarkable quantity of iron and pseudo-peroxidase activity. At the EM level, this tissue is characterized by numerous dense DAB positive inclusions and well developed granular endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi. Its function in chlorocruorin synthesis is discussed.
