title: The blood cells of the freshwater snail Planorbis corneus (Gastropoda, Pulmonata).
abstract: A study of the morphology and behaviour (cell adherence and spreading, in vitro phagocytosis and rosette formation) of blood cells of Planorbis corneus, revealed the presence of two cell types: the spreading haemocyte and the round haemocyte. Results obtained with vinblastine confirmed that these cell forms are distinct cell types and not different maturational stages of a single cell type.
