Abstract
Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) was demonstrated histochemically in the nervous system of the snail, Biomphalaria glabrata.AChE activity is localized in two distinct regions in each buccal ganglion.AChE activity is high in the neuropiles of cerebral and pedal ganglia; in a few instances, AChE activity is associated with axons in the neuropiles. In the pleural, visceral and parietal ganglia, AChE activity seems to be highly localized structurally.AChE activity of each ganglion is in communication with one another via connectives and commissures.AChE activity is distributed throughout the motor nerves of the snail foot, and is not exclusively associated with membranes, but can be observed also in the entire cross sections of the axons.
