Late POII/early juvenile (ADI, 14 mm carapace length): the neurogenic niche and proliferation zones stained for gluthamine synthetase. (A, D) Displacement of the medial proliferation zone (MPZ; former cap) towards cluster 9 in three different specimens. (B) A higher magnification of the boxed area in (A). (C) In this juvenile specimen, the MPZ (former cap) has already relocated from the niche and reached cluster 9. This arrangement is now very similar to that in adults [14, 28] (Figure 1). Abbreviations: CL 10, cluster 10; LPZ, lateral proliferative zone; MPZ, medial proliferation zone. Scale bar: 100 μm (A, C, D), 50 μm (B).
