Two occurrences of Middle Ordovician opercula belonging to the gastropod Maclurites are described, one from the Taimyr Peninsula, Siberia, and one from the Kuskokwim Mountains, Alaska. The Taimyr opercula are the first to be described from Russia. Like other opercula of the genus, these thick specimens have a relatively massive prong on the interior to which the retractor muscle was attached. The Alaskan specimens preserve a secondary muscle attachment site. The described occurrences of Maclurites opercula are summarized.

During development, muscles must form and attach at highly stereotyped positions to allow for coordinated movements. In Drosophila, muscles grow towards and attach to specifically positioned cells within the epidermis. At the molecular level, very little is known about how muscles recognize these attachment sites. The derailed gene encodes a receptor tyrosine kinase family member that is essential for the pathfinding ability of expressing neurons. Here we show that the Drl RTK is also expressed by a small subset of developing embryonic muscles and neighboring epidermal cells during muscle attachment site selection. In drl mutants, these muscles often fail to attach at appropriate locations although their epidermal attachment cells appear unaffected. These results show that, similar to its role in neuronal pathway recognition, the Drl RTK participates in a mechanism required for muscle attachment site selection. The data suggest that both neurons and muscles use common mechanisms to recognize their paths or targets, and that Drl plays an analogous role in both developing systems.

AbstractThe flesh fly genus Wohlfahrtia Brauer & Bergenstamm contains at least six species of medical and veterinary importance. Traditional methods of species identification in specimens of Wohlfahrtia, however, are restricted mostly to adult forms. Muscle attachment site (MAS) patterns allow for species determination in larval forms. MAS patterns in third instar larvae of six common West Palearctic species of Wohlfahrtia have been analyzed for this study. As in previously investigated Calliphoridae and Sarcophagidae, MAS patterns were found to be species specific. A genus pattern was established to be used as base for comparison in further species determination. For the first time a tool is provided for species identification of such broad range in larvae of Wohlfahrtia species. Wohlfahrtia patterns are composed of a significantly higher number of MAS than patterns found in Sarcophaga. Specifics of the six species analyzed are explained in detail. The larvae of the well-known species W. magnifica, an obligate traumatic myiasis agent, had to be excluded from the analysis as a great number of spines on the outside obscure muscle attachment sites on the inside of the cuticle.

Muscle Attachment Sites

SummaryThe elaborate movement of the vertebrate body is supported by the precise connection of muscle, tendon and bone. Each of the >600 distinct skeletal muscles in the human body has unique attachment sites; however, the mechanism through which muscles are reproducibly attached to designated partner tendons during embryonic development is incompletely understood. We herein show that Screlaxis-positive tendon cells have an essential role in correct muscle attachment in mouse embryos. Specific ablation of Screlaxis-positive cells resulted in dislocation of muscle attachment sites and abnormal muscle bundle morphology. Step-by-step observation of myogenic cell lineage revealed that post-fusion myofibers, but not migrating myoblasts, require tendon cells for their morphology. Furthermore, muscles could change their attachment site, even after the formation of the insertion. Our study demonstrated an essential role of tendon cells in the reproducibility and plasticity of skeletal muscle patterning, in turn revealing a novel tissue-tissue interaction in musculoskeletal morphogenesis.Graphical abstract
