Colonization history of the Japanese water shrew Chimarrogale platycephala, in the Japanese Islands

29-38

To evaluate the intraspecific evolutionary history and local differentiation of the Japanese water shrewChimarrogale platycephala (Temminck, 1842), we an a lyzed the mitochondrial cytochromeb (Cytb) sequence divergence for samples from 55 localities in the Japanese is lands of Honshu and Kyushu. According to phylogenetic trees based on theCytb data, there were fourCytb haplotype lineages, which showed rough affinities with geographic areas, namely, Eastern/Central Honshu, the Kinki District of Western Honshu, the Chugoku District of Western Honshu, and Kyushu. However, in the alpine areas of the boundary between the Kinki and Chugoku Districts, complicated distribution patterns of theCytb haplotypes were revealed. Considering the present data and geological history in the Quaternary, we hypothesized the following evolutionary scenario. First, differ entiation and division into four primary ancestral geographic colonies of the shrews occurred in hypothetical refugia in the mid — late Pleistocene. Subsequently, rapid expansion occurred and caused the complicated distribution patterns of theCytb haplotypes in the boundary areas owing to the complex topography during the late stage of the Quaternary.

Evaluation of semiserial sections of 14 normal hearts from human foetuses of gestational age 25–33 weeks showed that all of these hearts contained thin veins draining directly into the atria (maximum, 10 veins per heart). Of the 75 veins in these 14 hearts, 55 emptied into the right atrium and 20 into the left atrium. These veins were not accompanied by nerves, in contrast to tributaries of the great cardiac vein, and were negative for both smooth muscle actin (SMA) and CD34. However, the epithelium and venous wall of the anterior cardiac vein, the thickest of the direct draining veins, were strongly positive for SMA and CD34, respectively. In general, developing fibres in the vascular wall were positive for CD34, while the endothelium of the arteries and veins was strongly positive for the present DAKO antibody of SMA. The small cardiac vein, a thin but permanent tributary of the terminal portion of the great cardiac vein, was also positive for SMA and CD34. A few S100 protein-positive nerves were observed along both the anterior and small cardiac veins, but no nerves accompanied the direct drainage veins. These findings suggested that the latter did not develop from the early epicardiac vascular plexus but from a gulfing of the intratrabecular space or sinus of the atria. However, the immunoreactivity of the anterior cardiac vein suggests that it originated from the vascular plexus, similar to tributaries of the great cardiac vein. (Folia Morphol 2019; 78, 2: 283–289)
