Abstract
SUMMARYLight and transmission electron microscopy were used to study different stages of Perkinsus atlanticus (Apicomplexa) during induced zoosporulation, with fluid thioglycollate medium and seawater. Cytokinesis and nucleokinesis of different developmental stages were studied every 12 h during the incubation period of 72 h, at which time the zoospores became free. Uninucleated and flagellated zoospores present the apical complex formed by conoid, polar ring, micronemes, rhoptries and subpellicular microtubules observed at different sections. Ultrastructural details were compared with the other two species of the genus Perkinsus.
