Does the kinorhynch have a hydrophobic body surface? Measurement of the wettability of a meiobenthic metazoan
The body surface of aquatic invertebrates is generally thought to be hydrophilic to prevent the attachment of air bubbles. In contrast, some interstitial invertebrates, such as kinorhynchs and some crustaceans, have a hydrophobic body surface: they are often trapped at the water surface when the sed...
