| Abstract | A comparative study of the silk-gland system was performed in three liphistiid and heptathelid species (Mesothelae). The morphology of the spinnerets and the silk fibers produced are studied by scanning electron microscopy. Histological and histochemical data on the glands and secretory products are provided. Three kinds of acinous or acinotubular glands are found in Liphistius, four kinds in Ryuthela and Heptathela, according to their histological as well as histochemical characteristics. A and B glands feeding the anterior lateral spinnerets consist of two different parts in Hepiathela and Ryuthela, and of three parts in Liphistius. C and D glands, feeding the posterior lateral spinnerets, are made up of a single category of secretory cells in Ryuthela and Heptathela ; C glands of Liphistius desultor and L. batuensis consist of two parts while three parts are found in L. malayanus. Each category of cells secretes a distinct product of a double composition exhibited by the secretory granules themselves inside the cells. The limited but particular anatomical and cytological differentiation of the silk-gland system in Mesothelae provides a new argument in favour of their separation from both Mygalomorphae and Araneomorphae.
