Comments:Gross morphology of male accessory glands described by Voss and Linzey (1981). Gastric anatomy, development, and physiology thoroughly investigated and considered with respect to systematics, function, and diet (Maddock and Perrin, 1981, 1983; Perrin and Curtis, 1980; Perrin and Maddock, 1983). Spermatozoal morphology described by Breed (1995d), who noted that sperm head ultrastructure generally resembles that of the cricetine Mesocricetus.
