The histology of the accessory boring organ of the naticid clam drill Polinices lewisi (Gould) was investigated by means of electron microscopy and standard histological techniques.The organ consists of two distinct epithelial regions, one producing typical mucin histochemical reaction and a central region which secretes a proteinaceous substance. Overlying the central epithelium is a brush border consisting of numerous microvilli passing through a matrix of protein and chitin.
