Anatomy Accessory Glands Of Male Reproductive Of Javan Pangolin (Manis javanica)
This study aimed to learn the morphology accessory glands of male reproductive of pangolin by macroanatomy. Male reproductive organs of a pangolin were used in this study. Morphometric observations included measurements of length, diameter/width of the accesoriae gland were analyzed descriptively. Results of microscopic observation showed that the vesicularis glands had a pair laid at the base of the ampulla dexter and sinister that led to the urethra in the form of an enlarged conical with the width at the caudal and protruding toward ventrad, with the average length and thickness is 1.07 cm and 0.41 cm. There was prostata when the conical structure met both, observed enlargement of the base of the urethra were also prominent in the direction ventrad. The length and thickness of the prostata pangolin was 1.17 cm and 0.54 cm. In macroanatomy gland bulbourethralis not visible because it was covered by muscles and glands in the radix penis is attached to the anales gland. Accessory gland of the male reproductive pangolin consists vesikularis glands, prostate and bulbourethralis glands (Cowper's) play an important role in the reproduction process that is vesicularis and prostate gland as a producer of seminal plasma, whereas bulbourethralis glands act as a producer of seminal plasma as well as rinse of urethra channel.
