The organization of the nervous system of Procerodes littoralis (Tricladida, Maricola, Procerodidae) was studied by immunocytochemistry, using antibodies to authentic flatworm neuropeptide F (NPF) (Moniezia expansa). Compared to earlier investigations of the neuroanatomy of tricladid flatworms, the pattern of NPF immunoreactivity in Procerodes littoralis reveals differences in the following respects: 1. Shape and structure of the brain. 2. Number and composition of longitudinal nerve cords. 3. Shape of branches of, and transverse connections between, main ventral nerve cords. 4. Composition of the pharyngeal nervous system. The rich innervation by NPF immunoreactive (IR) fibres and cells of the subepithelial muscle layer, the pharynx musculature and the musculature of the male copulatory apparatus indicates a neurotransmitter or neuromodulatory influence on muscular activity.
利用针对真绦虫神经肽F（NPF）（扩展莫尼茨绦虫）的抗体，通过免疫细胞化学方法研究了滨海前殖吸虫（三肠目、海生类、前殖科）的神经系统组织。与早期对三肠目绦虫神经解剖学的研究相比，滨海前殖吸虫中NPF免疫反应性模式在以下方面存在差异：1. 脑的形状和结构。2. 纵神经索的数量和组成。3. 主要腹神经索分支的形状以及它们之间的横向连接。4. 咽神经系统的组成。NPF免疫反应性（IR）纤维和细胞对上皮下肌肉层、咽肌组织和雄性交配器官肌肉组织的丰富神经支配表明，其对肌肉活动具有神经递质或神经调节作用。
