Abstract
The aim of the present study was to define the morphology and the crystallographic and chemical composition of otoconia in different regions of the inner ear in Pleurodeles waltl (urodele amphibian). The inner ear of adults was microdissected and otoconia were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) and transmission electron microscopy. Two types of crystals were detected by SEM. Otoconia had different shapes depending on their location in the membranous labyrinth. One type had a cylindrical body with a triplanar smooth facet at each end, the other ones had either a prismatic shape with flat sides and end faces or a fusiform shape with rounded body and pointed end. The forms corresponded to those previously identified by other authors. These two types of otoconia had different X-ray diffraction patterns. The cylindrical otoconia were calcitic and located in the utricle, the other ones were aragonitic and located in the saccule, lagena and endolymphatic sac. An analysis by EDX indicated that both types of otoconia contained about 95% calcium with trace quantities of sodium, magnesium, phosphorus, sulfur, chlorine and potassium. Trace amounts of strontium was only found in the aragonitic otoconia.
