Renal anatomy of the manatee, Trichechus manatus, Linnaeus.
Amer. Jour. Anat. 184(4): 269-286. 3 tabs. 43 figs. Apr. 1989.
–Detailed description of the Florida manatee's kidney, lavishly illustrated with line drawings and photographs, but with little discussion of function. Compares the kidney of T. manatus with those of other sirs. and other mammals, and concludes that its structure suggests "a mammal capable of forming a copious but only moderately hypertonic urine."
