Normal architecture of the earthworm, E. eugeniae collected from the control station: Transverse section through the middle part of the earthworm reveal segmented body cavities, subphenogeal ganglion (K), subneural vessels (R), lining of the esophagus (S), intestine (V), longitudinal and circular muscles (ZI), metanephridium (W), and blood vessels (X). No lesion, no necrosis, no pigments, no malignancy, no inflammation or inclusion bodies seen in the control group. Mag × 400.
