Abstract (EN): The acrosome of spermatozoa from eleven species of Mollusca (Archaeogastropoda, Caenogastropoda and Bivalvia) was studied by transmission electron microscopy with the application of phosphotungstic acid-chromic acid staining on grid. Different patterns of staining were observed, which seem specific for each species and show to be important distinctive elements within and between related taxonomic divisions. The relevance of this cytochemical method for use in the study of phylogenetic and taxonomic relationships is discussed.
