Data considering the degeneration and regeneration of the midgut epithelium in the primitive wingless insects, such as Collembola, are rather poor. Also information, which treats the regenerative cells as the primordial cells, is poorly known.The midgut epithelium of Podura aquatica L. (Insecta, Collembola, Arthropleona) is formed by the epithelial and regenerative cells. The epithelial cells show distinct regionalisation in the organelles distribution. The ultrastructure of the basal, perinuclear and apical regions of the epithelial cells is described. As in insects without Malpighian tubules, structures which resemble urospherites occur in the cytoplasm of the epithelial cells. After degeneration of the entire midgut epithelium, a new epithelium is formed from regenerative cells. During the process of regeneration, the degenerated epithelium gradually is separated from the basal lamina by the newly formed one. Finally, the detached epithelium is moved into the midgut lumen. Regenerative cells play a role of primordial cells during epithelial regeneration.
