- _O. dioica_ has 83 homeobox genes, according to [[Edvardsen and coll., 2005|biblio/15649342]].

- Two subchordal cells are found in the haemocel of the tail. Utrastructure analysis
suggests the alternance of highly exocytic and highly endocytic states
([[Fredriksson and Olsson, 1991|biblio/10.1111_j.1463-6395.1991.tb01203.x]]).
