A style, sometimes referred to as a crystalline style (though there are no other biological kinds), is a rod made of glycoprotein located in the midgut of most bivalves and some gastropods which aids in extracellular digestion. It consists of a protein matrix coated with digestive enzymes secreted by the style sac in the animal's stomach. When feeding, its projecting end is scraped against the stomach wall and abraded, thus releasing the enzymes. When subjected to starvation or desiccation, some bivalves have been known to re-ingest this organ.

  • Le stylet cristallin est une sorte de tige gélatineuse constituée de glycoprotéines située dans l'estomac de la plupart des bivalves et de certains gastéropodes. Il participe au mélange du contenu stomacal et à la sécrétion d'enzymes facilitant la digestion. Quand ils sont sujets à la famine ou à la dessiccation, les bivalves peuvent digérer leur propre stylet pour subvenir à leurs besoins (fr)
