The coxal glands of M. murismusculi consist of the proximal tubular portion (tubulus), the distal glandular sac and the terminal excretory duct. The tubulus comprises looped proximal and distal tubes that run in close association with each ...
Occurrence of midgut perimicrovillar membranes in paraneopteran insect orders with comments on their function and evolutionary significance [0.03%]
中肠周微绒毛膜在半翅类昆虫各目的分布及其功能和进化意义的探讨
Carlos P Silva,José R Silva,Fábio F Vasconcelos et al.
Carlos P Silva et al.
Hemipterans are characterized by the absence of the peritrophic membrane, an anatomical structure that envelopes the food bolus in the majority of insects. However, the microvillar membranes of many hemipteran midgut cells are not in direct...
Ontogeny of identified cells from the median domain in the embryonic brain of the grasshopper Schistocerca gregaria [0.03%]
草地螽斯Schistocerca gregaria胚胎脑中中央域识别神经元的分化发育历程研究

In this paper, we propose an ontogeny for previously identified cells from the median domain in the midline of the embryonic brain of the grasshopper Schistocerca gregaria. The so-called lateral cells (LCs) are characteristically located la...
Loss of escape responses and giant neurons in the tailflipping circuits of slipper lobsters, Ibacus spp. (Decapoda, Palinura, Scyllaridae) [0.03%]
滑舌虾(十足目尾足亚目滑虾科)逃避反应丧失和巨大神经元的尾巴翻动电路失去

In many decapod crustaceans, escape tailflips are triggered by lateral giant (LG) and medial giant (MG) interneurons, which connect to motor giant (MoG) abdominal flexor neurons. Several decapods have lost some or all of these giant neurons...
How do plant waxes cause flies to slide? Experimental tests of wax-based trapping mechanisms in three pitfall carnivorous plants [0.03%]
植物蜡质如何使昆虫滑落?三种陷坑食虫植物的蜡质捕虫机制实验测试

L Gaume et al.
The waxy surfaces of three carnivorous plants, Nepenthes ventrata (Nepenthaceae), Brocchinia reducta and Catopsis berteroniana (Bromeliaceae), were compared using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Their effects on attachment and locomotio...
The effects of plant epicuticular waxy blooms on attachment and effectiveness of predatory insects [0.03%]
植物体表蜡粉对捕食性昆虫附着及效能的影响

Phytophagous insects and their natural enemies frequently must cling to plants in order to forage. Typically, this involves attachment to the layer of lipophilic materials, or 'epicuticular waxes' (EW) that covers all primary plant surfaces...
Structure and mechanics of the tarsal chain in the hornet, Vespa crabro (Hymenoptera: Vespidae): implications on the attachment mechanism [0.03%]
黄翅大黄蜂(Hymenoptera:Vespidae)中虎足连杆的结构与力学:对附着机制的意义
Leonid Frantsevich,Stanislav Gorb
Leonid Frantsevich
Two combined mechanisms on the hornet tarsus are adapted to attachment to the substrate: a friction-based (claws and spines) and an adhesion-based one (arolium). There are two ranges of substrate roughness optimal for attachment, either ver...
Locomotion and adhesion: dynamic control of adhesive surface contact in ants [0.03%]
蚂蚁的运动和附着:蚂蚁粘附表面接触的动态控制
Walter Federle,Thomas Endlein
Walter Federle
Tarsal adhesive pads of insects are highly dynamic organs that play an important role in locomotion. Many insects combine fast running performance with strong resistance to detachment forces. This capacity requires an effective control of a...

This contribution is the first comparative SEM study of tarsal and pretarsal structures of 18 dermapteran species, including epizoic Hemimeridae, rare Apachyidae, as well as basal Pygidicranidae. Our data reject the apparent uniformity of t...

Legs and other body parts of males, females and first instar larvae of almost all recognised families of Strepsiptera (Insecta) were examined. Descriptions of tibial, tarsal and pretarsal adhesive structures for each family are presented. T...
