Sensilla on the antenna of the ground beetle, Carabus (Isiocarabus) fiduciarius saishutoicus Csiki (Coleoptera: Carabidae), were investigated using scanning electron microscopy. In both sexes, 5 types of sensilla trichodea, 7 types of sensilla basiconica, 1 type of sensilla ampullacea, and 2 types of sensilla campaniformia are distinguished. No sexual differences in the types and distribution of sensilla are found on the antenna, except a ventral, depressed, hairless region of the male. Various types of sensilla present on the mouthparts, head, pronotum, elytron, hindwing, legs, abdominal tergites and sternites, aedeagus, and ovipositor are also described. 相似文献

Antennal sensilla typology, number and distribution of the click beetle Limonius aeruginosus (Olivier) (Coleoptera: Elateridae) were studied using scanning electron microscopy. The serrate antennae of both sexes of L. aeruginosus consist of the scape, pedicel and of the flagellum which is composed of 9 flagellomeres. In both sexes, 5 types of sensilla basiconica, 1 type of sensilla trichodea, 1 type of sensilla chaetica, 1 type of sensilla campaniformia and Böhm sensilla were distinguished. No remarkable sexual differences in the types, numbers and distribution of sensilla were found on the antennae, except for the sensilla basiconica type II. The average number of sensilla basiconica type II on the antennae of the male beetle surpassed that on the antennae of the female beetle (3562 and 108 pegs, respectively). It is suggested that this type of sensilla on the male beetles antennae is responsible for the reception of the sex pheromone produced by the female beetle. 相似文献

The sensilla type, number and distribution in male and female adults of Carabus elysii Thomson, 1856 (Coleoptera: Carabidae) were studied using scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that there are seven categories and 12 types of sensilla in C. elysii adults: three types of S.Ch, three types of S.T, two types of S.B and one each of B.B, S.Co, S.Ca and S.Cam. There is no difference between male and female in the types of sensilla. Apart from the significant difference in the number and distribution of S.B.2, S.Co and S.Ca between male dorsal and ventral surfaces, there are no significant differences between male and female antennae. In general, the number of sensilla in females is larger than that in males. The results provide a basic reference for future ultrastructure, electrophysiological, and comparative behavioral studies of Carabus species. 相似文献

Giglio, A., Ferrero E.A., Perrotta, E., Talarico, F.F. and Zetto Brandmayr, T. 2010. Sensory structures involved in prey detection on the labial palp of the ant‐hunting beetle Siagona europaea Dejean 1826 (Coleoptera, Carabidae). —Acta Zoologica (Stockholm) 91 : 328–334 The ultrastructure and distribution of sensilla on the labial palps of a myrmecophagous carabid beetle, Siagona europaea, were investigated using scanning and transmission electron microscopy techniques. Five types of sensilla were identified: three types of sensilla basiconica on the apical sensory area and two types, one sensillum trichodeum and one coeloconicum, on the external palp surface. On morphological grounds, the s. basiconica type 1 were considered as olfactory, the type 2 as gustatory, the type 3 and the s. trichodeum as mechanoreceptive, and the s. coeloconicum as a thermo/hygroreceptor. Their function is discussed in relation to prey detection and habitat adaptations. 相似文献

The morphologies of male genitalia often appear harmful or aggressive, as if they may inflict physical damage upon females during copulation. Such male genitalia are often thought to function in intra- and intersexual interactions during mating. In the carabid genus Carabus, division Spinulati, males possess a spine (spinula) on the intromittent organ, of which function is unknown. To reveal the function of the spinula, we studied the mating behavior and genital coupling of a Spinulati species, Carabus (Limnocarabus) clathratus. The males positioned the spinula along the inner wall of the vaginal opening throughout copulation. This placement created a small dent and subsequently a melanized patch (wound) on the vaginal wall, but the spinula rarely penetrated the vaginal wall. The spinula did not reach the innermost part of the vagina where the spermatophore is deposited. These results suggest that the spinula is not used for inflicting damage on female genitalia or manipulating spermatophores of rival males. During spermatophore formation, the male partially withdrew the aedeagus, and only the aedeagal tip and endophallus remained within the female. By placing the spinula against the vaginal wall, the male could hold the endophallus within the vaginal chamber in the unstable copulatory posture. Thus, our observations suggest that the spinula primarily functions as an "anchor" to maintain the coupling of the male and female genitalia and thereby ensure insemination. 相似文献

We studied carabid beetle assemblage structure and species diversity in an intermediate successional stage (seral) forest established in areas affected by the 1888 eruption of Mt. Bandai and a climax forest that had not been affected by the eruption at the Urabandai area, Fukushima Prefecture, Japan. In total, 2,131 carabid beetles representing 31 species were collected using pitfall traps without bait. A comparison of carabid beetle assemblages between the two forest types revealed that the number of species observed was comparable, but their abundance was greater in the seral forest. The assemblage structure clearly differed between the two forest types. In the seral forest, forest generalists, such as Synuchus arcuaticollis and Pterostichus prolongatus, along with forest specialists including Carabus vanvolxemi and Pterostichus asymmetricus, were collected. In the climax forest, forest generalists, such as Synuchus cycloderus and Carabus albrechti tsukubanus, were more abundant than forest specialists. This suggests that the current seral forest in the Urabandai area possesses environmental variables that enable the coexistence of both forest specialist and generalist beetle species. A redundancy analysis showed that six species from the genera Synuchus and Pterostichus were associated with high canopy openness and high understory vegetation cover, whereas species recorded only in the climax forest were associated with deep litter. Therefore, it seems likely that carabid beetles in the Urabandai area were affected by these three environmental variables. 相似文献

Only very few cases have documented that an increase in connectivity after a period of fragmentation in ecological time has had an effect on the distribution, genetic structure and morphology of stenotopic species. In this study we present an example of clinal variability in a woodland ground beetle as a result of changes in the connectivity of a landscape during the last two centuries. The study area hosts both the nominate form Carabus violaceus s. str. and the subspecies Carabus violaceus purpurascens, which is ranked as a distinct species by some authors. We studied 12 Carabus violaceus populations from a 30 km transect of ancient and recent forests in north-western Germany. We analyzed three polymorphic enzyme loci, classified the elytron sculpture and measured the shape of the aedeagus tip of the specimens. Carabus violaceus showed secondary gradients both in allozyme markers and morphometric characters in our study area. A genetic differentiation of 16% between the populations is high but lies within the range of intraspecific variability in habitat specialists of the genus Carabus. Populations had no significant deficit of heterozygotes. We found many hybrid populations in terms of morphological properties. This study highlights the conservation value of ancient woodland and the consequences of landscape connectivity and defragmentation on the genetic setting of a ground beetle. Moreover, it shows that differences in the external shape of male genitalia do not prevent gene flow within the genus Carabus. Thus, the establishment of species status should not exclusively be based on this property. 相似文献

The typology, number and placement of antennal sensilla of the click beetle Melanotus villosus (Geoffroy) (Coleoptera: Elateridae) were studied using scanning electron microscopy. On both the males and females the antennae are made up of the scape, pedicel and nine flagellomeres. Two types of basiconic sensilla, three types of trichoid sensilla, one type of styloconic sensilla, one type of chetoid sensilla, dome-shaped sensilla, grooved pegs, and Böhm sensilla all appear on the antennae of the beetles of both sexes, with the exception of trichoid sensilla type II, whose large number (average of 1635 hairs per antenna) was found only in male beetles. Sensilla trichodea type II evidently respond to the sex pheromone produced by the female beetle. Unlike the other two click beetles, studied up till now, Agriotes obscurus and Limonius aeruginosus, the trichoid and basiconic sensilla of M. villosus, whose proven or assumed function is olfactory, are located predominantly on the flagellomeres ventral extensions. It is assumed that the placement of the olfactory sensilla, mainly on the ventral side of M. villosuss antennae, and their more or less even distribution on the flagellomeres, can be seen as morphological adaptation of this species of insect, whose specific behavioural reaction of olfactory searching is flying, both before and after contact with an odour plume. 相似文献

Sensilla on maxillary and labial palps in a helicophagous ground beetle larva (Coleoptera,Carabidae)
Anita Giglio Enrico Perrotta Federica Talarico Tullia Zetto Brandmayr Enrico A. Ferrero 《Acta zoologica》2013,94(3):324-330
Sensilla on the labial and maxillary palp of Carabus lefebvrei Dejean, 1826 larvae were investigated using scanning and transmission electron microscopy. Two identical sets of sensilla were present on the tips of both palp pairs, and four morphological types of sensilla were identified: sensilla basiconica types 1 and 2, sensilla coeloconica and sensilla digitiformia. Ultrastructure indicates that the sensilla basiconica type 1 and coeloconica have a chemical role as gustatory and olfactory receptors, respectively, while sensilla basiconica type 2 are mechanoreceptors and the sensilla digitiformia are probably thermo‐ and hygroreceptors. Their function is discussed in relation to specialized prey detection and habitat adaptations. 相似文献

Mating behavior and the processes of insemination and sperm transfer in the ground beetle Carabus insulicola were analyzed. C. insulicola has elaborate genitalia, in which the strongly sclerotized male copulatory piece is inserted into the female vaginal appendix in copula. During mating, I observed pre-copulatory struggles of males and females, as well as delays in ejaculation, suggesting the presence of intersexual conflicts. Insemination was achieved with a spermatophore, which strongly adhered to the openings of the spermatheca, common oviduct, and vaginal appendix. The spermatophore dissolved after copulation, and sperm were transferred into the spermatheca within three hours after copulation. Sperm bundles were contained within the testes and spermatophores, but free spermatozoa were found in the spermatheca. 相似文献

The antennal receptors of the adult male and female ladybird beetle, Semiadalia undecimnotata (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae), were examined by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. Twelve types of receptors were characterized and grouped into 5 morphological classes: Böhm, trichoid, coeloconic, basiconic, and chetiform sensilla. Sensory function was determined on the basis of sensillar ultrastructure and electrophysiological response. Olfactory sensilla are confined in both sexes to the 2 terminal antennal segments. In contrast, gustatory and mechanosensitive organs are present along the entire length of the antennae. Sexual dimorphism of antennal receptors is limited to the latter 2 functional classes. The principal characteristics of this dimorphism are the following: a) males possess 540 sensilla (all types), while females possess only 500; b) males exhibit 2 types of taste receptors not present in females; c) females exhibit one type of mechanoreceptor absent in males; d) the 3 sex-specific types of sensilla, which occupy the same position in males and females, are confined to the inner side of the antennae. The possible role of male-specific sensilla in intersexual communication is discussed. 相似文献

Forest-dwelling carabid beetles that have no flight ability were studied using mark-recapture methods in late-June to mid-October
2007. This study was done to determine the effects of narrow roads in Nopporo Forest Park, Hokkaido on carabid beetle movement
and habitat use. The investigation was conducted at four sites: one site was an abandoned grassy road with a width of 3.5 m,
two sites were gravel roads with widths of 3.5 and 4.5 m, and another site was an asphalt-paved road with a width of 4.5 m.
A total of 3,580 individuals from six species of carabid beetles were collected using dry pit-fall traps, and recapture rates
ranged from 6.1 to 36.2%. All examined roads acted as barriers against the movement of Leptocarabus arboreus ishikarinus. All roads, except the abandoned grassy road, acted as a barrier against Carabus granulatus
yezoensis movement. Forest–roadside verge comparisons demonstrated that some carabid beetles avoid even narrow roadside verges. Harmful
effects increase with increasing road width and both paved roads and narrow roads negatively affect the movement of carabid
beetles inhabiting the bordering forest. Therefore, forest specialist beetles are influenced by a barrier effect that starts
at the forest road verge, and this barrier effect may be exacerbated by vehicular traffic. Therefore, these barrier effects
on carabid beetles should be considered when planning and implementing road construction and maintenance in forests. 相似文献
