Excessive sedimentation is a major threat to coral reefs. It can damage or kill reef-building corals and can prevent the successful settlement of their planktonic larvae. The surgeonfish Ctenochaetus striatus feeds on rocky surfaces by sweeping loose material into its mouth with its flexible, broom-like teeth. In addition, it grasps and removes hard substrates with the aid of its special palate structure. It then transports sediment matter off the reef by defecating the ingested material outside the rocky zone of the reef. We analyzed 150 feces samples of six individuals, differentiating between (1) ingested by sweeping and (2) ingested by scraping, and compared their content with inorganic land-derived and marine sediments trapped at the feeding area. Projections based on fish densities, defecation rates, and quantities as well as composition of sediments collected by traps on the same reef site suggest that C. striatus removes at least 18% of the inorganic sediment sinking onto the reef crest. The eroded share in the exported matter is about 13%. This finding points to a hitherto not verified role of C. striatus as a reef sweeper and reef scraper, whereby the first function is by far dominating.  相似文献

To assess how tooth microstructure and composition might facilitate the pharyngeal mill mechanism of halfbeaks, apatite structure and iron content were determined by scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X‐ray analysis for Hyporhamphus regularis ardelio, Arrhamphus sclerolepis krefftii, and Hemiramphus robustus. Iron was present in developing teeth and was concentrated along the shearing edge of spatulate incisiform teeth, which dominate the occlusive wear zone in all three species. A model based on tooth structure and wear rate is proposed to explain how halfbeaks maintain a fully functional occlusion zone throughout growth and consequent tooth addition and replacement. Replacement teeth erupt and wear rapidly so that a constant occlusion plane is always present. Iron within the tooth tissue reduces the wear rate of the cutting edge while simultaneously maintaining its sharpness and efficiency. J. Morphol. 2009. © 2008 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.  相似文献

Two new species of Leporinus are described from tributaries of the Rio Amazonas in Brazil. One species is known from the Jari and Tapajós River basins, and is identified on the basis of a gas bladder reduced in size, a dark midlateral stripe on the body, dark transverse bars on the dorsum, a subinferior mouth, three teeth on the premaxilla, four teeth on the dentary and 16 scale rows around the caudal peduncle. The second new species is known from the Tocantins, Xingu and Tapajós River basins, and is identified on the basis of three dark longitudinal stripes on the body, a subinferior mouth, three teeth on the premaxilla, four teeth on the dentary and 12 scale rows around the caudal peduncle. In addition, Leporinus striatus is redescribed based on type and additional specimens from the Río de La Plata, Amazonas, Orinoco, Atrato, Magdalena and Sinu River basins. Leporinus striatus is identified on the basis of four dark longitudinal stripes on the body, a subterminal mouth, three teeth on the premaxilla, four teeth on the dentary and 16 scale rows around the caudal peduncle.  相似文献

Aim This study aims to elucidate the phylogeography of the murid rodent Lemniscomys striatus and to evaluate the relative roles of ecological change, habitat patchiness, rivers and geological barriers in structuring patterns of diversity. Location Sub‐Saharan Africa. Methods The extent of phylogeographic patterns and molecular genetic diversity (cytochrome b gene) were addressed in a survey of 128 individuals of L. striatus from 42 localities. Using maximum parsimony, maximum likelihood, Bayesian, network and genetic structure analyses, we inferred intraspecific relationships and tested hypotheses for historical patterns of gene flow within L. striatus. Results Our results identified four major geographical clades within L. striatus: a West African clade, a Benin‐Nigeria clade, a Central African clade, and an East African clade. Several subclades were identified within these four major clades. Restricted gene flow with isolation by distance was recorded, which is congruent with the low dispersal ability of such a small murid rodent. No clear signal of population expansion was detected within clades or subclades. Main conclusions The western rift system and the Volta and Niger rivers may have acted as long‐term extrinsic barriers to gene flow, resulting in the emergence of the four main clades of L. striatus. The observed pattern of mitochondrial variation observed within each clade probably results from late Pleistocene climatic and vegetation changes: during adverse conditions (forest expansion), L. striatus may have survived only in refugia, and then experienced range expansion under favourable conditions (savanna expansion).  相似文献

Synopsis The mechanisms of food procurement in the surgeonfishesCtenochaetus striatus andAcanthurus nigrofuscus from the Great Barrier Reef were determined by functional analyses of the jaws and associated structural elements (based on myological and osteological examinations and X-ray photographs) and by video analyses of actions of the mouth and body during feeding.Acanthurus nigrofuscus has relatively robust jaw bones. The movement of the elements during mouth opening is limited with a mean maximum gape angle of 112.8°. Each bite is relatively fast and is characterized by a quick nip at algal filaments, usually followed by a sidewads flick of the head. The jaws bear several broad multidenticulate teeth. It appears that these teeth engage turf algal strands which are either sheared during mouth closure or torn off as the head flicks sideways. InC. striatus, the jaw bones are considerably lighter than those ofA. nigrofuscus. There is much greater movement of the elements during mouth opening, resulting in a mean maximum gape angle of 177.6°. Each bite is slower than inA. nigrofuscus and is characterized by a wide gape as the mouth is applied to the substratum followed by a quick, upward flick of the lower jaw, with no sideways flick of the head. The jaws bear numerous elongate flexible teeth, with expanded incurved denticulate tips; those on the dentary often possessing a pointed blade-like process. It appears that these teeth brush particulate and epiphytic material from the surface of the turf algal strands and other substrata. These observations demonstrate howA. nigrofuscus andC. striatus are able to remove microalgae and detritus, respectively, from the same substratum. The results also demonstrate how relatively small differences in morphology can have a profound influence on the feeding abilities and trophic ecology of fishes.  相似文献

Trophodynamics of blooms of the toxic marine cyanobacterium Lyngbya majuscula were investigated to determine dietary specificity in two putative grazers: the opisthobranch molluscs, Stylocheilus striatus and Bursatella leachii. S. striatus is associated with L. majuscula blooms and is known to sequester L. majuscula metabolites. The dietary specificity and toxicodynamics of B. leachii in relation to L. majuscula is less well documented. In this study we found diet history had no significant effect upon dietary selectivity of S. striatus when offered a range of plant species. However, L. majuscula chemotype may alter S. striatus' selectivity for this cyanobacterium. Daily biomass increases between small and large size groups of both species were recorded in no-choice consumption trials using L. majuscula. Both S. striatus and B. leachii preferentially consumed L. majuscula containing lyngbyatoxin-a. Increase in mass over a 10-day period in B. leachii (915%) was significantly greater than S. striatus (150%), yet S. striatus consumed greater quantities of L. majuscula (g day− 1) and thus had a lower conversion efficiency (0.038) than B. leachii (0.081) based on sea hare weight per gram of L. majuscula consumed day− 1. Our findings suggest that growth rates and conversion efficiencies may be influenced by sea hare maximum growth potential, acquisition of secondary metabolites or diet type.  相似文献

A new ichnotaxon is recognized in the Hidden Lake Formation, Upper Cretaceous of James Ross Island, Antarctica. Fuersichnus striatus consists of horizontal to subhorizontal, isolated or loosely clustered, U‐shaped, curved to banana‐like burrows, characterized by distinctive striations parallel to the trace axis. It is interpreted as a dwelling structure probably produced by crustaceans or polychaetes. This recording of Fuersichnus extends its stratigraphic range from the Triassic‐Jurassic to the Cretaceous and its environmental setting from nonmarine to marine environments. F. striatus typified consolidated, but unlithified substrates. Accordingly, it must be considered a member of the Glossifungites ichnofacies.  相似文献

The karyorelictid ciliate Loxodes striatus has pigment granules which are similar in size, structure and distribution to the pigmentocysts in the heterotrich ciliates, Blepharisma japonicum and Stentor coeruleus, which are known to be extrusomes for chemical defence against predators. We examined whether the pigment granules of L. striatus are also defensive organelles. We showed that: (1) pigment granules of L. striatus are extrusive organelles; (2) bleached cells of L. striatus produced by inducing a massive discharge of pigment granules are more vulnerable than normally pigmented cells to the raptorial ciliate Dileptus margaritifer and the turbellarian Stenostomum sphagnetorum, while they are indistinguishable from intact cells in external morphology and the capacity to grow; (3) the cell-free fluid (CFF) which contains the pigment discharged from pigment granules of L. striatus induced in D. margaritifer behavioural and pathological reactions which are essentially the same as those observed in the interaction with L. striatus, and this effect of the CFF disappeared when the pigment was bleached by light. We conclude that pigment granules of L. striatus are extrusomes for chemical defence against predators, and that the defence is based on the toxic pigment contained in these organelles.  相似文献

Abstract The structure, morphology and organisation of the cusps of the major lateral radula teeth of the chiton Plaxiphora albida have been examined using light, transmission and scanning electron microscopy, together with energy dispersive X-ray analysis and Mössbauer spectroscopy. In this chiton species, both the anterior and posterior surfaces of the major lateral teeth are composed of magnetite, which is indicated to be non-stoichiometric and associated with some maghemite, together with small amounts of phosphorus and silicon. This outer layer surrounds an inner core region of the tooth, which only reaches the surface through a small window zone on the anterior surface and which contains large amounts of iron and phosphorus presumably in the form of iron(III) phosphate. The organic matrix, on which the teeth are constructed, consists of a zone of densely packed fine fibres at the surface of the tooth, underlain by larger fibres which become sparser deeper into the cusp. The core region is characterized by the presence of densely packed short fibres. In contrast to the situation found in most other species of chiton, large fibres of the organic matrix extend throughout the region of magnetite mineralization, leading to the suggestion that the matrix exerts more control over the mineralization of magnetite than has previously been thought.  相似文献

Blooms of the toxic cyanobacteria Lyngbya spp. have been increasing in frequency and severity in southeast Florida in recent years. Lyngbya produces many active secondary metabolites which often act as feeding deterrents to generalist herbivores, possibly increasing the longevity of these nuisance blooms. Whilst diverse arrays of small invertebrate consumers are often found in association with Lyngbya, little is known of their grazing selectivity among species of Lyngbya. This study examines the feeding preference of grazers for four local Lyngbya species (Lyngbya majuscula, Lyngbya confervoides, Lyngbya polychroa and Lyngbya spp.). Stylocheilus striatus and Haminoea antillarum showed no dietary selectivity between L. polychroa, L. majuscula and Lyngbya spp. in multiple choice feeding assays, whereas Bulla striata showed a distinct preference for L. polychroa (P < 0.001). To determine whether preference might be related to species-specific secondary metabolites, L. majuscula, L. confervoides and L. polychroa non-polar and polar extracts were incorporated into artificial diets and offered to a range of mesograzers. No significant difference was noted in feeding stimulation or deterrence amongst extracts and the controls for any of the grazers. When fed a monospecific diet of L. polychroa, S. striatus consumed more (P < 0.001) and attained a higher daily biomass (P = 0.004) than S. striatus fed L. confervoides. As L. polychroa and L. confervoides often co-exist on local coral reefs and yield dense numbers of S. striatus, host switching to a more palatable species of Lyngbya may have important implications regarding top-down control of local blooms leading to proliferation of one species and decimation of another. S. striatus fed a diet of L. polychroa consumed more (P = 0.003), had a greater increase in body mass (P = 0.020) and higher conversion efficiency (P = 0.005) than those fed L. confervoides regardless of host origin. Possible explanations for host switching between species of Lyngbya related to morphology, toxicity and nutrient requirements for growth are discussed.  相似文献

Sicyopterus japonicus (Teleostei, Gobiidae), a hill‐stream herbivorous gobiid fish, possesses an unusual oral dentition among teleost fishes on account of its feeding habitat. By using scanning electron microscopy, light microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy, including vital staining with tetracycline, we examined the development of the attachment tissues of the upper jaw teeth in this fish. The functional teeth of S. japonicus had an asymmetrical dentine shaft. The dentine shaft attached to the underlying uniquely shaped pedicel by means of two different attachment mechanisms. At the lingual base, collagen fiber bundles connected the dentine shaft with the pedicel (hinged attachment), whereas the labial base articulated with an oval‐shaped projection of the pedicel (articulate attachment). The pedicel bases were firmly ankylosed to the crest of the thin flange of porous spongy bone on the premaxillary bone, which afforded a flange‐groove system on the labial surface of the premaxillary bone. Developmentally, the pedicel and thin flange of spongy bone were completely different mineralized attachment tissues. The pedicel had a dual origin, i.e., the dental papilla cells, which differentiated into odontoblasts that constructed the internal surface of the pedicel, and the mesenchymal cells, which differentiated into osteoblasts that formed the outer face of the pedicel. A thin flange of spongy bone was deposited on the superficial resorbed labial side of the premaxillary bone proper, and later rapid bone remodeling proceeded toward the pedicel base. These unique features of pedicellate tooth attachment for the upper jaw teeth in the adult S. japonicus are highly modified teeth for enhancing the ability of individual functional teeth to move closely over irregularities in the rock surfaces during the scraping of algae.

Seasonal fluctuations in numbers of some mesosaprobic ciliated Protozoa were followed from May 1969 to December 1970 in a eutrophic pond in north-west England. The most common species were Loxodes magnus and Loxodcs striatus; some counts of Frontonia leucas, Spirostomum teres, Stentor coeruleus and Paramecium caudatum were also made. From about October to May, when the pond was mixed and the bottom water was well oxygenated, dense benthic populations of these ciliates were found (maxima 221 L. magnus and 293 L. striatus in 0·1 ml of sediment). They were absent from the plankton. In summer, stratification occurred, conditions in the hypolimnion became saprobic (i.e. low oxygen and high levels of potentially toxic substances such as sulphide, ammonia, and carbon dioxide), and very few benthic ciliates were present. Some planktonic Loxodes (up to 34 L. magnus and 137 L. striatus/ml) were, however, found in the hypolimnion. Possibly conditions in the water column were less severe than in the sediment, or perhaps the planktonic ciliates migrated vertically, from time to time, to an oxygen supply at the boundary with the epilimnion. Experimental exposure of the Loxodes species (also S. teres) to saprobic conditions in closed bottles caused the death of most ciliates within 50–150 h of closing the bottles. Deoxygenation of Loxodes was also carried out in a stream of argon, when there was no build-up of the potential toxins associated with anoxia. Almost all Loxodes were lost between 20 and 70 h, hence, oxygen deficiency alone is probably sufficient to explain the low populations in the summer benthos.  相似文献

The feeding and defecation behaviour of the surgeonfish Ctenochaetus striatus was investigated at Ras Mohammed National Park (South Sinai, Red Sea). The fish feed on coral rock mainly by sweeping loose sediment with their flexible broom like teeth into their mouths. Feeding occurred exclusively on coral rock, but defecation took place only outside the grazing area above sand in small, precisely defined areas.  相似文献

The distribution of Loxodes magnus and L. striatus (Karyorelictida) was investigated in two eutrophic waters (Esthwaite Water and Priest Pot, English Lake District). In the benthos, these species were most abundant at the sediment surface, at deeper sites, and when the bottom water was oxygenated. In the plankton, in Priest Pot, they were found only in the oxygen deficient summer hypolimnion. Experimental studies suggested that L. magnus and L. striatus required access to oxygen. Loxodes was apparently excluded from the oxygenated Priest Pot epilimnion by several adverse factors, one of which was bright light. It was concluded that the ecology of L. magnus and L. striatus resembles, in many ways, that of the advanced ciliates which were found associated with Loxodes.  相似文献

The radular morphology of the patellid species Testudinalia testudinalis (O. F. Müller, 1776) from the White Sea was studied using light, electron, and confocal microscopy. The radula is of the docoglossan type with four teeth per row and consisting of six zones. We characterize teeth formation in T. testidinalis as follows: one tooth is formed by numerous and extremely narrow odontoblasts through apocrine secretion; this initially formed tooth consists of numerous vesicles; the synthetic apparatus of the odontoblasts is localized in the apical and central parts of the cells throughout the cytoplasm and is penetrated by microtubules which are involved in the transport of the synthesized products to the apical part of the odontoblast; the newly formed teeth consist of unpolymerized chitin. Mitotic activity is located in the lateral parts of the formation zone. The first four rows contain an irregular arrangement of teeth, but the radular teeth are regularly arranged after the fifth row. The irregularly arranged teeth early on could be a consequence of the asynchronous formation of teeth and the distance between the odontoblasts and the membranoblasts. The morphological data obtained significantly expands our knowledge of the morphological diversity of the radula formation in Gastropoda.  相似文献

Elasmobranchs exhibit two distinct arrangements of mineralized tissues in the teeth that are known as orthodont and osteodont histotypes. Traditionally, it has been said that orthodont teeth maintain a pulp cavity throughout tooth development whereas osteodont teeth are filled with osteodentine and lack a pulp cavity when fully developed. We used light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and high‐resolution micro‐computed tomography to compare the structure and development of elasmobranch teeth representing the two histotypes. As an example of the orthodont histotype, we studied teeth of the blue shark, Prionace glauca (Carcharhiniformes: Carcharhinidae). For the osteodont histotype, we studied teeth of the great white shark, Carcharodon carcharias (Lamniformes: Lamnidae). We document similarities and differences in tooth development and the microstructure of tissues in these two species and review the history of definitions and interpretations of elasmobranch tooth histotypes. We discuss a possible correlation between tooth histotype and tooth replacement and review the history of histotype differentiation in sharks. We find that contrary to a long held misconception, there is no orthodentine in the osteodont teeth of C. carcharias. J. Morphol. 276:797–817, 2015. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.  相似文献

Summary 1. In the fishOphiocephalus striatus Bloch feeding rate increased 2 to 3 times, when feeding was resumed after less than 20 days fasting; fasting periods of more than 20 days result in resumption-feeding rates that were only slightly higher (0.5 to 0.8 times) than the controls.2. Although feeding rates were very high after resumption of feeding following different periods of starvation (10 to 40 days) absorption efficiency remained practically identical to that of controls.3. Following a period of less than 20 days fasting resumption of feeding led conversion efficiencies almost twice as high as the normal values, showing over-compensation. Fish fed after a period of more than 20 days fasting showed a decrease in conversion efficiency resulting in partial compensatory growth.4. Responses to resumption of feeding following different periods of starvation may be of two types: (a) Rates of metabolism and feeding are restored to pre-starvation rates and conversion efficiency increases due to corresponding increase in feeding rates, e. g. O.striatus, and (b) rates of metabolism and feeding continue to remain low and the increase in conversion efficiency is due to a corresponding decrease in energy expended on metabolism e. g.,E. lucius.
Nahrungsaufnahme, Absorption und Konversion bei dem FischOphiocephalus striatus
Kurzfassung Individuen vonOphiocephalus striatus Bloch wurden nach verschieden langen Hungerzeiten gefüttert, um Aufschlüsse über Aufnahme, Absorption und Konversion der Nahrung zu erhalten. Nach einer Hungerperiode von weniger als 20 Tagen nahm die Nahrungsaufnahme um das Dreifache zu. Hungerten die Tiere länger als 20 Tage, so steigerte sich die Nahrungsaufnahme hingegen nur geringfügig. Trotz der erhöhten Nahrungsaufnahme war der Absorptions-Nutzeffekt dem der Kontrolltiere gleich. Der Konversions-Nutzeffekt verdoppelte sich bei Individuen, die weniger als 20 Tage gehungert hatten; daraus resultierte eine Überkompensation des Wachstums. Bei Tieren, die nach einer Hungerperiode von mehr als 20 Tagen wieder gefüttert wurden, konnte eine gewisse Verringerung des Konversions-Nutzeffektes sowie eine teilweise Kompensation festgestellt werden. Diese Ergebnisse werden im Hinblick auf ähnliche Versuche beiEsox lucius (Ivlev 1939) diskutiert. Es wird die Schlußfolgerung gezogen, daß sich bei Fischen, die nach verschieden langen Hungerzeiten erneut gefüttert werden, zwei Typen unterscheiden lassen: beim ersten Typ ist die Nahrungsaufnahme geringer als vor der Hungerzeit, der Konversions-Nutzeffekt jedoch durch Erniedrigung der für den Stoffwechsel aufgebrachten Energie erhöht; beim zweiten Typ erreichen Nahrungsaufnahme und Stoffwechselintensität sofort die Werte vor der Hungerzeit oder übertreffen diese sogar. Hierbei wird die Erhöhung der Nahrungsaufnahme von einer entsprechenden Vergrößerung des Konversions-Nutzeffektes begleitet.

Summary The young recent cassiduloidEchinolampas depressa has a lantern and teeth which are fully developed, but which never function because they disappear completely after metamorphosis. The lantern resembles morphologically that of the clypeastroid family Fibulariidae. The teeth are built-up of tooth elements, which have small primary plates, large lateral plates, and a cluster of prisms, and they are nearly identical to the teeth of fibulariids. In addition, the fine structure of teeth from liassic fossils was analyzed. This was the first investigation ever of the microstructure of fossil echinoid teeth. The examined teeth were well preserved, and proved to have nearly the same structure as the teeth ofEchinolampas. The results of this investigation prove that teeth of cassiduloid-clypeastroid structure were already in existence in the Liassic.Using micro structure as a comparative basis the author distinguishes between echinoid teeth of the clypeastroid type (present in Cassiduloida, Clypeastroida, and in all probability in Oligopygoida), and those of the regular type (present in all recent regular echinoids and in all probability in Holectypoida). The well-known aulodont, stirodont, etc., types of teeth and lanterns belong to the regular type. Teeth of the regular type are highly complex in structure, and certainly cannot be the result of evolutionary convergence. From the morphological point of view the clypeastroid type is the simpler one, and there is no indication that it is the result of secondary simplification. For this reason the anatomical features of the clypeastroid type of echinoid teeth are considered to be the more primitive. Contrary to the opinion of several authors, this author maintains that echinoids possessing a masticatory apparatus of the clypeastroid type are by no means descendents of stirodont ancestors.
Zusammenfassung Der rezente CassiduloideEchinolampas depressa hat nur in der Jugend eine Laterne. Diese Laterne und ihre Zähne sind vollständig entwickelt, obwohl sie nicht in Funktion treten, sondern nach der Metamorphose vollständig verschwinden. Morphologisch gleicht die Laterne derjenigen der clypeastroiden Familie Fibulariidae. Die Zähne werden von Zahnelementen zusammengesetzt, die kleine Primärplatten, große Lateralplatten und ein Büschel von Prismen besitzen. Diese Zähne sind fast identisch mit denen der Fibulariiden. — Außerdem wurde die Feinstruktur fossiler Zähne, die aus der Lias stammten, analysiert. Dies war die erste Untersuchung über die Mikrostruktur fossiler Seeigelzähne überhaupt. Die Struktur war bei den untersuchten Zähnen gut erhalten, und es wurde nachgewiesen, daß sie fast identisch mit der Struktur derEchinolampas-Zähne ist. Die Untersuchung beweist, daß Zähne von cassiduloid-clypeastroider Struktur schon in der Lias existierten.Aufgrund der Mikrostruktur unterscheidet der Autor bei den Seeigelzähnen den clypeastroiden Typ (vorhanden bei den Cassiduloida, Clypeastroida und höchstwahrscheinlich bei den Oligopygoida), und den regulären Typ (der beiallen rezenten regulären Seeigeln und höchstwahrscheinlich bei den Holectypoida vorhanden ist). Die klassischen aulodonten, stirodonten usw. Typen von Zähnen und Laternen gehören alle zum regulären Typ. Die Zähne des regulären Types sind von sehr komplexer Struktur, und dieser Typ ist sicher nicht das Ergebnis von Konvergenzen. Vom morphologischen Standpunkt aus ist der clypeastroide Typ der einfachere, und es gibt keinen Hinweis, daß es sich um sekundäre Vereinfachung handelt. Deshalb werden die anatomischen Merkmale des clypeastroiden Types als die relativ ursprünglicheren betrachtet. Im Gegensatz zur Ansicht mehrerer Autoren sind Seeigel, die einen Kauapparat vom clypeastroiden Typ besitzen, keinesfalls von stirodonten Ahnen abzuleiten.

Zusammenfassung An Totalpräparaten der Antennengeißel von Arbeiterin und Drohne vonApis mellifera carnica wurden Zahl und Verteilung aller Sensillen und Setae ermittelt. Dabei ließen sich anhand des cuticularen Baues folgende Sensillentypen unterscheiden: S. placodeum, S. ampullaceum, S. coeloconicum, S. campaniforme und 5 Haarsensillen S. trichodeum A, B1, B2, C, D, sowie 4 Setatypen (A 1–3, B), die wahrscheinlich nicht innerviert sind. Die Benennungen der Sensillen wurde den bisher gebrauchten Bezeichnungen gegenübergestellt. Sensillenzahl und -Verteilung, Sinneszellzahl und Funktion der Sensillen wurden anhand von Literaturangaben zusammengestellt und diskutiert. Bemerkenswert ist der starke Dimorphismus zwischen Arbeiterin und Drohne in der relativen Sensillenzahl für die einzelnen Sensillentypen und in der Gesamtzahl der Sinneszellen. So sind bei der Arbeiterin die wahrscheinlich olfaktorischen S. trichodea A und die mechanorezeptorischen S. trichodea B 1 wesentlich stärker vertreten. Die Drohne hat keine S. basiconica und im übrigen wesentlich mehr S. placodea als die Arbeiterin. Insgesamt hat die Drohne eine ca. 2-fach größere Geißeloberfläche und etwa 5-mal soviele Sinneszellen wie die Arbeiterin. Die Arbeiterinnengeißel hat auf ihrer Rückseite eine porenplattenfreie Zone, die dicht mit nichtinnervierten Setae besetzt ist. Bei der Drohne findet man stattdessen eine porenplattenärmere Zone mit einer geringeren Zahl von Setae. Charakteristische Verteilungsmuster bestehen auch für alle anderen Sensillen und Setae.
Number and distribution of the sensilla on the antennal flagellum of the honeybee (Apis mellifera L.)
Summary Number and distribution of sensilla and setae on the antennal flagellum of the honeybeeApis mellifera carnica were determined on whole antennal preparations. The following types of sensilla were distinguished according to their cuticular structure: Sensillum placodeum, S. ampullaceum, S. coeloconicum, S. basiconicum, S. campaniforme and 5 hair sensilla S.trichodeum A, B1, B2, C, D, as well as 4 types of probably non-innervated setae (A1–3, B). The names used here for the different types were compared with the previously used terms. Number and distribution of sensilla, the number of sensory cells and the function of the sensilla were discussed with respect to the data available from the literature. There is a notable dimorphism between the worker and drone with respect to the relative number of sensilla of each type and to the total number of sensory cells. The worker has far more of the presumably olfactory S. trichodea A and of the mechanoreceptive S. trichodea B1. The drone lacks the S. basiconica and has far more S. placodea than the worker. The flagellum surfarce of the drone is twice as large as that of the worker and has 5 times as many sensory cells. The worker flagellum has a poreplate-free zone on the side facing the head which is densely packed with non-innervated setae. In the corresponding zone the drone has a lower density of poreplates than elsewhere on its antennal flagellum. All other sensilla and setae are also characteristically distributed.
