| Abstract: | The eggs of one proturan and two representatives of Collembola (Heteromurus nitidus and Hypogastrura succinea) were studied by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The proturan (Eosentomon) eggs are covered by 2 envelopes. The surface of the outer one is equipped with numerous hemispherical projections. The eggs of H. nitidus possess an envelope, which is studded with numerous granules. In H. succinea, eggs are covered with 2 envelopes. The outer is studded with characteristic complex structures. Neither micropyles nor aeropyles were observed in either proturan or collembolan eggs. |
