Abstract: | The ovaries of Mutilla sp., as those of other hymenopterans, consist of meroistic-polytrophic ovarioles. Within each ovariole, a terminal filament, a germarium, and a vitellarium can be distinguished. The germaria contain numerous dividing and/or differentiating groups (clusters) of germ cells. The vitellaria are composed of several, linearly arranged, ovarian follicles; each follicle consists of an oocyte and a group of nurse cells. Distribution of cytoskeletal elements (microfilaments and microtubules) throughout the ovarioles of Mutilla sp. has been studied on whole mount preparations stained with rhodamine-conjugated phalloidin and FITC-labelled anti-tubulin. |
