标题:The external morphology of females, males and eggs of a Liposcelis silvarum (Insecta: Psocodea: Liposcelididae) strain with unusually developed compound eyes, visualised with scanning electron microscopy
摘要:The unusually developed eyes of a Liposcelis silvarum strain from Croatia were discovered using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Such a morphologically unique type of eye was previously unknown in the genus Liposcelis. The typical morphological characteristics of females and males, important for species diagnosis, were also described and visualised using SEM micrographs. This paper includes details of male genitalia and egg morphology not previously published for L. silvarum. Species status of this geographic strain is discussed.
