THE ALIMENTARY CANAL OF SCOLYTUS MULTISTRIATUS (COLEOPTERA: SCOLYTIDAE): A HISTOLOGICAL STUDY
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 31 May 2012
Abstract
A study of the anatomy and histology of the alimentary canal of Scolytus multistriatus Marsham suggests that the midgut diverticula are centres for the regeneration of the midgut cells and that the structure of the midgut epithelium and the proventriculus facilitate the rapid uptake of nutrients from food.
