DISTRIBUTION OF TRABECULAE AND ELYTRAL SURFACE STRUCTURES OF THE HORNED BEETLE, ALLOMYRINA DICHOTOMA (LINNÉ) (COLEOPTERA: SCARABAEIDAE)
View through CrossRef
Abstract To clarify the dynamic construction of Allomyrina dichotoma (Linné) elytra, the distribution of trabeculae and surface structures has been investigated using scanning electron microscopy and transmitted light. There are solid trabeculae in the elytron and under penetrating light these can be seen as black dots. It is clear that trabeculae arrangement is almost entirely irregular throughout the elytron, except for some approximately straight alignment near some trachea. This irregular arrangement is different from the longitudinal rows of striations that are well known in other species, and there are no hollowed striae (punctures) on the elytral surface of A. dichotoma. Throughout the internal architecture of the elytron, there are mesh‐like (honeycomb) structures. Each honeycomb usually has 1–2 trabeculae mainly distributed at the corners of the honeycomb. The number of trabeculae present on each honeycomb is dependent on the size of the honeycomb.
