Fluid-Feeding Mouthparts,ng a pressure gradient and occur in plant sap-sucking insects, blood feeders, and predaceous species. Sponging proboscises are rather short and retractable. Their soft and cushion-shaped apical components take up liquids from open fluid sources. Siphoning proboscises are particularly long and primar

Physical Determinants of Fluid-Feeding in Insects,inking-straw model. Fluid-feeding insects expend muscular energy in moving fluid through the proboscis or through the sucking pump, depending primarily on the ratio of the proboscis length to the food canal diameter. A general four-step model of fluid-feeding is proposed, which involves wetting, dew

Comparative Functional Morphology of Ant Mouthparts and Significance for Liquid Food Intake,face is covered with small spadelike microtrichia that are regularly arranged in parallel rows. A comparison of glossa surface characteristics and volumes of muscles that control licking and sucking among four ant species differing in their feeding habits shows that morphology depends on the used fe

,From Chewing to Sucking via Phylogeny—From Sucking to Chewing via Ontogeny: Mouthparts of Neuropters food sources are used in larvae and in particular in adult Neuroptera. Morphological adaptations of the mouthparts of adult Neuroptera to the feeding on honeydew, pollen and arthropods are described in several examples. New hypotheses on the diet of adult Nevrorthidae and Dilaridae are presented.

Structure and Evolution of Mouthparts in Coleoptera, have evolved a broad spectrum of food preferences, with different modifications in immatures of carnivorous groups or groups specialized on faeces or fresh plant materials. Mouthparts as they are found in Myxophaga and basal groups of Polyphaga likely belong to the groundplan of Coleoptera. The maj

Adaptations to nectar feeding include either elongated maxillary palps or an elongation of the hairy galea. Although Coleoptera are considered rather unspecialised pollinators, various plant species have evolved floral syndromes, such as flower odour, colour and morphology, to att
