Bazı Tephritinae (Diptera: Tephritidae) türlerinin spermateka morfolojisi: Bir taramalı elektron mikroskop çalışması

Öz

Tephritinae altfamilyasına ait beş türün [Campiglossa producta (Loew, 1844), Campiglossa tessellata (Loew, 1844), Euaresta bullans (Wiedemann, 1830), Tephritis formosa (Loew, 1844), Tephritis nigricauda (Loew, 1856)] spermateka yapıları ışık ve taramalı elektron mikroskopu (SEM) kullanılarak incelenmiştir. Türler 1999 ve 2013 yılları arasında Türkiye’nin çeşitli illerinden toplanmıştır. Spermateka örneklerine Emitech SC 7620 Sputter Coater ile altın/paladyum kaplaması yapılarak Jeol 6390 LV SEM ile 10 kV’ da incelendi. Spermateka yapıları spermatekal bulb, pompalama bölgesi ve spermateka kanalı olarak karakterize edilmiştir. Makalede, her bir türün spermateka yapılarının tanımlamaları, spermatekal bulbun boyutları ve en-boy oranı ve SEM mikrografları sunulmuştur.

Spermathecae morphology of some Tephritinae (Diptera: Tephritidae) species: A scanning electron microscope study

Abstract

Spermathecal structure of five species [Campiglossa producta (Loew, 1844), Campiglossa tessellata (Loew, 1844), Euaresta bullans (Wiedemann, 1830), Tephritis formosa (Loew, 1844), Tephritis nigricauda (Loew, 1856)] from subfamily Tephritinae were examined using light and scanning electron microscopy. The specimens were collected between 1999 and 2013 from various provinces of Turkey. Spermathecae were coated in gold/palladium with a Emitech SC 7620 Sputter Coater and examined with a Jeol 6390 LV scanning electron microscope (SEM) operated at 10 kV. Spermathecal structures were characterized as spermathecal bulb, pumping region and spermathecal channel. Descriptions of the spermathecal structures, size of spermathecal bulb, aspect ratio of spermathecal bulb and SEM micrographs of spermathecae are presented for each species.
