We investigated and discussed the differences in cuticle and morphology of the samples taken from various altitudes. We observed that as the altitude gets higher, there is an increase in coverage of hair found on the head, antenna, thorax, and abdomen. </span> </p> <p> </p>}, number={2}, publisher={Kafkas Üniversitesi}
