5种稻田突眼隐翅虫触角感器的超微结构研究

本文利用扫描电镜对小黑突眼隐翅虫Stenus melanarius、瘦突眼隐翅虫S.tenuipes、黑胫足突眼隐翅虫S.macies、虎突眼隐翅虫S.cicindeloides和阑氏突眼隐翅虫S.lewisius等5种稻田突眼隐翅虫雌、雄成虫的触角感器进行了观察和比较研究.结果表明,5种突眼隐翅虫的触角感器类型基本相同,均有5种感器,其中毛形感器和锥形感器又分为3个亚型:即B?hm氏鬃毛、毛形感器(毛形感器1、毛形感器2、毛形感器3)、刺形感器、锥形感器(锥形感器1、锥形感器2、锥形感器3)和栓锥形感器,同种感器形态相似;各种感器在触角上的分布相对稳定,具有一定规律;感器的分布、数量在种间及雌、雄两性间无显著差异.因此,触角感器可能不宜作为突眼隐翅虫种类鉴定的依据之一.     

The epipharyngeal sensilla of the damselfly Ischnura elegans (Odonata,Coenagrionidae)

The knowledge on Odonata adult mouthparts sensilla is scanty and, notwithstanding the epipharynx in the labrum is considered an organ of taste, no ultrastructural investigation has been performed so far on this structure in Odonata. The labrum of the adult of the damselfly Ischnura elegans (Odonata, Coenagrionidae) shows on its ventral side the epipharynx with sensilla represented by articulated hairs and by small pegs located at the apex of slightly raised domes. Under scanning and transmission electron microscope, the articulated hairs, with a well developed socket and tubular body, have the typical structure of bristles, the most common type of insect mechanoreceptors, usually responding to direct touch; the pegs, showing an apical pore together with a variable number of sensory neurons (from two to five), the outer dendritic segments of which show a dendrite sheath stopping along their length, have features typical of contact chemoreceptors.     

Morphological characterization of the antennal sensilla of the Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri Kuwayama (Hemiptera: Psyllidae), with reference to their probable functions

The Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri Kuwayama (Hemiptera: Psyllidae), is one of the most significant economic pests of citrus worldwide. This insect vectors three phloem-restricted bacteria in the genus Candidatus Liberibacter that cause huanglongbing (citrus greening), the most severe disease limiting citrus production worldwide. We examined the external morphology of the antennal sensilla of male and female D. citri using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and determined the putative functions of the identified sensilla using transmission electron microscopic (TEM) techniques. The filiform antennae of D. citri were of the conventional type comprised of a basal scape, pedicel and a long, thread-like flagellum, which is composed of eight flagellomeres. Eleven morphologically unique sensillar types were found and described on the antennae of male and female D. citri. Of those identified, the two apical setae, multiporous types I and II sensilla trichoidea, and the antennal rhinaria were porous and may be involved in perception of host- and mate-related volatile chemicals. However, the aporous types I, II and III sensilla trichoidea may have mechanosensory functions and the chaetica sensilla, cavity sensilla and unidentified uniporous sensilla may be involved in proprioception, thermo-hygroreception and cold detection, respectively. The shape, external morphology and array of sensilla on the antennae of male and female D. citri were similar. The only major difference observed was in the morphology of the short apical setae, whose tips were recessed inward in females but not so in males. The results are discussed in relation to plausible roles of the identified sensilla in mate and host location by this species.

Bioinspired Geometry‐Switchable Janus Nanofibers for Eye‐Readable H2 Sensors

Nanoscale architectures found in nature have unique functionalities and their discovery has led to significant advancements in various fields including optics, wetting, and adhesion. The sensilla of arthropods, comprised of unique hierarchical structures, are a representative example which inspired the development of various bioinspired systems, owing to their hypersensitive and ultrafast responsivity to mechanical and chemical stimuli. This report presents a geometry‐switchable and highly H₂‐reactive Janus nanofiber (H‐NF) array inspired by the structural features of the arthropod sensilla. The H‐NF array (400 nm diameter, 4 µm height, 1.2 µm spacing distance, and hexagonal array) exhibits reversible structural deformation when exposed to a flammable concentration of hydrogen gas (4 vol% H₂ in N₂) with fast response times (5.1 s). The structural change can be detected with the bare eye, which is a result of change in the optical transmittance due to the structural deformation of the H‐NF array. Based on these results, an eye‐readable H₂‐sensor that requires no additional electrical apparatus is demonstrated, including wetting‐controllable H₂‐selective smart surfaces and H₂‐responsive fasteners.
