Figure 9


Fig. 9. Scanning electron micrographs of the femoral protrusion of a left hind leg viewed dorsally. The different parts of this figure are shown at the same magnification as comparable parts of Fig. 8. (A) The trochantera of both hind legs are partially depressed and reveal the femoral protrusion and the coxal protrusion on the left hind leg. (B) Higher magnification of the femoral protrusion (boxed in A) shows that it is covered in microtrichia whereas the surrounding cuticle is smooth. (C) Microtrichia cover the femoral protrusion and closely spaced hairs are present anteriorly. (D) Higher power view of the microtrichia on the femoral protrusion.
