    Uploaded by

    api-3732735
    Dr. Parvish Pandya's presentation discusses the different types of insect mouthparts. It identifies six main categories: 1) chewing mouthparts used by insects like beetles and grasshoppers, 2) rasping-sucking mouthparts of thrips, 3) piercing-sucking mouthparts of true bugs and hemipterans, 4) the mosquito and dipteran subtype using six stylets to pierce skin, 5) the sponging muscoid fly and louse fly subtypes, 6) the siphoning proboscis of lepidopterans, and 7) the chewing-siphoning mouthparts of hymenopterans like bees. Non-insects like ticks use

    Insect Mouthparts

    Dr. PARVISH PANDYA’s presentation


    Insects utilize nearly
    every organic substance

    animal

    plant

    solid Dr. PARVISH PANDYA’s presentation liquid


    Dr. PARVISH PANDYA’s presentation
    Head

    Important external features:


    1) Antennae -- contain chemical, olfactory, tactile, and auditory
    receptors. Can also sense vibrations.
    2) Compound eyes (vision/movement/color) and dorsal ocelli (light
    detection). Many insects perceive ultraviolet, blue-green and red
    wavelengths.
    3) Specialized mouth parts – food gathering, defense.
    Basic Structures of Insect
    Mouthparts

    • One labrum – upper lip


    • Two mandibles - jaws
    • Two maxillae – saw-like
    • One labium – lower lip

    1. Chewing Mouthparts

    • The “classic” design


    • Cockroaches, grasshoppers, beetles, etc.
    • Chewing lice, order Mallophaga
    • Many immatures, including nymphs and
    larvae

    Dr. PARVISH PANDYA’s presentation


    BEETLES

    Dr. PARVISH PANDYA’s presentation


    2 general types:
    1) mandibulate: specialized for biting off and chewing food
    (most nymphs)
    2) haustellate: specially adapted for piercing and sucking
    (e.g. mosquitoes and dipterans).

    • Thrips

    • Left mandible,
    • two maxillary stylets

    Gladiolus thrips

    Lily bulb thrips

    Greenhouse thrips

    Banded thrips
    Large-legged thrips

    Heterothrips salicis
    Dr. PARVISH PANDYA’s presentation
    3. Piercing-Sucking Mouthparts
    • Hemiptera and
    Homoptera (true
    bugs)

    • Sheath-like labium,
    four piercing stylets
    (2 mandibles, 2
    maxillae)

    Dr. PARVISH PANDYA’s presentation


    • piercing-sucking mouthparts
    • extraoral digestion BUG BEAKS
    • salivary glands
    • plant necrosis, animal stunning and poisoning
    • stylets – piercing and grooved

    Rhodnius

    Both
    Hemipterans
    feed on blood

    Bedbug, Cimex

    Dr. PARVISH PANDYA’s presentation


    4. Diptera: Mosquito subtype
    • Six stylets enter host
    skin (two mandibles,
    two maxillae, labrum,
    and hypopharynx

    • Labium acts as
    protective sheath and
    folds back as stylets
    enter skin

    labrum-epipharynx
    and hypopharynx
    form food canal

    4. Diptera: Louse fly subtype
    • Haustellum
    penetrates skin;
    labrum and
    hypopharynx form
    food and salivary
    canals

    • Louse flies
    (Diptera)
    • Hippoboscidae -
    includes sheep ked
    Dr. PARVISH PANDYA’s presentation
    5. Lice: piercing-sucking
    • Ventral stylet
    (perhaps labium) is
    principal piercing
    organ. Intermediate
    stylet (perhaps
    hypopharynx) and
    dorsal stylet (perhaps
    fused maxillae)
    penetrate skin

    • Sucking lice
