Spermiogenesis of the hangingfly Terrobittacus implicatus (Huang and Hua) (Mecoptera: Bittacidae)
Abstract
The structure of spermatozoa is able to provide valuable characters in resolving phylogenic relationships in Metazoa, especially in insects. Such data, however, are greatly deficient in Mecoptera. Here, we studied the spermiogenesis and ultrastructure of sperm in the hangingfly Terrobittacus implicatus (Huang and Hua) using transmission electron microscopy. The results show that the spermatogenesis of T. implicatus occurs within sperm cysts,...
