FIGURES 1–12 in Egg ultrastructure of two species of Galgupha Amyot & Serville, with a discussion of the eggs and oviposition patterns of thyreocorid and allied groups (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Pentatomoidea: Thyreocoridae)

FIGURES 1–12. Eggs of Galgupha (Euryscytus) difficilis and Galgupha (Gyrocnemis) fossata. 1— Eggs of G. (E.) difficilis laid in pair, at right angle to each other, attached to branch of Buddleia brasiliensis, viewed with stereomicroscope (SM). 2–6— Eggs of G. (E.) difficilis viewed with scanning electron microscope (SEM): 2— lateral view, 3— anterior view, 4— magnification of anterior pole in lateral view, 5— magnification of anterior pole in anterior view, 6— micropylar process, with circular apical opening. 7–8— Eggs of G. (G.) fossata in SM: 7— Eggs laid singly (arrows), attached to inflorescence of B. brasiliensis, 8— Egg attached to branch of the plant, with conspicuous chorion sculpture. 9–12— Eggs of G. (G.) fossata viewed with SEM: 9— lateral view, 10— anterior view, 11— magnification of anterior pole; chorion sculpture with granules and tubercles, 12— micropylar process, with transverse constriction and circular apical opening. Abbreviations: ga—granulated area, mp—micropylar process.
