Figs. 18–21 in Immatures of the Solitary Bee Camptopoeum friesei (Andrenidae: Panurginae: Panurgini) and of its Cleptoparasite Parammobatodes minutus (Apidae: Nomadinae: Ammobatini)

Figs. 18–21. Oocytes of Parammobatodes minutus. 18. Entire oocyte, anterior end toward right, lateral view, with chorion too badly damaged to demonstrate transverse dorsal folds. 19. Close-up of operculum, showing flange draped over and clinging to rest of oocytes; flange almost certainly outstretched and continuous with surface of operculum after deposition in host cell, as in Pasites maculatus (see Rozen, 1986: figs. 5, 6), presumably an adaptation to obscure seam in cell wall so that returning host female will not detect parasite egg. 20. Close-up of another oocytes, end view, showing texture of surface and micropyle on left. 21. Close-up of micropyle.
