متن کاملTowards the phylogeny of chafers (Sericini): analysis of alignment-variable sequences and the evolution of segment numbers in the antennal club.
Scarabaeoid beetles display a distinctive lamellate antenna carrying olfactory sensillae which show various trends of surface enlargement, including the increased number of the terminal lamellate antennomeres. The presence of >3 lamellae ('plurilamellate' antennae) in some groups has been used in the classification of chafers (Melolonthinae) and in particular in the tribe Sericini. However, thi...
