Gut structure of two species of the neotropical genus tauritermes krishna (isoptera : kalotermitidae)

Gut morphology of two species of the neotropical genus Tauritermes Krishna was analyzed. Detailed description of the coiling gut and the cuticular armature of the gizzard and first and second proctodeal segments of pseudergates are given. The characteristics of Tauritermes gut followed the pattern p...

Detailed description of the coiling gut and the cuticular armature of the gizzard and first and second proctodeal segments of pseudergates are given. The characteristics of Tauritermes gut followed the pattern previously known for the family, but some differences among this genus and other Kalotermitidae genera were: the length of the midgut, the structure and cuticular ornamentation of the first and second proctodeal segments, the junction of the third and fourth proctodeal segments and the armature of the rectal valve. Tauritermes was differentiated from other Kalotermitidae genera by means of the gut characters, currently used in termite systematics and phylogeny. En este trabajo se analizó la anatomía del tubo digestivo de dos especies del género neotropical Tauritermes Krishna. Se presentan descripciones detalladas del enrollamiento del tubo digestivo y de la armadura cuticular de la molleja y del primer y segundo segmento proctodeal de pseudoergates. Aunque las principales características observadas en Tauritermes se incluyen en el patrón previamente conocido para la familia, fueron establecidas varias diferencias entre este género y otros de Kalotermitidae, principalmente con respecto a la longitud del mesenterón, la estructura y ornamentación cuticular del primer y segundo segmento proctodeal, la unión del tercer y cuarto segmento proctodeal y la armadura de la válvula rectal. Los caracteres del intestino, actualmente usados en sistemática y filogenia de termites, permiten diferenciar a Tauritermes de otros géneros de Kalotermitidae. 2022-07-08T13:07:55Z 2022-07-08T13:07:55Z 2004-03 Artículo Godoy, María Celina, 2004.
