It is closely applied to the nuclear membrane and is connected with an end of the spireme. |
In figure 107 one sees the spireme divided into segments still joined by linin bridges. |
The spireme here, as also in figure 99, is fine and closely interwound. |
As in most of the other species of Coleoptera, the unequal pair is not distinguishable until the spireme stage. |
Figure 55 shows the spireme segmented and split longitudinally. |
At first it is quite small, and it gradually increases in size during the spireme stage. |
