  1. Abbreviations: N(m)/N(f): number of individuals of the two sexes subjected to the antennal coiling test. # Tyloids: number of antennal segments carrying tyloids. Tyloid type: tyloid type described from shape, length and colour. Tyloid location: location of the tyloid-bearing antennal segments on the antennae; basal = segments 4 to about10, middle = segments 8 to 13, apical = segments 9 to 17. Coiling: coiling type as described in the materials and methods section. *information obtained from Manukyan 1987.
