The Palpigerous Scales and Palpi.âOn each side of the rostrum, near its apex, there is a convex scale (PI. VI., p s), which sup- ports a single-jointed clavate palpusâthe maxillary palpusâat its inner proximal angle. These scales are united in many of the Diptera by a curved plate of chitin, which embraces the posterior surface of the rostrum. Sesamoid Sclerites.âI apply this term to two small nodulated fusiform rods of chitin close to the apex of the rostrum on its Fig. 27.âA portion of the Proboscis of the Blow-fly, showing the relations of the prelabrum with the theca ligula and pharynx : ap, apodeme of the labrum ; pli, the pharynx ; /y, hyoid sclerite ; ///;, prepharyngeal tube ; >â >; part of the rostrum ; ///, the prelabrum ; lig, the ligula ; // /; h, the haustellum ; ,c,(, sesamoid sclerite ; //' s, thyroid sclerite ; vi »i, muscles ; Ir, trachea ; IJ, lingual, and sd, salivary ducts ; sv, salivary valve. ventral aspect. They give insertion to the long retractor muscles of the rostrum (Fig. 27, ss). The Haustellum, or middle joint of the proboscis, consists of two valves, a large ventral or posterior valve, which I shall term the thcca, and a narrow styliform dorsal or anterior valve, the prelabrum. The prelabrum lies in a groove on the anterior face of the theca, the edges of which overlap it. The theca ends distally in the great two-lobed oral disc, or sucker. The Oral Sucker is a
