The comb is fan-shaped and the pedicel is attached to the basal cell.This set up allows new cells to be added distally.The founding queen uses twigs or the surface of rock overhangs as horizontal supports for the nest.…
The ground color of the forewings is white, faintly tinged with grayish on the costal half.The ground color of the hindwings is brown, usually dark at least distally.…
Wings brownish; forewing transparent; hindwing more sharply dentate than in Protesilaus protesilaus nigricornis, the black postdiscal band straight, not interrupted posteriorly as in the protesilaus forms, the marginal and submarginal bands yellowish.Under surface more yellow than upper; the red line of the hindwing distally edged with white.Dorsal edge of the harpe not dilated into a large tooth, the apex of the harpe pointed, ventral process not denticulate.…
The blades of the leaves may be anything from cordate, ovate, obovate, elliptic, or oblong in shape to spatulate, oblanceolate, or lanceolate.They are usually gradually reduced distally, meaning they taper towards the apex.The leaf margins can be entire or serrate, i.e. toothed, though they may also occasionally be spinulose-serrate, that is being toothed with small spines.…
Seven metapodials (middle hand or foot bones) are known, rather variable in size, but MacPhee was unable to separate metacarpals (from the hand) and metatarsals (from the foot).All are rather short and are broad proximally and narrow distally.Among the few known phalanges, the proximal phalange is shorter than the middle one and the distal phalanges are narrow and clawlike.…
The marginal area is brown with several significant arrow patches.Two or three distally facing peaks continue as orange colored strokes sometimes up to the outer edge.Below the apex, there are dark arch stains and a white wavy line located at the outer edge.…
They are produced from short, somewhat woody rhizomes.Plants produce basal leaves early in the growing season that wither away before flowering, and many mid- and distally produced stem leaves.Typically the lower third of the cauline or stem leaves wither away also before flowering.…
The medial zone of the forewings is purplish with pale yellow distally and pale brown basally.The hindwings are pale brown, becoming pale golden yellow distally.…
The upperside of the males is similar to that of the males of Delias niepelti.The white area of the forewing is more sharply defined, more straight distally, and anteriorly rather more extended.There are two white spots beyond the upper angle of the cell.…
The head, patagia, anterior part of tegulae and the prothorax are black brown.The forewings are short and relatively narrow and the ground colour is beige towards the base and distally brown, with black brown areas throughout.The basal part of the costa, costal part of the triangular medial area and the terminal area are black brown.…
Both wing undersides are dark walnut-brown, dull, becoming somewhat olive distally, without a distinct brown border.
The forewing upperside has basal and antemedian bands.There is a triangular brown band, distally bordered by a thin white line followed by a darker line.There is also a triangular patch distal to these lines not strongly contrasting with the rest of the wing.…
The upperside of the females is black whereas the coloring is rather more extended than on the upperside of the females of D. niepelti.The yellow area of the forewing is more straight distally.The basal half of the hindwing is grey.…
The forewing underside is yellow-brown in the basal half and without markings.It is brown distally and slightly speckled with dark brown.The hindwing upperside is orange with a thin dark brown marginal band.…
They are light green and marked only with a white subdorsal streak over the thoracic segments.The horn is very long, straight, colourless at the base and green with black granules distally.…
Its color is yellowish-brown to green to dark brown, and it usually has a body length of 1.7-2.2 mm.It has long, hairy siphunculi (at least one-third of body length) dark brown curved outwards distally.…
The peritoneum lies deep to the posterior layer of transversalis fascia and is very adherent to it.Distally, this close contact remains in the area lateral to the epigastrics.Medially, however, the peritoneum reflects on the roof of the bladder and runs sharply dorsally, away from the deep layer of transversalis fascia.…
The forewings are grey, mottled and lined with blackish.There is a reddish brown bar running from the middle of the costa which is more clearly defined distally than proximally.The hindwings are dark greyish brown except at tornus and inner margin, where they are grey.…
An alternative transcript has been described, but its biological nature has not been determined.This gene has a closely linked pseudogene that is distally located.This gene encodes a member of a highly conserved protein family that exists from archaea to vertebrates and plants.…
Dorsal fur is grey-brown toning down to light grey distally, while ventrum is grey.The tail is red-brown and darkens distally.…
