Data had a normal distribution (Shapiro-Wilk test, P > 0.05). Proboscis length in two sexes were compared by a paired sample t-test, df = 29, t = 2.219, P = 0.034, n = 30; The asterisk shows the significantly longer proboscis. Mandible and maxilla lengths compared by ANOVA, df = 3, 36, F = 95.932, P < 0.001, n = 10, followed by Waller-Duncan post-hoc test; Letters indicate the statistically significant differences among groups.
