---|---|---|---|---|
Mean ± SD | Min–Max | Mean ± SD | Min–Max | |
Proterosoma length | 42.5 ± 3.51a | 38.1–51.81 | 41.26 ± 1.56a | 38.74–43.28 |
Hysterosoma length | 207.27 ± 22.45A | 170.28–239.87 | 128.34 ± 14.55B | 102.48–154.15 |
Body width | 67.56 ± 11.1A | 50.31–82.21 | 47.26 ± 3.49B | 39.96–53.57 |
Microtubercle length | 1.02 ± 0.17A | 0.64–1.47 | 1.59 ± 0.18B | 1.23–2.06 |
The length of the microtubercle (n = 120) was determined based on SEM, and other (n = 15) measurements were made from slide images. Uppercase letters indicate a significant inter-group difference at the 1% level, and lowercase letters indicate a significant intra-group difference at the 5% level.
