Figure 9

SEM and LM images of traps, trap entrances and trapdoors of U. cornuta, U. warburgii and U. prehensilis representing the UUTT3. (A) Sagittal section through the narrow, tubular trap entrance of U. cornuta (scale bar = 50 µm). (B) Sagittal section of a trap entrance of U. warburgii (scale bar = 50 µm). Note the free door edge, the fringe of long sessile glands presumably functioning as trigger hairs and the conspicuous pad on the door. (C) Sagittal section of a trap of U. prehensilis (scale bar = 500 µm). The trap entrance is tubular. On the trapdoor, sessile glands are observable and on the threshold a cavity. (D) View on the inner trapdoor surface. No pattern of concentric constrictions is visible (scale bar = 50 µm). Abbreviations: c = cavity, de = door edge, m = mucilage, p = pad, sg = sessile glands, th = threshold.
