Text Appearing Before Image:
102 THE ALIMENTARY AND EXCRETORY SYSTEMS (CH. hypopharynx stands up in the cavity like a tongue, but appears to be an organ of touch rather than of taste. The epipharynx. on the other hand, is only slightly convex, and does not project appreciably into the cavity. The base of insertion of the hypo- pharynx lies far back on the labium. Quite close to it, in well-grown larvae and in imagines only, opens the duct of the salivary glands. The Salivary Glands (fig. 45) have been investigated by N. Poletaieft" (122,123) and Bordas (12). They are two in number, very small, and placed laterally in the prothorax, on either side and close to the oesophagus. Each complete gland consists of a large number of tiny acini or grape-shaped glands (fig. 45 d), ranging

After Bordas. from fifty in the smaller Zygoptera to over one hundred and fifty in the Anisoptera. The acini are usually broadly ovoid or pear-shaped. In Agrion (c), however, they are elongated. Each is lined internally by a single layer of secreting cells (ep), hexagonal, and resting on an outer basement membrane (6w). A dehcate chitinous intima (not visible in the figure) lines the lumen of the acinus internally. This is continued into the narrow mouth or duct of the acinus, and beyond into the main salivary duct (sd), where it becomes raised up into a spiral ridge (sj)) resembling the spiral thread of tracheae. The salivary ducts are narrow, and pass forwards, one on either side
