Structure and ultrastructure of the spermatozoa of Trypoxylon (Trypargilum) albitarse Fabricius 1804 (Hymenoptera: Apoidea: Crabronidae)
چکیده انگلیسی

The ultrastructure of the spermatozoa of Trypoxylon (Trypargilum) albitarse is described here for the first time within this genus. Testes and seminal vesicles were dissected and processed for transmission electron microscopy. In the testicular follicles, the spermatids are arranged in a maximum number of 32 for each cyst. The spermatozoa are slender and they measure approximately 150 μm in length. The head is about 17 μm long and is formed by the acrosome and the nucleus. The flagellum consists in an axoneme, two mitochondrial derivatives, two accessory bodies and, at the nucleus–flagellum transition, a symmetric centriolar adjunct. The axoneme presents the typical 9 + 9 + 2 microtubule pattern. In the terminal region, the central microtubules and nine doublets finish first, followed by the accessory microtubules. Both mitochondrial derivatives begin together and are inserted in the base of the centriolar adjunct. Along the middle region, the larger derivative has almost twice the area of the smaller one and includes a discrete paracrystalline region. At the tip, the smaller derivative ends before the larger one and both before the axoneme. The characters derived from the ultrastructure of the spermatozoa of T. albitarse show synapomorphies shared with the Apoidea and present characters that are probably apomorphic for the Crabroninae subfamily.
