mandibulate and haustellate.
Kaynak: Eating behavior in InsectsThe mouthparts of orthoptera n insects are often used as a basic example of
mandibulate (chewing) mouthparts, and the mandibles themselves
Kaynak: Mandible (insect mouthpart)The first larval stage is a caudate-
mandibulate type. The second larval stage is an acaudate and lives in the host haemocoele.
