FUNCTIONAL MORPHOLOGY OF THE THORAX OF THE CLICK BEETLE CAMPSOSTERNUS AURATUS (COLEOPTERA, ELATERIDAE), WITH AN EMPHASIS ON ITS JUMPING MECHANISM

Functional Morphology of the Thorax of the Click Beetle Campsosternus auratus (Coleoptera, Elateridae), with an Emphasis on Its Jumping Mechanism

We investigated and described the thoracic structures, jumping mechanism, and promesothoracic interlocking mechanism of the click beetle Campsosternus auratus (Drury) (Elateridae: Dendrometrinae).Two experiments were conducted to reveal the critical muscles and sclerites involved in the jumping mechanism.They showed that M2 and M4 are essential cli
