The precopulatory behaviour of the larviform females of Ripidius quadriceps Abeille de Perrin, 1872 is described. The calling posture of virgin females is documented. The cephalic morphology and microstructures are visualized using scanning electron microscopy, in particular the secretory pores in the cuticle of inflatable maxillary palps. An exhaustive overview of relevant publications revealed that the location of secretory pores on the head of females is unique within the order Coleoptera. Compared to other beetles with sedentary calling females, the calling phase of the short-lived and non-feeding female of Ripidius is exceptionally short. For bioassays, various traps using virgin females of Ripidius were tested. It is likely that the sedentary behaviour of the short-lived female combined with a unique morphology and priority for investing in reproduction is compensated for by the actively flying males with remarkably flabellate antennae. The life cycle of this species, including some of the exceptions recorded at the individual level, is discussed. Perspectives for a biological and morphological survey of this rarely collected western Palaearctic species are outlined. In addition, the calling behaviour, secretory sites and location of pheromone glands in females of Coleoptera producing long range pheromones is reviewed. This article is protected by copyright.

寄生甲虫 Ripidius quadriceps Abeille de Perrin 的雌性呼唤、生命周期和微观结构

描述了 1872 年 Ripidius quadriceps Abeille de Perrin 幼虫雌性的预交配行为。记录了处女女性的叫声姿势。使用扫描电子显微镜观察头部形态和微观结构，特别是可膨胀的上颌触须角质层中的分泌孔。对相关出版物的详尽概述表明，雌性头部分泌孔的位置在鞘翅目中是独一无二的。与其他具有久坐呼叫雌性的甲虫相比，Ripidius 短命且不进食的雌性的呼叫阶段异常短。对于生物测定，测试了使用 Ripidius 处女雌性的各种陷阱。短命雌性的久坐行为与独特的形态和投资繁殖的优先权相结合，很可能被具有明显扇形触角的积极飞行的雄性所补偿。讨论了该物种的生命周期，包括在个体层面记录的一些例外情况。概述了对这种罕见的西部古北物种进行生物学和形态学调查的前景。此外，还综述了鞘翅目雌性产生远程信息素的信息素腺的调用行为、分泌位点和位置。本文受版权保护。版权所有。包括在个人层面记录的一些例外情况，进行了讨论。概述了对这种罕见的西部古北物种进行生物学和形态学调查的前景。此外，还综述了鞘翅目雌性产生远程信息素的信息素腺的调用行为、分泌位点和位置。本文受版权保护。版权所有。包括在个人层面记录的一些例外情况，进行了讨论。概述了对这种罕见的西部古北物种进行生物学和形态学调查的前景。此外，还综述了鞘翅目雌性产生远程信息素的信息素腺的调用行为、分泌位点和位置。本文受版权保护。版权所有。
