Figure 4

Alimentary canal of a male (A,B,C) and a female coffee berry borer (D,E,F): right-lateral (A,D), ventral (B,E), and dorsal (C,F) views. Red arrows indicate the rectal ampulla. Lateral views of the male (G) and female (H) alimentary canals with the trajectories and convolutions of the midgut and hindgut shown in yellow. Each time the digestive tracts began a new trajectory curve, the new tract is marked with an incremental number. Anterior-transversal (I) and sagittal (J) cuts close to the stomodaeal valve of the midgut reveal the internal papillae.
