1. Insects have a variety of mouthpart structures adapted for different feeding behaviors. These include chewing and biting parts, chewing and lapping parts, piercing and sucking parts, rasping and sucking parts, and siphoning parts.
2. Chewing and biting mouthparts consist of labrum, mandibles, maxillae, labium, and hypopharynx and are found in insects like cockroaches and grasshoppers. Siphoning mouthparts form a tubular proboscis from elongated galeae of the maxillae for sucking nectar, as in butterflies.
3. Piercing and sucking mouthparts are adapted for feeding on blood or plant sap
There are three main types of insects larvae

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

4. 4
Labrum (Upper lip)
It is flap like
Attached to the clypeus by an
articular membrane.
It is movable longitudinally.
It covers the mouth cavity
from above.
It helps to pull the food into
the mouth.
It holds the food in position so
that mandibles can act on it.
It forms the roof of the pre
oral food cavity.
5. 5
Mandibles
There is a pair of mandibles.
First pair of jaws, also called as
primary jaws or true jaws.
Mandibles articulate with the
cranium at two points. (dicondyle)
They are heavily sclerotised.
Toothed on their inner border.
There are two types of teeth.
Distal are sharply pointed and
are called incisor or cutting teeth
and proximal teeth are called
molar or grinding teeth.
It have two types of muscles:
Adductor
Abductor
7. 7
Maxillae
They are paired and more complicated
than mandibles.
Secondary or accessory jaws.
At proximal end the first sclerite cardo
joins the maxilla to head.
Second sclerite is called stipes which
articulates with cardo.
Stipes carries a lateral sclerite called
palpifer which bears a 5 segmented
antenna like maxillary palp.
On the distal end of the stipes, there
are 2 lobes. Outer lobe is called galea
and inner lobe is lacinia which is
toothed.
Maxille direct food into mouth.
They hold food in place when the
mandibles are in action.
Sense organs connected with
perception of touch, smell and taste are
abundantly found in palpi.
8. 8
Labiam
It consists of 3 sclerites viz.,
submentum (large basal), mentum
(middle) and prementum (apical ).
On the lateral side of the
prementum there are 2 small
lateral sclerites called palpifer
bearing three segmented labial
palpi.
Distally prementum bears 2 pairs
of lobes. Outer pair of lobes is
called paraglossae and inner pair
of lobes, glossae.
Both pairs when fused are called
ligula.
9. 9
Hypopharynx
It is a tongue like organ. It is
located centrally in the
preoral cavity. Salivary gland
duct opens through it.
10. 10
Mouthparts of insects vary to a great extend among
insects of different groups depending upon their
feeding habits. They are mainly of two types viz.,
Mandibulate (feeding mainly on solid food) and
haustellate (feeding mainly on liquid food).
Modifications of Mouth parts
12. 12
Chewing and biting types
It is the primitive type of mouth part and consists of
the following parts.
1. Labrum
2. Mandibles
3. Maxillae
4. Labium
5. Hypo-pharynx
e.g. Cockroach & grasshopper.
1. Grasping Mandibular MP – Larva of Lepidoptera
2. Grasping-Sucking MP – Larva of Coleoptera
3. Mandibulo-Suctorial MP - Larva of Neuroptera
14. Mouthparts of female mosquito consists of an elongate
labium which is grooved forming a gutter (rostrum) which
encloses six stylets.
The stylets are composed of
1. labrum - epipharynx (enclosing the food canal),
2. Hyphophrynx (containing the salivary canal),
3. Two maxillae
4. Two mandibles.
Female mosquito
15. 15
Both the ends of
maxillary stylets and
mandibular stylets are
saw like and suited
piercing flesh.
The stylets are inserted
into host's skin by a
strong downward and
forward thrust of body.
Both mandibles and
maxillae are reduced in
male and they feed on
plant nectar and juices
of decaying fruits.
16. Female pierces the skin of human beings
into which it injects saliva containing an
anticoagulant (to keep the blood flowing
without clotting) and an anesthetic (to
keep the victim unaware of the bite) and
sucks up the blood.
Maxillary palpi are absent.
17. Chewing and lapping types
Dr.Z Abu-Elnaga
Mandibles are blunt and
not toothed. They are
useful to crush and shape
wax for comb building and
ingest pollen grains.
Maxillolabial structures are
modified to form the
lapping tongue. The
tongue unit consists of two
galea of maxillae, two
labial palpi and elongated
flexible hairy glossa of
labium. The glossa
terminates into a small
circular spoon shaped
lobe called spoon or
flabellum which is useful
to lick the nectar.
18. 18
Mouth cone consists of labrum,
labium and maxillae. There are
three stylets derived from two
maxillae and left mandible.
Right mandible is absent.
Stylets are useful to lacerate the
plant tissue and the oozing sap
is sucked up by the mouth cone.
Both maxillary palpi and labial
palpi are present.
Asymmetrical mouth parts
Ex. Thrips
19. Mouth parts consists of
elongate sucking tube or
proboscis. It is formed by two
greatly elongated galeae of
maxillae which are zippered
together by interlocking
spines and hooks. Galeae are
grooved on their inner surface
and when they are fitting
together closely they form a
suctorial food canal through
which the nectar is sucked
up.
19
Siphoning types
20. 20
Siphoning types
The proboscis is coiled up like
watch spring and kept beneath
the head when it is not in use.
By pumping of blood into
galeae, the proboscis is
extended. The other mouth
parts are reduced or absent
except the labial palpi and
smaller maxillary palpi.
21. The proboscis is fleshy, elbowed, retractile and projects
downwards from head. The proboscis can be differentiated
into basal rostrum and distal
haustellum. The proboscis consists
of labium which is grooved on its
anterior surface. Within this groove
lie the labrum-epiphraynx
(enclosing the food canal) and
slender hypopharynx (containing the
salivary canal).
22. Mandibles are absent.
Maxillae are represented by single
segmented maxillary palpi. The
end of the proboscis is enlarged,
sponge like and two lobed which
acts as suction pads. They are
called oral discs or labella. The
surfaces of labella are transvered
by capillary canals called
pseudotracheae which collect the
liquid food and convey it to the
canal.
Labella function as sponging
organs and are capable of taking
exposed fluids.
These insects often spit enzyme
containing saliva onto solid foods
to liquify them.
23. Chewing and Biting Type Grasshoppers,
Cockroaches
Chewing and Lapping Type Honey Bee
Piercing and Sucking Type Aphids, Bugs,
Mosquitoes, Lice
