本文还讨论了在大多数真线虫幼虫中发现的微毛片和小巢的功能。小孔是幼虫水分平衡的重要排泄器官。微毛片被认为是幼虫运动方式的重要组成部分。这表明与某些Dirhagini和Macraulacinae幼虫相关的修改的气门领起着类似的作用。这对于Asiocnemis spp来说尤其明显。少数真正的木材钻孔真线科软体幼虫之间的总体相似性被认为是对相对坚硬木材的多次二次入侵的同质适应。
The function of microtrichial patches and areoles found in most eucnemid larvae is discussed. The areoles are regarded to be water excreting organs important for larval water-balance. The microtrichial patches were known to be an essential part of the larval locomotory method. It is suggested the modified spiracular collars associated with larvae of certain Dirhagini and Macraulacinae play a similar role. This appears especially clear with respect to Asiocnemis spp. The overall similarity between soft-bodied larvae of the few true wood-boring Eucnemidae is considered a homoplastic adaptation to Multiple secondary invasions into relatively hard wood.
