1865Douglas & Scott Brit. Hemiptera I. 3 In the Corium are at least 2 principal longitudinal nerves, and sometimes 1 within the anterior margin separates a narrow portion, forming the Embolium. 1895J. H. & A. Comstock Man. Study Insects 125 Classification of the Heteroptera... In certain other cases, a narrow piece on the costal margin of the corium is separated by a suture; this is the embolium. 1899G. H. Carpenter Insects 187 The corium..in most families reaches to the costa, but in one is separated from that edge by a narrow embolium. 1959Southwood & Leston Land & Water Bugs 411 Embolium, used traditionally in the Cimicidae for the area between the costal margin and the anterior furrow; a bad term. |
