English: Fig. 122. Median section of the head and beak of an adult cicada
The sucking pump (Pmp) is the mouth cavity, the collapsed roof of which (e) can be lifted like a piston by the large muscles (PmpMcls) arising on the clypeus (Clp). The liquid food ascends through a channel between the maxillary bristles (MxB), is drawn into the mouth opening (Mth), and pumped back into the pharynx (Phy), from which it goes into the oesophagus (OE). A salivary pump (SalPmp) opens at the tip of the hypopharynx (Hphy), discharging the secretion of the large glands (Gl, Gl) into the beak |
