Abstract

The reproductive system of the adults of Phyllotreta striolata(Fabricius)was observed through anatomy method.The results showed that the reproductive system of female adult was constituted by a pair of ovaries,a pair of lateral oviducts,median oviduct,bursa copulatrix,spermatheca,genital chamber and ovipositor.The reproductive system of male adult was constituted by a pair of testes,a pair of vas deferens,a pair of male accessory glands,ejaculatory duct and penis.There were 8-12 ovarioles in an ovary of female adults,there were 7-10 ova in an ovariol,so there were 112-240 ova in an ovary.The abdomen and penis of male adult were bending,which was helpful to successful mating.
