  1. Summary of the flagellomere dimensions of the female antenna for each species. flag – flagellomere number; L – average length (μm); W – average width (μm); se – standard error of the mean (+/-); SA – mean surface area per flagellomere (μm2); p– significance level in two-tailed t-test comparing mean surface areas. n = 20 individuals per species.
