Abstract

In Egypt genus Leichenum is represented by two species, Leichenum mulleri Grid., 1939 and Leichenum pulchellum Kust., 1849. Few studies have reported on both species all over the world. Both species are difficult for species identification so, the present study was examined specimens by SEM and found microstructural characters that facilitate identification of them. A number of new characters were added to the previous e.g. shape of setae and other vestitures, shape and structure of the intercoxal processes and submentum, also some old characters were emended.
