Hi Jere,

I'll try and dehydrate some in acetone, see if I can make them visible! Sounds interesting! Yes you'ld rather expect females to have such pouches distributing pheromones. However in these Teprhitid cases it is known that males protect possible oviposition-sites, therefore it will be handy for males to let their females know which capitula is defended for that particular species, especially if you have a male of a sibling species on the capitula next to you!
