Summary

Granules in the midgut cells ofMegoura viciae Buckt. are described and found to consist of magnesium-phosphate and -carbonate; calcium may also be present. These granules are absent only in new-born larvae, but appear soon after the first uptake of food and accumulate during the four larval stages, being particularly striking in adults. The granules also occur in 25 other species of aphids, indicating that this phenomenon may be characteristic of aphids.
