Propodeum
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found. The propodeum is the first abdominal segment in Apocrita Hymenoptera (wasps, bees and ants). It is fused with the thorax to form the mesosoma. It is a single large sclerite, not subdivided, and bears a pair of spiracles. It is strongly constricted posteriorly to form the articulation of the petiole, and gives apocritans their distinctive shape.
