In insects with fossorial legs the fore legs and tibiae are specialized for digging. |

Severe injuries, involving the loss of tibiae, femora, and entire legs were rare but did occur in four exclusive and six nonexclusive pairs. |
|
The pronotum of the younger nymphs is armoured with spines, and the tibiae of instars 3 to 5 show a white band. |
|
Mean ceftobiprole titres were 3-5 times higher in the infected left tibias compared to the uninfected right tibiae. |
|
The middle of the flagellum, the base of the abdominal segments, and the outer side of the mid and hind tibiae are infuscate or black colored, as are the wings. |
|
To testify the of this cemetery, you can see, just by the entrance, on one of the tomb stones a very famous emblem composed of two crossed tibiae bones surmounted of a skull. |
|
Most psammophilic species have expanded tibiae that function as shovels when these beetles are burrowing. |
|
Spur-like projections were noted in some of the metaphyseal margins, particularly of the proximal tibiae. |
|
This is allied to Lanieri, but is at once distinguished by the thorax, posterior coxae, femora and tibiae being entirely coccineous, and the four anterior legs black. |
