The cephalothorax, abdomen, and femora of all the legs are bright orange color, with brilliant yellow and green reflections. |
The only bones that now survive from the excavation are four femora that were recovered from the south-eastern burial chamber. |
Guinea-pigs which were thus treated showed no microscopic signs of scurvy in any of the ribs, in the tibi or the femora. |
Relative to the foundress, soldiers have an enlarged prothorax and fore femora, reduced wings and antennae, and a pale exoskeleton. |
The front legs are orange brown, with the femora darker on the front and rear edges. |
Severe injuries, involving the loss of tibiae, femora, and entire legs were rare but did occur in four exclusive and six nonexclusive pairs. |
