These feelers enable the insect to test the nature of its food, NoWj when an insect does not reduce its food by mastication^ but, as in the case of the Fly and others, obtains it by suction, aU the organs just enumerated appear to be wanting, and a proboscis or suction- pump is substituted, as being better adapted to the changed character of the food on which the insect subsists. On examining it m...ore closely, however, we find that the proboscis is, after all, but a transforma- tion of the maxiUary organs just referred to as exist- ing in the generality of insects. Let us take that of the House-fly for example. The proboscis of the Ply (PI. IV. fig. 1, c, and PI. V. fig. 1) consists of a tubu- lar bag, formed of thin transparent membrane, which arises from the front of the head, and is dilated at its extremity, forming at this part a large sucking disc.
