The fine structure of the stylets of the pear psylla, <i>Psylla pyricola</i> Foerster, and the greenhouse whitefly, <i>Trialeurodes vaporariorum</i> (Westwood), is described from sections studied in the electron microscope. Their mandibular stylets are innervated, each containing two dendrites.References
