꼬리명주나비(서ericinus montela) 조혈기관의 분포 및 미세구조를 광학현미경과 투과전자현미경을 이용하여 관찰하였다. 꼬리명주나비의 조혈기관은 흉부 제 2 · 3체절의 날개발생부위(imaginal wing disc)에 부착되었거나 인접해 있었다 각각의 조혈기관은 비세포성 기저 막으로 둘러싸인 여러 개의 조혈섬으로 구성되어 있었으며, 조혈 섬들은 compact islet(치밀하게 배열된 조혈섬)과 loose islet(느슨하게 배열된 조혈섬)으로 구분되었다. 혈구의 분화는 loose islet 내에서 진행되었으며, 시원세포로부터 원시혈구. 부정형혈구, 과립혈구, 소구혈구가 독자적 경로를 통해 분화되었다.

Ultrastructure of the larval hemocytes in Sericinus montela Grey was observed with the transmission and scanning electron microscope. The 5 cell types, according to Breh lin and Zachary(1986), identified in the hemocytes of the last instar S. montela larva were; prohemocyte, plasmatocyte, granular cell, spherule cell and oenocytoid. Prohemocytes could be easily charaterized by a relatively large nucleus nd poorly developed cytoplasmic organelles. Plasmatocytes were relatively large spindle-shaped or oval cells with fibrous bundles. The spindle-shaped plasmatocytes, especially, were characterized by a well developed, elongated nucleus. Granular cells had various granules, either morphologically or in electron density, and highly developed cytoplasmic organelles in the cytoplasm. They had numerous cytoplasmic processes. Spherule cells were characterized by cytoplasmic spherules containing fine materials, which are released into the hemolymph upon maturity of the cell. Oenocytoids consisted of electron dense materials and the organelles in cytoplasm were poorly developed.

Ultrastructural characteristics of hemocytic differentiation pathway in Sericinus montetla Grey were observed with transmission electron microscope. Hemocytic differentiation took place in loose islets of hemopoietic organs as indicated by the presence of differentiating hemocytes; prohemocytes, plasmatocytes, granular cells and spherule cells. They are differentiatied from the stem cells through individual cell lineages. However, differentiating aspects of the oenocytoids were not observed. According to Brehelin and Zachary (1986), the premature hemocytes around the hemopoietic organs were classified into five types; prohemocytes, plasmatocytes, granular cells, spherule cells and oenocytoids.
