Аннотация:The thoracic musculature of adult Sericoderus lateralis is described based on histological sectioning and 3D computer reconstruction. The thoracic musculature of Corylophidae is not strongly affected by miniaturization: S. lateralis has an almost complete set of muscles found in large Cucuiformia beetles. The intravital flight muscle degeneration related to the development of the reproductive system is described.
