Types of ovarioles (egg tubules), 2
1. Panoistic (ancestral?)
• Apterygota
• Odonata
• Polyneoptera (orthopteroid orders)
• Siphonaptera/Mecoptera (Antliophora)
• Thysanoptera: ‘Neopanoistic’ (secondary origin)
2. Telotrophic (oddly distributed)
• Paraneoptera (Hemiptera, at least)
• many polyphagan Coleoptera
3. Polytrophic (specialized?)
• Most Holometabola (except fleas, scorpionflies, and polyphagan Coleoptera)
• Dermaptera
• Anoplura (and other Psocodea?)
Each has probably evolved multiple times independently.
