Here I talk about the structure, function and modifications of insect mouthparts.
5 types of mouthparts are discussed:
Biting and chewing type - bites and chews food
Chewing and lapping type - used by bees to mould wax and to draw nectar
Piercing and sucking type (dipterous type and hemipterous type) - used for sucking liquid from plant and animal sources respectively
Sponging or lapping type - used as a sponge by flies to draw liquid from a flat surface
siphoning type - used as a straw to draw liquid nectar from flowers
