麝在活动路线的树干、树桩等处摩擦臀尾的习性,早被猎民和生态学者们所了解。猎民称其被摩物为“油蜡”、“油桩”。郑生武等、永野为武曾有雄麝擦尾于树枝,以作为路线标志的记述。颜于宏等、毕书增等指出、雌、雄麝皆有在树干、树桩和墙角等处摩臀,或两只麝以臀部互相摩擦的习性。有关麝尾腺的形态结构至今未见报道。本文结合饲养麝摩擦臀尾习性的观察,对麝尾腺进行了解剖学、组织学和有关组织化学的实验研究,以期对其形态结构、信息素分泌释放,及其分泌方式和通讯机能进行探讨。了解麝的行为,对于麝的饲养、繁殖,以及保护与猎狩都有积极的意义。 The habit of rubbing the hips and tails on trunks, stumps, etc. on the active route has long been understood by hunters and ecologists. The hunters claimed that their objects were “oil wax” and “oil piles”. Zheng Shengwu et al. and Yonno had wiped their tails on the branches for the purpose of marking the route. Yan Yuhong et al. and Bi Shuzeng pointed out that females and males have the habit of rubbing their hips on trunks, stumps, and corners, or rubbing their hips together. The morphological structure of the appendix gland has not been reported so far. In this paper, the anatomical, histological and related histochemical studies of the appendix glands were carried out in conjunction with the observation of the habits of raising the bream and gluteal tail. The morphological structure, secretion of pheromones, and their secretion patterns and communication functions were discussed. . Knowing the behaviour of crickets has positive implications for the breeding, breeding, protection and hunting of crickets.
