(A,G) Lateral view of the foreleg showing claws (cl), tarsus (ta), tibia (ti) and femur (fe). Fungal conidia attached and/or germinated on (B,H) claws, (C,I) tarsus, (D,J) tibial comb, (E,K) scales on the tibia and (F,L) scales on the femur. The red arrows point at the conidia and/or germinated conidia of B27 (B–F) and ECS1 (H–L); the red boxes in image A and G indicate the leg parts shown at higher magnification in images B–F and H–L, respectively. As there were numerous conidia either attached to, or germinated on the weevil, the arrows are used to indicate examples.
