This is a copper-containing protein that helps to carry oxygen, and gives the haemolymph a pale blue colour.
23.
It also plays a role in the haemolymph of the polyplacophora where it serves to rapidly transport iron to the mineralizing radula.
24.
Phytoplasmas enter the insect's body through the stylet, move through the intestine, and are then absorbed into the haemolymph.
25.
Experiments have shown that the haemolymph is distasteful to at least two reptile species, but the repellent components have not been determined.
26.
More than 39 scolopidia, sensory cells, are involved in sensing the movement of the haemolymph between the cuticle and two tracheae.
27.
In the freshwater Planorbid snails, however, the haemocyanin is replaced by haemoglobin, and thus their haemolymph is red rather than blue.
28.
They also use their relatively long, sharp, mandibular tooth-like processes to pierce the mother s cuticle and feed directly on her haemolymph.
29.
The virus migrates to the salivary glands, haemolymph and intestinal wall and is thought to multiply in both the adult and larval stages of the insect.

The nymph grips onto the tree bark with all of its legs, swallows air and redistributes haemolymph to split the cast down the center of its back.
