Results from EDX point measurements of the forcipular cuticle of Lithobius forficatus and Cryptops hortensis. A EDX results from the femur, tibia and tarsungulum of L. forficatus in atomic %. B Polished and smoothened longitudinal section of the forcipule of L. forficatus (SEM). Arrows and numbers indicate the locality of point measurements. C Polished and smoothened longitudinal section of the forcipule of C. hortensis (SEM). Arrows and numbers indicate the locality of point measurements. D EDX results from the tarsungulum of C. hortensis in atomic %
