The ratio of the width of apical third segment of the antenna, Q, to the head width, C, was used as an index of antennal pectination in C. chinensis. Western (Ethiopian, Iranian and Indian) strains showed smaller values of Q/C than eastern (Chinese, Korean and Japanese). The reduced pectination of the male antennae in the western strains is assumed to be caused by the its long indoor life on the seeds of Vicieae legumes, i.e. peas, horse beans or lentils which serve as only storage host of the bruchid.
