adult abdominal spiracle [FBbt_00004814]
A spiracle of the adult abdomen. There are 7 pairs of these, in segments A1-7, in the anterior region of the pleural membrane. Each has a rigid circular rim and the opening leads to a tubular atrium lined by inward projecting circular lamellae. Where the atrium joins the trachea, the passage is constricted by a deep fold in the anterior wall which can be closed by the action of an associated spiracular occlusor muscle (FBbt:00013334).
