            <p> Sennius crudelis Ribeiro­Costa &amp; Reynaud</p>
            <p>Eggs laid singly, elongate, 0.88 mm in length and 0.25 mm in width (n=10), slightly enlarged on one end (Fig. 1) and covered by a membrane, not ornamented (Fig. 2). There are two bands of anchoring strands on each side, one internal and with shorter strands and other external with longer strands; all of them with an area enlarged near surface to form a homogeneous adhesive flange (Figs. 1, 3). Two others elongate strands are placed at each end of the egg and also have the function of attaching the egg to the surface (Fig. 4). The size of the egg and flange together are 1.46 mm in length and 0.40 mm in width (n=10).</p>
            <p> The elongate form of the egg is similar to that of  Pachymerus nucleorum (Fabricius) , some  Acanthoscelides Schilsky and some  Sennius (Bondar 1937; Terán &amp; L’Argentier 1979; L’Argentier &amp; Terán 1980; Wightman &amp; Southgate 1982; Ribeiro­Costa &amp; Costa 2002). Terán and L’Argentier (1979) when describing the egg of  S. laminifer , wrote that the egg enlargement corresponded with the size of the larva head. </p>
            <p> Egg anchoring strands are common in  Sennius . Bondar (1937) commented that the eggs of  Sennius lateapicalis ,  S. subdiversicolor and  S. laminifer have two elongated anchoring strands at each end and it is surrounded by numerous anchoring strands. Center and Johnson (1973) observed numerous anchoring strands on the eggs of  S. morosus and  S. simulans , while eggs of  S. medialis have only two anchoring strands at each end. Ribeiro­ Costa and Costa (2002) also observed that eggs of  Sennius leptophyllicola are surrounded by numerous anchoring strands. </p>
            <p> Anchoring strands appear in eggs of other genera of Bruchinae, like  Caryedes minor (Pic) ,  Merobruchus julianus (Horn) ,  Acanthoscelides bicoloripes (Pic) and  A. nigronotaticeps (Pic) (Bondar 1931, 1937; Forister &amp; Johnson 1970; L’Argentier &amp; Terán 1980). </p>

            <p> Sennius bondari (Pic)</p>
            <p>Eggs laid singly, ovoid, 0.68 mm in length and 0.42 mm in width (n=10) (Fig. 5), covered by an ornamented membranous flange that forms a continuous pattern of hexagonal rings (Fig. 6). This membranous flange is larger than and surrounds the egg, then becomes smooth and on lateral areas forms an undulate flange that attaches the egg on the surface (Figs. 5, 7). The size of egg and flange together are 0.85 mm in length and 0.64 mm in width (n=10).</p>
            <p> The egg of  S. bondari has already been described by Ribeiro­Costa (1998), however not based on scanning electron micrographs. For this author, the ornamented areas of the membrane are restricted to the lateral borders. Moreover, the eggs were smaller than recorded in the present paper, which is possible because egg size is highly plastic and very subject to maternal effects (Credland 1992; Fox 2000; Fox et al. 1997a, b; Fox et al. 2001). </p>
            <p> An ornamented membrane has been reported on the eggs of other species of Bruchinae, like  Acanthoscelides argillaceus (Sharp) ,  Bruchidius atrolineatus (Pic) ,  Caryedon serratus (Olivier) and some species of  Amblycerus Thunberg (Bondar 1937; Terán &amp; L’Argentier 1979; Pfaffenberger 1979; Wightman &amp; Southgate 1982; Biémont et al. 1982; Ribeiro­Costa 1998). </p>
            <p> The characteristic of the membranous flange that surrounds the egg, is not unique to  S. bondari , appearing, for example, in  Caryedon serratus ,  Gibbobruchus mimus ,  Neltumius texanus (Schaeffer) ,  Pectinibruchus longiscutus Kingsolver ,  Pygiopachymerus lineola ,  Zabrotes subfasciatus (Boheman) , some species of  Amblycerus , some species of  Callosobruchus Pic , some species of  Megacerus and some species of  Stator Bridwell (Johnson &amp; Kingsolver 1975; Johnson 1978; Pfaffenberger 1979, 1981, 1986; Terán &amp; L’Argentier 1979; Wightman &amp; Southgate 1982, Pfaffenberger et al. 1984; L’Argentier 1990; Ribeiro­ Costa 1998; Johnson et al. 2001; Ribeiro­Costa &amp; Costa 2002). Nevertheless, in those species, the flange is irregular, except in  Stator vachelliae Bottimer , on which the flange is serratulate; in  Sennius bondari the flange is undulate. </p>

            <p> Sennius nappi Ribeiro­Costa &amp; Reynaud</p>
            <p>Eggs laid singly, ovoid, 0.74 mm in length and 0.39 mm in width (n=10) (Fig. 8), covered by an ornamented membranous flange composed of small triangles (Figs. 9, 10). Membranous flange surrounding egg larger, smooth at one end, elongate, truncate and tubular at other end, respiratory tube 0.23 mm in length (n=10), with a small aperture (Fig. 8). The size of egg and flange together are 1.07 mm in length and 0.55 mm in width (n=10).</p>
            <p> Due to its ovoid form, the egg of  S. nappi is more similar to the egg of  S. bondari when compared to the other  Sennius that have elongated eggs. </p>
            <p>An ornamented membrane is found in other bruchine species as already quoted in this work. Nevertheless, the type of the ornamentation, composed of small triangles, is described for the first time.</p>
            <p> The flange of the membrane that surrounds the egg of  S. nappi is irregular, similar to those found in some other species of Bruchinae (Johnson &amp; Kingsolver 1975; Johnson 1978; Pfaffenberger 1979, 1981, 1986; Terán &amp; L’Argentier 1979; Wightman &amp; Southgate 1982; Pfaffenberger et al. 1984; L’Argentier 1990; Ribeiro­Costa 1998; Johnson et al. 2001; Ribeiro­Costa &amp; Costa 2002). </p>
            <p> The tube with a small aperture occurs in some species of  Callosobruchus . This structure is used as a route between the exterior and interior of the egg for exchange of respiratory gases and water loss or uptake (Wightman &amp; Southgate 1982; Credland 1992; Daniel &amp; Smith 1994). The morphology of this tube is used for species identification as in the case of  Callosobruchus (Wightman &amp; Southgate 1982) , or for identification of strains (Daniel &amp; Smith 1994). </p>
