Ovaries of Palaeococcus fuscipennis (Burmeister) are accompanied by large organs termed bacteriomes which are composed of large cells termed bacteriocytes. Each bacteriocyte is surrounded with small epithelial cells. The bacteriocyte cytoplasm is tightly packed with pleomorphic bacteria, whereas in epithelial cells small coccoid microorganisms are present. The number of coccoid bacteria is significantly lower than pleomorphic bacteria. The ovarioles containing choriogenic oocytes are invaded both by pleomorphic as well by coccoid bacteria. Microorganisms traverse the follicular epithelium and enter the perivitelline space. During advanced choriogenesis, endosymbionts are accumulated in the deep depression of the oocyte. Bacteria do not enter the ooplasm until the end of oocyte growth.

Ovaries of Palaeocoocus fuscipennis are composed of about 100 telotrophic ovarioles that are devoid of terminal filaments. In the ovariole a tropharium (=trophic chamber) and vitellarium can be distinguished. The tropharium contains 7 trophocytes. A single oocyte develops in the vitellarium. The oocyte is surrounded by follicular cells that do not undergo diversification into subpopulations. The obtained results are discussed in a phylogenetic context.

Follicular cells in ecuadorian dictyopharids diversify into two subpopulations: the main body cells (MFs) and cells surrounding the anterior pole of the oocyte (AFs). The synthetic activity of both categories of follicular cells is manifested by the presence of numerous cisternae of rough endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi complexes and vacuoles containing electron-dense material in their cytoplasm. The MFs synthesize precursors of the main body chorion, whereas the AFs are responsible for the formation of micropylar apparatus and respiratory tubules. The main body chorion is composed of thin endochorion and exochorion which forms pillar-like projections.
