Descriptive Morphology of Male and Female Genitalia of the Long-horned Grasshopper in the Tribe Aphractini (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae), with a Key to the Genera.

Alejandro Vera, Paula Prelo

Abstract

. A dichotomous key to the genera is provided. The lengths between the female spermathecal duct and titillatory articulated processes are similar within species but differ between them. Therefore, we propose that the function of these organs could be associated with the sperm removal strategy.
