status

 

The riveti View in CoL group

Diagnosis

Males of this group resemble those of the silhavyi group by the apophysis at the base of the embolus, but differ by presenting an apophysis at the base of the embolus that is short and conical ( Fig. 12B–C View Fig ); the sperm ducts are ‘U-shaped’ in the male palp when it is not expanded ( Figs 9B View Fig , 10C View Fig ). The females can be recognized by the short atrium, presenting a septum or not, and copulatory ducts narrow ( Figs 10F–G View Fig , 11F View Fig , 15F–G View Fig ).
