Graphosoma lineatum (Linnaeus 1758)

(Figure 4)

Spermathecal bulb is semi-oblong (Figs. 4.a,b). Apical region of spermathecal bulb has multiple pores, but there are no pores in the remainder (Figs. 4.b,c). Distal and proximal flanges are of equal diameter (Fig. 4.b). Pumping region with distal and proximal flanges smooth (Figs. 4.b,d,e). Length of distal spermathecal duct about one third that of proximal (Fig. 4.a). Distal and proximal spermathecal duct is a muscular structure (Figs. 4.f,h). Median portion of spermathecal duct dilated with thin muscular walls. Its muscular walls regularly textured (Figs. 4.g,h). Within median spermathecal dilation, sclerotized rod dilated at posterior portion (Fig. 4.a). Proximal spermathecal duct is made up of tranverse muscular fibers (Fig. 4.h). Two sclerites near opening of spermathecal duct; one circular and the other V shaped. Two ring sclerites at both lateral sides of genital chamber with opening of proximal duct (Figs. 4.a, ı, i).
