8. Donacia (Donaciomima) nitidior

Aedeagus ( Fig. 16 View FIGURES 9 – 20 ): Median lobe slender, ventral edge of median orifice projecting at right angle; median foramen expanding apical 1/3 of ventral surface of median lobe. Tegmen in ventrum triangular lobe in lateral view and in dorsum forming slender lobe with relatively short hairs in dorsal view.

Male internal reproductive system ( Fig. 28 View FIGURES 21 – 33 ): Testis discoid in shape, milky white in color. Accessory glands tubular, tapering toward base; of a pair of accessory glands, shorter gland about 2/3 times and longer gland 3/4–1 times as long as maximal width of 2 testis lobes combined. Lateral ejaculatory duct slightly tapering toward base, 1/2–2/3 times as long as maximal width of 2 testis lobes combined; common ejaculatory duct 2–2.5 times as long as maximal width of 2 testis lobes combined.

Female internal reproductive system ( Figs. 48, 49 View FIGURES 34 – 57 & 69 View FIGURES 58 – 75 ): Spermathecal organ connected to bursa copulatrix apically. Spermathecal capsule hook-shaped, tapering toward apex, constricted at middle; spermathecal duct uniform in width, a little less than half length to maximal length of spermathecal capsule; spermathecal gland tubular, becoming bold toward apex, 3–3.5 times as long as maximal length of spermathecal capsule.
