- Title
Musculature of the male genitalia in Rivellia (Diptera: Platystomatidae).
- Authors
Galinskaya, Tatiana V.; Ovtshinnikova, Olga G.
- Abstract
The musculature of male genitalia was studied hitherto only in two species of Tephritidae, one species of Platystomatidae, one species of Pallopteridae, and three species of Ulidiidae of the superfamily Tephritoidea. The split of the hypandrium from one structure into three (the hypandrium and two lateral sclerites) is traced. The hypandrial origin of the lateral sclerites of the hypandrial complex is shown based on the localization of muscle attachment sites. The subepandrial origin of the inner lobes of the surstyli is also confirmed.
