Dica de Leitura

Female Penis, Male Vagina, and Their Correlated Evolution in a Cave Insect




Neotrogla curvata, one species of Neotrogla, during copulation. The female’s body is approximately three millimeters long. Unlike general insect mating, the female climbs atop the male to copulate.


The female penis of Neotrogla curvata inserted into the male in a photograph (top) and outline drawing (bottom). The female penis is shown in red.
