Character

Parameres of male genitalia [133]

Description

Parameres are lateroventral appendages of the male genital capsule lateral to the volsellae. If only one ventrolateral appendage is present it may not be possible to determine if it is the paramere or the volsella and in such instances this character was scored as inapplicable. Citations: Darling (1983: 8); Noyes & Hayat (1994: 64).
