Cópula de Sympetrum striolatum / Mating of Sympetrum strioatum

 

En esta cópula se puede apreciar claramente, si ampliamos la fotografía, como la escama vulvar (estructura en forma de embudo de la hembra debajo del S8) se encuentra unida a la genitalia secundaria del macho (S2) para transferirle su esperma.

 

In this copulation it can be clearly appreciated, if we enlarge the photograph, how the vulvar scale (funnel-shaped structure of the female below the S8) is attached to the secondary genitalia of the male (S2) to transfer its sperm to it.
