A morphometric approach to the comparative morphology of aedeagi shapes in net-winged beetles: A case study on the Macrolycus dotatus species group (Coleoptera: Lycidae)

Insect male genitalia show an evolutionarily variable morphology that is valuable for both species identification and phylogenetic analyses. However, we often encounter some difficulties when conducting relevant studies due to only quantitative variations exhibited in male genitalia. In this study,...
