摘要

昆虫，特别是鳞翅目昆虫的雄性和雌性生殖器的特征，对物种鉴定至关重要，因为它们表现出广泛的形态变异。在嵌入式生殖器中，由于生殖器的位置和盖玻片的压力，一些诊断特征的出现可能会令人困惑。这可能会导致分类学上的误解。此外，由于生殖器漂移或硬化，在乙醇中拍摄生殖器结构很困难。本文介绍了一种在乙醇中固定生殖器位置的方法，这种方法可以进行比较特写摄影。通过对三种三叶虫的囊状投影进行说明，证明了该方法的优越性。

An effective method for the close up photography of insect genitalia during dissection: a case study on the Lepidoptera

Characters of male and female genitalia in insects in general, especially in Lepidoptera, are essential for species identification as they display extensive morphological variation. In embedded genitalia, due to the positioning of the genitalia and the pressure of the cover glass, the appearance of some diagnostic characters might be confusing. This potentially leads to taxonomic misinterpretation. Additionally, the photography of genitalia structures in ethanol is difficult, due to drift or hardening of genitalia. A method is presented here to fix the position of the genitalia in ethanol, which allows comparative close up photography. The advantage of the method is demonstrated by illustrating the sacculus projection of three Triphosa species.

期刊介绍： Nota Lepidopterologica is the scientific, peer-reviewed journal of the Societas Europaea Lepidopterologica (SEL). It publishes original contributions to the study of mainly but not exclusively Palaearctic Lepidoptera, especially on taxonomy, morphology/anatomy, phylogenetics, biogeography, ecology, behaviour, and conservation, but also on any other aspects of lepidopterology. All articles are published in English, with the possibility of having the summary written in other languages. All submitted manuscripts are subject to peer-review by the leading specialists for the respective topic. The journal is published in open access high-resolution PDF, semantically enriched HTML and machine-readable XML versions. All papers can be freely copied, downloaded, printed and distributed at no charge. Authors and readers are thus encouraged to post the pdf files of published papers on homepages or elsewhere to expedite distribution. Publication is free for the SEL members and there is no charge for color.
