Homology and phylogenetic implications of male genitalia in Diptera - Eremoneura

Abstract: Homologies of male genitalic structures in the Eremoneura (Empidoidea + Cyclorrhapha) are examined and implications for the phylogenetic relationships of the included families are discussed in light of other characters. A revised epandrial hypothesis for the evolution of male genitalia within the Eremoneura is presented, based on comparison of male genitalic features throughout the Brachycera, and a periandrial hypothesis is rejected. Ground plan modifications of the genitalia of Eremoneura include complete sc… Show more

“…There are 85 attributed functions in 22 families, of which 52.9% facilitate deeper penetration and sperm transfer, and 32.9 % clasping. The evolutionary flexibility of function in dipteran genitalia (Wood, 1991 ;Sinclair, Gumming & Wood, 1994;Gumming, Sinclair & Wood, 1995;Lachmann, 1996) imply that this correction is conservative. In sum, male genitalic functions that are potentially ' non-conflictive ' when females are protected are clearly common in Díptera.…”
