Ponomarenko, M. G., 2022, Functional morphology of the male genitalia of the family Autostichidae (Lepidoptera) with description of a new genus and a new species from the Russian Far East, Far Eastern Entomologist 464, pp. 7-20 : 14

Laszlogozmanya eclecticus sp. n.

MUSCULOSKELETAL APPARATUS OF MALE GENITALIA ( Figs 8–11 ). In musculoskeletal apparatus eight paired muscles (m 1, m 2, m 3, m 4, m 5, m 6, m 7, m 10) and two unpaired muscles (m 21, m 28):

m 1 – well-developed, attached along anterior and median parts of tegumen by anterior end and to latero-basal part of uncus by posterior end, functioning as depressor of uncus (Figs

8, 11);

m 2 – arised from near anterior margin of dorsal part of tegumen and attached to the base of dorso-basal process of valva (hemitranstilla), functioning as abductor of valva ( Figs 8 ,

11 );

m 3 – attached to medial side of valva and to ventral surface of juxta anterior part, functioning as abductor of valva ( Figs 9–11 );

m 4 – attached to antero-lateral part of tegumen and to base of dorso-basal process (hemitranstilla) of valva, functioning as adductor of valva ( Figs 8 , 11 );

m 5 – well–developed, stretched from medial surface of dorso-basal process (hemitranstilla)

of valva to base of aedeagus, going around the dorso-lateral edge of the anellus, functioning as protractor of aedeagus ( Figs 8, 10 );

m 6 – muscles merged into one, stretched from medial surface of saccus to ventral side of curved base of aedeagus, functioning as retractor of aedeagus ( Figs 10 , 11 );

m 7 – well–developed, intravalvar muscles, stretched from base of valva to anterior margin of saccular distal part, flexing valva transversally ( Fig. 11 );

m 10 – attached to dorsal part of tegumen and to anal conus, functioning as retractor of the latter;

m 21 – placed within basal part of aedeagus, functioning as retractor of vesica;

m 28 – placed within bulbus ejaculatorius, functioning as protractor of vesica ( Fig. 8 ).
