Abstract

Morphology of adult female and male reproductive systems of Strumeta tryoni (Froggatt) is described and figured. Growth changes in adult male reproductive endoskeleton are described under differing conditions of temperature and light intensity. For the environmental conditions studied, physiological age was correlated with size of the male reproductive endoskeleton and a method for distinguishing teneral from sexually mature adults is given.
