Abstract:
The present study represents the second detailed report on the anatomy of the male reproductive system of the family Polydesmidae occurring in North America. During the time that the present work was being undertaken West (1952) conducted a similar investigation on Scytonotus virginicus (Loomis, 1943). His study also includes an account of the cytology of the reproductive tract together with one of the testicular cycle.
