In the Diplopoda and Pauropoda the two genital apertures lie behind

In the Sym-phyla (Scolopendrella) the unpaired genital aperture lies 

 on the 4th trunk segment between the legs of this segment.

In all Hexapoda, the genital apertures lie at the end of the abdomen, 

 in the male almost always behind the 9th, in the female behind the 8th 

 (in the Ephemeridce 7th) abdominal segment. 



Accessory organs are almost always found connected with the 

 ducts of the male and female sexual apparatus of all Antennata ; the
