The TORTURA-Grovp 



Characterized in the male genitalia by the short, symmetrically bilobate uncus 

 and the ventral plate of the gnathus being turned through 90 degrees, these 

 surfaces usually in the ventral position are turned to the left side, and by the 

 asymmetrical form of the valves. The fulcrum arises just basad of one-half of 

 the aedeagus. 



In the female genitalia the posterior margin of the lamella antevaginalis is 

 irregularly serrate and there is a thorn-like projection from the posterior margin 

 of the lamella postvaginalis.
