dc:description"FIGURE 9. Phyllodromica iberica morph #3, male. A Thoracal nota. B–F Abdominal tergites 5–9. (B) Tergite 5; (C) tergite 6; (D) tergite 7 and (E) tergite 8 with glandular structures in the anterior part of the tergites; (F) tergite 9. G Terminalia with tergite 10 (sa), cerci and paraprocts. H Hook of left phallomere with the posterior end on the top. I Subgenital plate with remaining genital sclerites (without hook). Abbreviations: a apodemes of subgenital plate, ap anterior process, bf bristle field, c cercus, cl claw of hook, cs cleft sclerite, ea endophallic apodeme, hs helmet sclerite, ml median lobe, rp right paraproct, R3 sclerite of the right phallomere, s stylus, sa supraanal plate, sh shaft, st stalk, sub subgenital plate, tt transversal trough, v velum.

dc:description"FIGURE 10. Phyllodromica iberica morph #3. A–F male, SEM pictures of different tergal glandular structures in dorsal view. (A, B), (E, F) Two different forms of glandular structures of tergites 7 and 8 of two specimens; white arrow heads in A point to the bulge-like cuticule limitations of the antero-lateral borders of the bristle fields which is absent in the other form (white arrow heads in E); on tergite 8 bristles are also present in the central region of the tergite (white arrow heads in B, F); (C, D) Medio-anterior part of tergite 8 of two further specimens showing variously developed conelike processes. The unnatural shape of the tergite in B (compared with F) is due to an mounting artefact. G, H female. (G) Thoracal nota; (H) abdominal tergite 5. Abbreviations: a artificial structures (originated during SEM preparation procedure), bf bristle field, cp conelike process, r ridge between bristle fields, tt transversal trough. Same scale for (A, E), (B, F) and (C, D). Identification: (A, B) Sp 388/M1, (E, F) Sp 512/M1, (C) Sp 186/M7, (D) Sp 361/M2, (G, H) Sp 380/W1.";
dc:description"FIGURE 11. Phyllodromica iberica morph #3, male. A Tergite 8; B-E Tergite 6; in C, enlargement of the left half of the tergite depicted in B with narrow transversal torus-like structure (between white arrows) bearing bristles (white spots) in enhanced density; in D, lack of torus-like structure, only bristles (white spots) in enhanced density. D, E Tergite 6, two examples of different tergite colouration. F–H Abdominal tergites 6–8 of one specimen. (F) Tergite 6; (G) tergite 7, bristle fields antero-lateral without bulge-like cuticule limitations (white arrows); (H) tergite 8, conelike process nearly completely missing. I–L Abdominal tergites 6–8 of one specimen. (I) Tergite 6; (K) tergite 7, white arrows point to the shallow pouches appearing as crescent–shaped black shadows; (L) tergite 8, well developed conelike process. Same scale for (A, G, H, K, L) and (B, D, E, F, I). Identification: (A) Sp 395/M1, (B, C) Sp 148b/M1, (D) Sp 460/M1, (E) Sp 387a/M1, (F, G, H) Sp 270a/M1, (I, K, L) Sp 335/5.";
dc:description"FIGURE 17. Distribution of the bisexual species of the subaptera-group: Phyllodromica iberica morph #1, #2 and #3, and P. quadracantha; these species only occur on the Iberian Peninsula. In cases where two different symbols partly overlap, two P. iberica morphs are found at the same locality; in one case all three morphs occur together (Fig. 15, Sp 510 ca. 1° W, 40° N). P. iberica morph #3 symbols labeled with a “+” (Fig. 15, Sp 335) or an “ ” (Fig. 15, Sp 186, 270, 469 and 512) indicate the presence of morphological variations. At some localities no males have been found (“sad face” symbol) but females with spermathecae containing sperms and/or with oothecae containing male and female offspring. Both facts indicate the presence of a bisexual species of unknown specifity.";
