Genitalia: Left phallomere - Sclerite L4B roughly oval, much longer than wide, left margin projected anteriorly; afa with the anterior part smooth and short, posterior part elongated, curved towards the right, clubbed and bearing spines at the apex; loa elongate, without projections, glabrous; paa elongate, slightly flattened, curved 30° to the left, apex curved anteriorly; sclerite L4A elongate, without projections other than the pda; pda elongate, curved to the right, uniformly broad, tapering at the apex, ending in a sclerotized spine (Fig. 20). Right phallomere - roughly triangular, rounded posterior apex; right arm elongate, broad, without projections; anterior process elongate and slender; aa oval and slender; pva short, smooth, apex blunt and well sclerotized; pia short, well sclerotized (Fig. 21). Figure 19. Posterior view of the forefemur of a male Antemna rapax . Scale bar = 5mm. Figure 20. Left phallomere complex of the male genitalia of Antemna rapax . A dorsal view B ventral view. Scale bar = 1mm. Egg case: somewhat barrel-like, laterally compressed, posteroventral end encircling substrate to which it is attached, ventral surface away from, and forming an angle with the substrate. External wall russet brown in color and rough in appearance. External coating in the form of a whitish layer of frothy material. The coating extends over the emergence area and adjacent dorsal surface of egg case. Exhibiting 40-44 egg chambers whose boundaries are clearly visible as sigmoidal markings along the dorsolateral surface the egg case (external coating might conceal this feature in some specimens), and with as many emergence openings as egg cambers, aligned to form two parallel rows along the dorsal margin. Some emergence openings can be seen on a long, relatively straight, and upwardly projected, distal process (Fig. 22). Approximated measurements: length: 35; width: 15; distal process: 22. Figure 21.
