this ratio is 1.

The examination of the drawings of Silvestri given in his work of 1926 allows to state that the styli are about 2.2 times longer than the inner process of the coxite IX, but in our specimens, the styli are more than 3 times longer than coxite IX, which are clearly different proportions.
