as it is based on males alone, presents itself as a cohesive group with synapomorphies and a well-defined morphological pattern. The presence of fissures may be listed as a set of characters, given the number of fissures in the ventral region, usually close to the apodemes. We have carefully observed these fissures under various microscopic techniques (DIC, Phase contrast, Confocal, LT-SEM). Through these, it is clearly demonstrated that, although adjacent, these fissures are morphologically independent of the associated apodeme, positioned at different levels and in some cases overlapping the apodema. Another apomorphy is the pair of ridges flanking the tegula, which might be homoplastic with a similar structure present in
