<paragraph pageId="13" pageNumber="80">Females can be recognised by the relatively long entrance ducts that are initially directed anterolaterally before looping posteriorly, medially and then anteriorly before entering triangular ST II (Figs 61, 62). Males have an embolus with a triangular basal section, and distal section of the coil narrow and tapering to a sharp point (Figs 51, 63, 64).</paragraph>
