This isprobably the case in all the so-called higher insects (insects with com-plete metamorphosis). The position of the outer genital apertures is very various. In the Chilopoda among the Myriapoda the unpaired genital aperturelies in the penultimate body segment, in the genital segment, whoselimbs may be transformed into genital appendages. 486 COMPARATIVE ANATOMY CHAP. In the Diplopoda and Pauropoda the two genital apertures lie behindthe 2cl pair of legs, generally at the boundary between the 2d and 3dtrunk segments. In the Sym-phyla (Scolopendrella) the unpaired genital aperture lieson the 4th trunk segment between the legs of this segment. A.
