The right cercus of males rarely is modified as itapparently has limited, or no function, in claspingthe female and, in many cases, at least the basal seg-ment is partially or entirely desclerotized. In veryfew species, however, the inner face of the basal seg-ment is sclerotic and even more rarely distally in-wardly lobed. Such lobes never are echinulate. Inthe Australian family Australembiidae the basal seg-ment always is globular. There are probably many other factors andstructures prolonging c
