12. Crioceris quatuordecimpunctata

Aedeagus ( Fig. 76 View FIGURES 76 – 91 ): Median lobe stubby, apical half of median lobe enlarged; ventral edge of median orifice rounded; median foramen expanding apical half of ventral surface of median lobe. Tegmen forming clubshaped lobe in lateral view.

Male internal reproductive system ( Fig. 104 View FIGURES 104 – 118 ): Testis large, almost oval and constricted at middle, yellowish orange in color. Accessory glands elliptic or pear-like; of a pair of accessory glands, shorter gland about 1/ 3 times and longer gland half length to maximal width of apparent testis. Lateral ejaculatory duct short, a little over 1/3 times as long as maximal width of apparent testis; common ejaculatory duct slightly tapering toward base, almost equal length to maximal width of apparent testis.

Female internal reproductive system ( Figs. 119, 120 View FIGURES 119 – 138 & 139 View FIGURES 139 – 162 ): Eggs yellowish orange in color. Spermathecal organ connected to bursa copulatrix ventro-apically. Spermathecal capsule hook-shaped, tapering toward apex, yellowish brown in color; proximal part of spermathecal capsule tubular, somewhat constricted at middle in some individuals; spermathecal wall thick; spermathecal duct relatively short, 1.3–1.5 times as long as maximal length of spermathecal capsule; spermathecal gland tubular, a little longer than maximal length of spermathecal capsule.
