Among butterflies of the Erebia genus, the spines and teeth on the male's genitalic valves do not seem to do anything practical, like gripping, but they do brush against the female's abdomen during copulation.

The genus Parapodisma comprises 11 species (50% of the Japanese podismine species) including two subspecies in Japan, and shows a variety of morphology such as body colors, genitalic characters and forewings, which has sometimes confounded their taxonomic status (Ito 2015).

Prior to copulation, the receptive female lifted her abdomen and male raised his wings vertically above his body and turned as to make genitalic contact (Fig.

Despite the large improvement with the discovery of male genitalic morphology as species specific characters (Nagarkatti and Nagaraja, 1968, 1971), the identification of these tiny insects remains difficult and requires specialized skills (Pinto and Stouthamer, 1994).
