Abstract
The primitive Lepidoptera discussed in this paper include the Jugate Lepidoptera, (Hepialidae and Prototheoridae), the Jugo-frenate Lepidoptera, (Mnesarchaeidae, Micropterygidae, and Eriocraniidae), and the Frenate superfamilies Tineoidea, Euceleoidea, and Bombycoidea.[†][1] The object in this discussion is to compare the male genitalia of these groups of Lepidoptera with each other and with those of nearly related orders of insects, and to ascertain from this comparison the value of these organs in gaining a more complete knowledge of the natural relationships of the insects treated.
