Beautiful shot ... However, the two specimens (male at the top, female at the bottom) were not yet copulating because the end of the abdomen of the female was not bent towards the male apparatus that is at the base of the thorax. Since the male hoisted the facial mask of the female near her genitals, we could say that it is an oral intercourse... Bellissimo scatto...Comunque i due esemplari (maschio in alto, femmina in basso) non stavano ancora copulando perchè l'estremità dell'addome della femmina non era piegata verso l'apparato maschile che è alla base del torace. Poichè il maschio ha issato la maschera facciale della femmina vicino ai suoi genitali, potremmo dire che si tratta di un rapporto orale..... |

I'm afraid I was the one who interrupted them. Approaching I frightened them and flew where I photographed them. Perhaps the male was trying to regain the position. "Not even in the middle of the cool branches you are quiet," he must have thought. ^^ Temo di essere stato io ad interromperli. Avvicinandomi li ho spaventati e sono volati dove li ho fotografati. Forse il maschio cercava di riguadagnare la posizione. "Nemmeno in mezzo alle fresche frasche si sta tranquilli", avrà pensato. ^^ |

Normally even if not disturbed, the couple often flies from one side of the territory to the other, so it is easy to see him fluttering with her dangling (as in the first shot) ..... Normalmente anche se non disturbata, la coppia si invola spesso da una parte all'altra del territorio, per cui è facile vedere lui che svolazza con la lei penzolante (come nel pimo scatto) ..... |

I was just reading first how the thing works. I
quote: “ Often, at the end of fertilization, the male rises in flight continuing to hold the female by the nape with the final appendages, stimulating it – in some species of Zigoptera – to deposit the eggs. „
Who knows, maybe I had already finished, in any case I realized that they do not grab each other by the respective abdominal extremities as I believed but in another way. Stavo giusto leggendo prima come funziona la faccenda. Cito:
" Spesso, a fecondazione ultimata, il maschio si alza in volo continuando a trattenere la femmina per la nuca con le appendici finali, stimolandola – in alcune specie di Zigotteri – a depositare le uova. "
Chissà, magari avevano già concluso, in ogni caso ho capito che non si afferrano per le rispettive estremità addominali come credevo ma in altro modo. |
