Extract

As a rule the genitalic organs of insects are mounted on standard glass slides. These slides have to be kept separate from the specimens they represent in a slide-box by themselves and for this reason there is always a chance of misplacement or loss due to eventual separation. Another point is that the all-glass slides are more easily breakable and are apt to “age” as the years go by.
