The bloodless animals do not agree either with the sanguinea or with each other in the fashion of the parts contributing to generation. There are four classes still left to deal with, first the crustacea,
secondly1 the cephalopoda, thirdly the insects, and fourthly the testacea. We cannot be certain about all of them, but that most of them copulate is plain; in what manner they unite must be stated later.
The crustacea copulate like the retromingent quadrupeds, fitting their tails to one another, the one supine and the other
prone2. For the flaps attached to the sides of the tail being long prevent them from uniting with the
belly3 against the back. The males have fine spermatic ducts, the females a
membranous4 uterus alongside the
intestine5, cloven on each side, in which the egg is produced.
