Summary

Description
Afrikaans: Stewige, enkele maar saamgestelde (d.w.s. etlike borselhaartjies) frenulum van 'n pylstertmot, Nephele comma, soos sigbaar as die voorvlerk weggetrek word. Dit groei uit 'n gesklerotiseerde basis aan die humerale hoek van die agtervlerk, en pas agter 'n vliesige haak, die sg. retinaculum, aan die onderkant van die voorvlerk. By pylstertmotte het die wyfies drie (eerder as een, groepe) borselhaartjies, wat soortgelyk aan die agtervlerk geheg is.
English: Stout, single but composite (i.e. fusion of several bristles) frenulum of a male hawkmoth, Nephele comma, as visible when the fore wing is pulled back. It arises from a sclerotized base at the humeral angle of the hind wing, and fits behind a membraneous hook, called the retinaculum, on the ventral side of the fore wing. In hawk moths, the females have three (rather than one, groups of) bristles, but these are also attached to a sclerotized frenulum base as in males.[1][2][3]
