Spermatophores are sperm-containing sacs secreted by male
insects to aid in sperm transfer. They have been recorded from
a number of insect orders. [In the case of] Macleay's Spectre Extatosoma tiaratum Macleay, the
female is occasionally to be seen after mating with a conspicuous cream
coloured [spermatophore].
