TTL - ToTal Length"; length from the tip of the anteclypus to the most distal point of the last genital segment; MCG - "MidCoxa to Genitalia" length: a length from the most anterior point of the midcoxa to the end of seventh abdominal segment; FTG - "ForeTrochanter to Genitalia" length: a length from the most posterior point of the foretrochanter to the end of seventh abdominal segment; MCG length is only measured in females, and FTG length is only measured in males.
