The ventral gonostyle/volsella complex-penisvalval
muscle that arises ventromedially from the gonostyle/volsella complex, inserts on the

Relationships / properties:
The proximoventral gonostyle/volsella complex-penisvalval muscle is part of the metasoma. The proximoventral gonostyle/volsella complex-penisvalval muscle is part of the multi-cellular organism.
When present, the proximoventral gonostyle/volsella complex-penisvalval muscle is attached to the cuticle. When present, the proximoventral gonostyle/volsella complex-penisvalval muscle is attached to the gonostipes. When present, the proximoventral gonostyle/volsella complex-penisvalval muscle is attached to the gonostyle/volsella complex. When present, the proximoventral gonostyle/volsella complex-penisvalval muscle is attached to the penisvalva.

The male genitalia muscle that arises from the apex gonostipitis (just ventrally of the site of origin of the distoventral gonostipo-penisvalval muscle) and inserts on the distal apex of the penisvalva (valvura).
