Resumo: Studies of comparative and non comparative morphology of the reproductive system of vertebrates emphasize the morphofunctional aspects of the gonads or other organs of internal genitalia, mainly in females. However, few studies deal about the morphological adaptations and modifications of the male copulatory organ, whose main function is transfer and direct the sperm through the female reproductive tract. Thus, this review systematizes and compares morphology of copulatory organs, with special focus on vertebrates, as well as associates these structures under a phylogenetic perspective, and where possible highlights mainly male reproductive strategies with a view to reproductive success.Keywords: Reproduction; comparative morphology; copulation; sexual selection.
