Body wall thin; cuticle approximately 0.5 µm thick; layer of circular muscles very thin. Septa 5/610/11 thickened, funnelshaped. No pharyngeal pad distinguishable. Neither a gizzard, nor any apparent distinction between oesophagus and intestine present. Ciliated epithelium of intestine ending in clitellar region. Periintestinal blood sinus occurring from XII backwards. Holonephridia, apparently avesiculate, beginning in XII or XIII; initially poorly developed and acquiring normal size only behind clitellum. The circulatory apparatus exceptionally well developed. Dorsal and ventral vessels run the whole length of the worm and have very large diameters, only slightly less than that of the intestine. Seven pairs of long commissural vessels in VXI, wound in balls whose size increases backwards; each ball covered with chloragocytes. A pair of large vessels originates in VII from the periintestinal blood sinus, and from XII to XVI run along the sperm sacs. Many lesser vessels seen everywhere, but no capillaries. Testes anterior in XI, facing the large seminiferous funnels, covered with sperm and bulging into segment XII. Sperm ducts coiled in XII in their proximal course, then running laterally within the body wall till XVII where they emerge again in the coelomic cavity, become thicker, and run forwards till XIV, where they form the atria. Atria possess thick muscular walls and appear as shining, bent, spindles which open in the middle of XIV, behind the penial setae; atria (which correspond to the euprostates of

) with a thin external coating of nonglandular cells. Two long sperm sacs begin from septum 11/12 and run till XX, parallel to the egg sacs and to the posterior course of vasa deferentia. Ovaries located in the ventral forepart of XIII; two long cylindrical egg sacs, apparently beginning in XVII, extending as far back as XXXV; possessing thick glandular walls and containing up to a dozen large ripe eggs (

530 µm wide) between XXVXXXV. Two large, convoluted spermathecae in VII; consisting of a short, partly ciliated duct and elongate ampulla; the ectal section of the latter containing the bulk of spermatozoa, whereas the ental section is filled with a hyaline secretion. The spermathecal length exceeds the body diameter and possibly the length of penial setae. It can be inferred that during copulation the suckershaped genital papillae in XIV help to fasten the two partners together, while at the same time the penial grooved setae are introduced into the spermathecae for sperm transfer.
