Penis cylindrical, basal end comparatively narrow, swollen at the middle and proximal portions cylindrical. Epiphallus basally swollen and the proximal portion tapering. The penial retractor muscle far apart from the flagellum. Gametolytic sac balloon-like, separated from the gametolytic duct by a narrow neck. A mature dissected specimen contained 4-5 gelatinous eggs in the spermoviduct. Another mature specimen contained a spermatophore in the gametolytic sac. This is the first observation of a glessuline spermatophore (Fig. 6B). Vagina short, nearly half the length of the penis. Albumen gland elongate and yellowish; hermaphroditic duct thinner than the albumen gland in the observed specimens.</paragraph>
