The oral siphon is conical with six very short triangular lobes, while the atrial siphon is small, circular and opens at the level of the first or second row of stigmata. The atrial languet is long, narrow and pointed, projecting from the top edge of the atrial opening. Thorax musculature comprises 10 delicate longitudinal fibers extending to the end of the post-abdomen. The 15 oral tentacles are all very short, arranged in a single circle. The pharynx has eight or nine rows of stigmata, each with 10?12 stigmata on each side. The dorsal lamina is subdivided into short triangular languets to the left of the dorsal axis. The esophagus is flattened laterally. The stomach is short, wide and has 1314 external longitudinal folds, some of which may be discontinuous. The duodenum is narrow, as long as the stomach, followed by a curved post-stomach at the end of the intestinal loop. The intestine is narrow and starts with long and narrow rectal caeca. The anus is smooth and opens at the level of the fifth or sixth row of stigmata (
