The sperm ducts run amongst the fibers of the layer of longitudinal parenchymal muscle located dorsally to the ventral nerve cords. The distribution of muscle fibers around the duct is irregular, being more abundant on the dorsal than on the ventral side. The sperm ducts run posteriorly to about 4/5th of the distance between the anterior and posterior end of the seminal vesicle and then rather abruptly turn antero-dorsally and run towards the seminal vesicle at an angle of approximately 45 degrees (

Having reached about the anterior third of the vesicle, the ducts start to run parallel to the seminal vesicle and the body surfaces and after a short while start approaching the most antero-ventral portion of the seminal vesicle, meanwhile decreasing in diameter. Hereafter each duct penetrates the strong coat of muscles surrounding the seminal vesicle, to open separately into the most proximal section of its lumen (

The elongated cylindrical seminal vesicle runs more or less paralell to the body surface, with only its anterior, proximal end being curved towards the vental body surface. It is surrounded by a very strong coat of circular muscles. Longitudinal muscles lie interspersed in the zone of circular muscles. The lumen of the seminal vesicle is rather broad and gradually narrows to become the ejaculatory duct. The latter stays rather broad and opens at the tip of the penis papilla (

the bursal canal runs for about 200µm into antero-ventral direction to open into the atrium, about 420µm dorsally to the ventral surface (this section of the bursal canal corresponds to the so-called canalis anonymus). From the point of the opening of the oviducts, the bursal canal (this part corresponding to Beauchamp's canal) rises slightly into antero-dorsal direction for about 200µm, thereafter for a short distance curving into dorsal direction and then following its course more or less parallel to the ventral body surface for about 350µm. Hereafter it curves sharply into dorsal direction and after about 150µm opens into the vaginal duct. The latter opens, 120µm dorsally from the point of fusion with the bursal canal, through the ventral wall of the copulatory bursa; the lining epithelium of the vaginal duct extends for a short distance into the bursa (
