The female system is located posterior to the male system, with a horseshoeshaped Lang’s vesicle. The female duct narrows before opening in the common genital atrium (Figs, 5A, 6A), from here the female apparatus extends posteriorly in form of the vagina externa which ascends, with a slope parallel to the posterior branch of the male atrium, while becomes wider before it turning into the vagina media, which is surrounded by eosinophilic cement glands, the vagina media ascends in the form of a dorso-anteriorly curve to form vagina interna. The vagina interna after a short distance, with a descending gentle slope receives the common oviduct, it then continues as the duct of Lang’s vesicle which descends ventrally, entering into the Lang's vesicle (
