The transition from penis to epiphallus is marked by a constriction. The epiphallus is proximally swollen but otherwise cylindrical. Internally, the cylindrical portion bears five to seven straight thin folds or lamellae; it is separated from the swollen part by a small structure formed by the merging folds. This structure, of probable glandular function, was sometimes covered with a hard translucent cover. The swollen part has some internal longitudinal folds with lateral branches, and continues in a cylindrical tubule inside the verge. This tubule also bears internal longitudinal folds, which are more voluminous and have more branches and anastomoses (

) than those in the swollen part. The flagellum, longer than the epiphallus, is cylindrical and has only one internal longitudinal fold. The epiphallusflagellum transition is marked by the insertion of the vas deferens and a slight reduction of the diameter towards the flagellum.
