The body of the living animal is predominantly transparent, with viscera and gonads visible through the mantle and foot.

The cerata are generally transparent with the exception of a slight blue color near the tips followed by yellow at the terminus of each ceras. They are cylindrical and contain extensively undulating and undivided digestive tissue. The digestive gland within each ceras is a cream-yellow color near the dorsum, turns slightly pink just before the blue portion of the ceras, and turns cream-yellow again at the tip of the ceras. The cerata contain distinctive but nonfunctional cnidosacs at the distal ends. The longest and widest cerata are near the median region of the dorsum, with newly developing cerata at the edge of the mantle. The ceratal arrangement consists of arches and rows, with anteriormost groups forming arches and posteriormost groups forming rows (

The oviduct joins a nodulose receptaculum seminis, and a second branch extends from the base of the receptaculum to join the mucous gland near the albumen gland. The second branch of the ampulla connects to the vas deferens with the proximal portion being prostatic. The moderately sized prostate is slightly convoluted in two specimens (
