The head is truncated, with slightly rounded lateral edges of the margin and a very small protrusion in the midline. After the level of the copulatory apparatus, the body tapers to a pointed tail. The eyes (eye cup diameter 38 µm in V.Pl. 6869.3 and 46 µm in V.Pl. 6869.2 (in sections)) are set in pigment-free patches, which are located far from the frontal margin and lie close together at a distance of 1/7th to 1/ 9th of the width of the head in living specimens.

The vasa deferentia form very large spermiducal vesicles at the level of the pharynx. In the proximity of the penis papilla, one of the vasa deferentia curves dorsally, recurves and narrows before it penetrates the posterolateral wall of the penis bulb. The other vas deferens does not form a loop and enters the penis bulb through its base. Subsequently, it opens into the proximal, anterior section of a small, rounded intrabulbar cavity (10B). The openings of the vasa deferentia into this intrabulbar cavity are located on opposite sides. The wide and straight ejaculatory duct is lined with nucleated epithelium and surrounded by a thin layer of circular muscle fibres, followed by a layer of longitudinal fibres. The ejaculatory duct runs centrally through the penis papilla and receives two

stands apart from its congeners, due to the different course of the vasa deferentia, in which only one sperm duct markedly loops before penetrating the penis bulb. However, in many species the course of the vasa deferentia has only been cursorily studied or not studied at all. Therefore, we will concentrate on other aspects of its morphology.
