Ovary simple sac; coiled oviduct smooth, firm, not embedded in connective tissue, initially inverted U­shaped, usually straight distal to seminal receptacle (one species with bend), usually reaching posterior end of bursa (sometimes a little more or less) then sharply bent to run anteriorly; Seminal receptacle ovoid to pyriform, with short duct, opening to oviduct, located opposite middle to ventral part of left side of bursa copulatrix. Bursa copulatrix rather large, ovoid to pyriform, posterior to albumen gland except for small overlap on right side, either just behind posterior pallial wall or extending in front of it; bursal duct arises from anterior or ventroanterior wall, simple to undulating, joins oviduct dorsally at posterior pallial wall or in front of it as far anterior as junction of albumen and capsule glands. Common duct straight. Albumen gland ½ or more within pallial roof, shorter to longer than capsule gland. Capsule gland compressed­oval in section, divided into three glandular zones, short anterior and posterior translucent white zones and long yellowish to orange middle zone; anterior end blunt to steeply tapering; genital opening short, terminal to slightly anterior of capsule gland. Ventral channel extended into weakly to moderately developed vestibule anteriorly. No brood pouch.
