is a small animal of a vivid yellow ground colour. Thin red lines are found in various positions: in three of the four investigated animals red lines were found along the outer edge of the head shield, at the apical tip of the dorsal ridge of the siphon, as well as along the sides of the siphonal crest and at the tip of the flagellum (

). The siphonal crest is elongate and bears a prominent median dorsal ridge which extends in front of the head shield when erect. The body is almost ovoid in shape and bears a conical shaped flagellum at the right side. The foot forms an elongate but broad tapering tail and bears large winglike lateral parapodia. These are folded over the top of the visceral hump but do not meet each other, even when the animal is at rest. The parapodia are free moving thus enabling the animal to actively swim using rapid flapping motions. A small gill composed of five simple plicae is found on the right side of the body underneath the overlapping mantle. In the preserved animals glandular follicles are visible shimmering through the translucent epithelium of the parapodia. A large white foot gland is also visible at the posterior end of the foot.

The epithelium lining the intestine is simple and ciliated throughout its entire length. In its proximal region the intestine forms a tube with a small lumen, but the lumen widens further distally before it narrows again just prior to the anus. The anus is located just above the gill, posterior to the genital opening and the nephroporus. It is composed of a folded epithelium studded with long cilia. Large subepidermal glandular cells are present surrounding the anal opening. The glandular cells contain heterogeneous acidophilic secretions and small basal nuclei.</paragraph>

possesses the typical monaulic reproductive system found in most gastropterids. The gonad is located in the hind part of the body lying on the dorsal right side of the digestive gland. Male and female gametes are stored in separate follicles. The sperm follicles are surrounded by the oocyte follicles. The latter contain yolk granules as well as large nuclei. The sperm follicles contain both immature spermatogonia as well as mature sperm with their heads directed to the epithelial lining of the follicle. Some nursing cells can also be found.

. The small internally ciliated hermaphroditic duct leaves the gonad well to the posterior and runs along the ventral side of the digestive gland anteriorly where it leads to the small tubular ampulla. The ampulla which is lined by a ciliated pavement epithelium contains masses of undirected sperm. It runs along the ventral side of the digestive gland for a short distance then curves to the anterior left side and leads dorsally where it enters the junction of the nidamental glands and the spermoviduct. The nidamental glands are composed of three different parts. The proximal albumen gland consists of highly cylindrical cells filled with large round to elliptically shaped basophilic secretory granules. Nuclei can be found basally in the glandular cells. Alternating with the glandular cells are ciliated supporting cells. The albumen gland shows a continuous transition into the following membrane gland. The latter is composed of a glandular epithelium consisting of cylindrical cells containing heterogenous masses of acidophilic mucus. The cilia of the supporting cells are longer in this glandular part than in the albumen gland. At the distal part of the nidamental glands a mucous gland is located. It forms the largest part of the glandular mass and consists of a highly cylindrical epithelium. The glandular cells contain dense masses of acidophilic mucus. Nuclei could not be distinguished in the glandular cells, neither could supporting cells. The nidamental glands discharge into the distal spermoviduct which leads to the common genital aperture.

At the proximal end close to the transition to the penial bulb and penial duct the prostatic epithelial lining is composed of cylindrical cells which apically contain large nonstaining vacuoles; medially small basophilic secretory droplets are found and the nuclei are located basally. The glandular cells are ciliated. Further distally the glandular cells become more cylindrical, the apical vacuoles partly contain dense basophilic secretions and the medial small secretory droplets become much more prominent. In the most distal part of the prostate no large secretory vacuoles are found but the glandular cells are completely filled with smaller basophilic secretory droplets. The cilia in this part of the prostate are very short.
