There is a distinct endo-style on the ventral edge of the branchial sac and a peripharyngealband surrounding its anterior end, but there is no representativeof the dorsal lamina on its dorsal edge. The cesopnagus com-mences rather on the ventral edge of the posterior end of thebranchial sac, and nms backwards to open into the stomach, whichis followed by a curved intestine opening into the peribranchialcavity. The alimentary canal as a whole is to the right of themiddlo line. The hermaphrodite reproductive organs are to theleft of the middle line alongside the alimentary canal. They open into the peribranchial cavity. The ovary is nearly spherical, whilethe testis is elongated, and may be continued anteriorly for a longdistance.
