The oviducts are saccular with glandular walls; independently of them two pairs of glands open to the exterior, the accessory glands and the large nidamental glands. The vas deferens (fig. 302) is more complicated. It has swellings known as seminal vesicle, prostate, and Needham's sac, in which tlie spermatophores are stored. These have such a complicated Fig. :(93.—Spermatophore of Sepia. (From Hatschek, after ]\Iilne Edwards.)
