Contraction during preservation has telescoped the apical penis and forced it and its fibromuscular matrix out of the penis sheath. Fig. 4 Callistoplepa shuttleworthi, penis sheath, permanently partially evaginated penis, and pilaster (containing the basal vas deferens) are shown in frontal plane and in dorsal view (UUZM). Fig. 5 Same, in a slightly tangential sagittal plane. Fig. 6 Same, in ventral view with penis sheath cut longitudinally and spread laterally to show the penis within. Fig. 7 Same, with penis cut longitudinally and spread laterally to expose the pilaster within. Penis sheath not shown. Fig. 8 Same, with pilaster cut and spread to reveal the basal vas deferens opening dorsally into the lumen of the penis. The dense fibromuscular webbing at the junction of the basal vas deferens and penis has been removed for Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Natural History Museum (London).
