Left side: dorsal 4 (10) 5 (15) 5 (IS) 5 (13) 4 ventral. They are rather irregularly spaced; in general there are 8 or 10, sometimes 12, stigmata between them on the intervals between folds, but along the median dorsal vessel and endostyde 15 or more. Intestine of large diameter but forming a rather compact rounded loop within which a very large endocarp is situated. Stomach short and rounded, without conspicuous plications and with a poorly de- veloped pyloric caecum. Rectum abruptly bent forward; rather short; margin of anus with only very rudimentary yet numerous lobes. Gonads of the typical Pandocia type. Each a very small oval or rounded sac with a very short neck, containing a central mass of eggs bordered by a varying but not very large number of pyriform male glands whose ducts converge on the unattached side of the gonad toward the base of a papilla situated beside the neck of the gonad. They unite and discharge by a common orifice at the summit of this.
