The teeth which stand at the concave curvature of the distal end seem to be larger than the others. Female organs in normal position. Ovaries large. Oviduct funnels slippershaped. Oviduct moderately long, straight. Spermathecae: At first I could find no spermathecaz. In aseries of sections, however, I found small outgrowths of the body-wall, projecting very little i11to the coelom. Though these outgrowths had not a distinct lumen, I believe they were spermathecae in a very early state of development. There were five pairs of such organs close behind the septa 4-5--8-9, just medial from the lines of setae b. As the other sexual organs, for example the prostates and the penial setre, seem to be fully developed, the stunted condition of the spermathcczc is remarkable. Perhaps these organs remain in a rudimentary state throughout, but it is. difficult to state this with certainty with only half-mature specimens to judge by.
