slender conical tentacles at the anterior end, with eyes between the 

 bases and in the basal halves of the tentacles. Two groups of cere- 

 bral eyes lie on each side and connect across the anterior margin of 

 the brain. The median stem of the enteron connects with three pairs 

 of lateral branches. At its posterior end there is an anus. The uteri 

 lie lateral to the median enteron, and outside (lateral to) them are 

 two slender ducts, which connect a glandular organ at the anterior 

 end of the uteri with the anus. Lateral to these ducts are the coiled 

 vasa deferentia, which fuse behind the anus and extend beyond as 

 a short loop.
