The last heart is apparently in xiii. 
The excretory system is micronephridial; the very large tufts 
in segment v, by the side of the anterior end of the gizzard, are a 
conspicuous feature. 
Testes and funnels are free in x and xi. Seminal vesicles are 
present in ix and xii. 
The prostates, of the Pheretima-type, are relatively large, occu- 
pying segments xviii to xxi. They are most bulky in xviii and xix, 
thinner and dorsally situated in xx and xxi. The duct is rela- 
tively stout and sharply curved 
The ovaries and their funnels are in segment xiii; the ovi- 
ducts unite before debouching externally. 
The spermathecae, in segments villi and ix, have an ovoid 
ampulla of relatively considerable size. The duct is not sharply 
demarcated; it is as long as and nearly half as thick as the am- 
pulla, and has a slightly curved course, forwards or forwards and 
then downwards to the exterior. The single diverticulum is club- 
shaped; it originates from the upper end of the duct just below 
the ampulla; it is about half as broad as the ampulla, and reaches 
dorsalwards nearly as far as the latter.
