longitudinal muscle-pennons rather strong, in the upper part of the reproductive region with about 13 18 

 folds. Outer part of the pennons stronger than the inner one. The outer lamellar part of the mesenteries 

 attached to the pennon rather close to the centre. Parietal muscle in the reproductive tract with few to rather 



numerous, thin and a little 



dichotomously branched 

 folds, issuing from a rather 

 thin, main lamella of the 

 mesogloea. The extension 

 of the parietal muscles on 

 the column ordinary.
