Abstract
The reproductive system of Athoracophorus is described in detail from serial sections and found to be basically similar in structure and histology to those found in species from other families of terrestrial slugs. The term "oviducal gland" is substituted for the terms "glomerate gland" and "uterus" previously used, and the reasons for this are discussed. Functional aspects of the system are examined.
