- •
The reproductive system of Dorippe sinica consists of two separated structures.
- •
Sperm is stored in a segmental seminal receptacle exclusively lined by cuticle.
- •
The seminal receptacle is connected to the genital opening via a concave vagina.
- •
The oviduct is connected directly to the vulva and lined by glandular epithelium.
- •
Fertilization can take place at the genital opening at the earliest.
