an accordion-like tube that contains sperm and is the site of oocyte fertilization. | spermatheca | WBbt:0005319 | |
A group of six equivalent cells forms a tightly constructed `valve` that links the posterior bulb of the pharynx to the anterior four cells of the intestine. These six cells comprise a small epithelial channel with a cuticular lining in continuity with the pharyngeal cuticle and link the lumen of the pharynx to the large lumen of the anterior intestine. | pharyngeal-intestinal valve | cardia | WBbt:0005767 |
