Close to the opening of the utriculus the ejaculatory ducts, already mentioned, open into the urethra by very small apertures.
The median vagina, spermatheca and ejaculatory duct are, on the other hand, formed by ectodermal inpushings.
Where the vesiculae join the ampullae of the vasa deferentia the ejaculatory ducts are formed; these are narrow and thin-walled, and run, side by side, through the prostate to open into the floor of the prostatic urethra.
