Clitellum

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

In earthworms and some other annelids, the Clitellum is a thickened glandular section of the body wall that secretes a viscid sac in which the eggs are deposited. Once the eggs have been deposited in the sac, the clitellum slides off of the earthworm's (annelid's) body.
