A New Species of Epictia (Serpentes: Leptotyphlopidae) from Central Brazil

A re‐examination of the cloacal sacs and gland of the blind snake, Leptotyphlops dulcis (Reptilia: Leptotyphlopidae)

Journal of Morphology, 1971
AbstractThe cloacal sacs of Leptotyphlops dulcis are nonglandular, posterior evaginations of the cloaca. The median cloacal gland is tubuloalveolar. Similar unpaired cloacal glands as well as paired sacs are noted in certain colubrid snakes. Terminology applied to these cloacal derivatives is discussed, and a standardization of names is provided.
