Hermaphroditic duct

The hermaphroditic duct is an anatomical structure in the reproductive system of many hermaphroditic gastropod mollusks, particularly among pulmonates and opisthobranchs. It serves as a conduit for gametes, transporting both sperm and ova from the gonad, commonly referred to as the ovotestis, to different regions of the reproductive tract.
