金龟科(Pramidellidae)类似结构和生活方式的腹足软体动物,每一种都是靠吸食特定宿主的血液生活的体外寄生虫。嘴巴放在可伸缩的长鼻子顶端的吸盘上。口腔包含一个中空的口针[长冲刺],改良的颌骨[长冲刺]环绕着正中的唾液管,在其内端形成一个肌肉泵。没有防护罩。甲锥虫与后中柱的一致之处在于:胃是消化腺的导管排入的空间,肠道较短;神经系统集中且中性;性腺两性,连接两性导管的大腺体为卵块提供外层保护;开放的精子沟从共同生殖器孔通向可内陷的阴茎,精子囊附着在阴茎鞘上并在每次交配前充满;角质层有左侧壳。阴茎穿过神经环腹侧到达食道,这个位置可能与内向者的发育有关。
The family Pyramidellidae contains spp. of gastropod mollusks of similar structure and mode of life, each an ectoparasite living by sucking the blood of a particular host. The mouth lies on a sucker at the apex of a long retractible proboscis. The buccal cavity contains a hollow stylet[long dash]the modified jaw[long dash]surrounding the median salivary duct, and at its inner end forms a muscular pump. No radula is present. The pyra-midellids agree with the opisthobranchs in that the stomach is a space into which the ducts of the digestive gland discharge, and the intestine is short; the nervous system is concentrated and euthyneurous; the gonad is hermaphroditic and large glands attached to the hermaphroditic duct provide the outer protective covering of the egg mass; an open seminal groove leads from the common genital aperture to an invaginable penis, and a sperm sac is attached to the penial sheath and filled before each copulation; the veliger has a sinistral shell. The penis passes through the nerve ring ventral to the esophagus[long dash]a position perhaps associated with the development of the introvert.
