The perivisceral coelom of the sea cucumber Parastichopus californicus is connected to the lumen of the hindgut by as many as 200 short transrectal ducts. Each duct is lined by a pseudostratified epithelium composed of: (i) monociliated, tonofilament-containing cells, (ii) myoepithelial cells, (iii) bundles of neurites, and (iv) granule-containing cells. In most places the lumen of each duct is lined by the monociliated, tonofilament-containing cells.
