Andiodrilus bogotaensis, a native species to the paramos around Bogotá was observed, by means of morpho-histologic studies, to lack spermateca. It was also observed that the Seminal vesicules of the large majority of the specimens studied are inhabited by the parasite Monocystis lumbrici, which is reported for the first time in Colombia for A. bogotaensis.
