The shape of Mehli's gland is almost round or shell shaped and is attached with the ootype through certain fatty members.[2] EtymologyIt was so named as it was first discovered by German physician Karl Friedrich Eduard Mehlis (1796–1832).[2] FunctionAs a part of female reproductive organ it has an important role in guiding the ova out towards the passage ending in the uterus of flat worms. Thus, its secretion lubricates the passage of uterus through which ova move.[2] Possibly playing a part in eggshell formation.[2] See also
