Help? Nidamental Gland or Ovary or Something Else?

[Thony]

i thought it was a systemic heart.. is it located near the end of the NG? Im so confused about the structure and where I can find it xD

The pink is not the systemic heart (squid don't have red blood!)it's often a beige colour, the systemic heart should be posterior to the digestive gland (called the liver in one of the diagrams), between it and the reproductive organs.
