Cuticle coarsely annulated, annuli -2.4–3.4 µm -wide at midbody and 2.2–3.0 µm wide in pharyngeal region. Cuticle tessellated: longitudinal striae giving it a tiled appearance, each block often with a central indentation as seen under SEM. Anteriorly, 9–10 first annuli, the longitudinal striation is irregular and blocks rounded, followed by a more regular striation creating rectangular blocks, 16 rows of blocks at midbody (excluding lateral field). Lateral field consisting of two wings separated by a broad groove, appearing as four incisures under LM, occupying about 20–25% of body diameter, extending almost to tail terminus in females and to midtail papillae in males, two outer incisures extend to tail terminus in males. Lip region slightly offset, carrying 6 + 4 papillae and two round amphids. Three pairs of asymmetrical lips, one dorsal and two ventrolateral. Pairs of lips separated by U-shaped primary axils without guarding processes. Each pair with a shallow incisure demarcating a secondary axil. Each lip asymmetrically rectangular with a smooth margin, without any tines. Three labial probolae, 8.0– -9.5 µm -high, bifurcated at half of their length, prongs bent toward one another apically (“snake-tongue”-shaped). Stoma somewhat longer than lip region diameter. Stomatal parts not clearly discernible. Cheilorhabdia bacilliform in lateromedian view; metastegostom with a dorsal denticle. Pharynx cephaloboid. Pharyngeal corpus cylindrical; isthmus narrow, often folded, and not clearly demarcated from corpus; bulb oval, with valves. Nerve ring at level of metacorpus to metacorpus-isthmus junction. Excretory pore and deirids at level of metacorpus-isthmus junction to isthmus. - - -Female - -Reproductive system monodelphic, prodelphic, in dextral position in relation to intestine.

- - - - -Remarks - - - -The population collected from sand in the Kelso Dunes area, Mojave Desert, California and described here, agrees in many respects with the -type -specimens of - -Stegelleta incisa - -described from Utah by -Thorne (1937) -and a bisexual population described from -Italy -by -Orselli & Vinciguerra (2002) -under the name - -S. ophioglossa - -. One major difference is the presence of a cuticular flap on the anterior vulval lip directed posteriad and partly covering the vulval opening, as seen by SEM in the present specimens. This feature is not easily seen with light microscopy, which probably explains why it was not mentioned by -Thorne (1937) -in his original description. -Orselli & Vinciguerra (2002) -also did not mention or illustrate it in their specimens, presumably for the same reason. - - - - \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/03/DC/87/03DC879A012540037F35FE2DFDAFFBA0.xml b/data/03/DC/87/03DC879A012540037F35FE2DFDAFFBA0.xml deleted file mode 100644 index c54f1ef6cb2..00000000000 --- a/data/03/DC/87/03DC879A012540037F35FE2DFDAFFBA0.xml +++ /dev/null @@ -1,178 +0,0 @@ - - - -Descriptions of species of Stegelleta Thorne, 1938 (Nematoda, Rhabditida, Cephalobidae) from California, New Zealand and Senegal, and a revision of the genus - - - -Author - -Boström, Sven -528300CC-D0F0-4097-9631-6C5F75922799 -Department of Zoology, Swedish Museum of Natural History, Box 50007, SE- 104 05 Stockholm, Sweden & Email: sven. bostrom @ nrm. se (corresponding author) & urn: lsid: zoobank. org: author: 528300 CC-D 0 F 0 - 4097 - 9631 - 6 C 5 F 75922799 -sven.bostrom@nrm.se - - - -Author - -Holovachov, Oleksandr -89D30ED8-CFD2-42EF-B962-30A13F97D203 -Department of Zoology, Swedish Museum of Natural History, Box 50007, SE- 104 05 Stockholm, Sweden & Email: oleksandr. holovachov @ nrm. se & urn: lsid: zoobank. org: author: 89 D 30 ED 8 - CFD 2 - 42 EF-B 962 - 30 A 13 F 97 D 203 -oleksandr.holovachov@nrm.se - -text - - -European Journal of Taxonomy - - -2014 - -2014-06-16 - - -87 - - -1 -19 - - - -journal article -22008 -10.5852/ejt.2014.87 -8ba6e51d-e141-47f2-9929-73127f823066 -2118-9773 -3835107 -691BA51C-6882-4437-A037-0E8861DCBF17 - - - - - -Genus - -Stegelleta -Thorne, 1938 - - - - - - - - - -Stegella -Thorne, 1937: 4 - - -[junior homonym of - -Stegella -Stechow, 1919 - -]. - - - - - - -Stegelleta -Thorne, 1938: 64–65 - - -. - - - - - - - -Type -species - - - - - -Stegella incisa -Thorne, 1937 - -. - - - - -Diagnosis -(emended after - -Holovachov -et al. -2009 - -) - -Cuticle annulated, without distinctly annulated internal layer; annuli with longitudinal incisures (tessellated). Lateral field with two or four wings (appearing as three, four or five incisures); ending at tail terminus in females and in males. Lip region weakly offset, consisting of six globular lips arranged in three pairs: one dorsal and two subventral. Pairs of lips separated by primary axils; guarding processes absent; secondary axils undeveloped. Cephalic probolae absent or in the shape of one acute tine extending along the primary axil occurring only on lateral lips or on all six lips. Labial probolae elongate-conoid with broad basis, bifurcated about halfway forming two slender prongs, in some species further bifurcated apically. Six labial and four cephalic papilliform sensilla arranged in a cephaloboid manner. Amphidial aperture slit-shaped, located on lateral lips. Stoma divided into cheilo-, gymno- and stegostom: cheilostom barrel-shaped with strongly sclerotized bacilliform cheilorhabdia; gymnostom weakly developed, as wide as stegostom, with weak gymnorhabdia; stegostom consists of a funnel-shaped prostegostom and variably shaped mesostego-, metastego- and telostegostom parts. Metastegostom denticle present. Pharynx cephaloboid: pharyngeal procorpus and metacorpus cylindrical, lining of procorpus and metacorpus are of same thickness; isthmus narrower than metacorpus; basal pharyngeal bulb oval, with strongly developed valves. Nerve ring encircling posterior part of metacorpus or anterior part of isthmus. Excretory pore opens at level of nerve ring, at posterior part of metacorpus or anterior part of isthmus. Deirids present. Female reproductive system cephaloboid; posterior part of ovary straight; spermatheca present; postvulval uterine sac present; vagina straight; vulva flat, vulval flap absent or present. Male reproductive system cephaloboid; spicules cephaloboid with manubrium and corpus of approximately equal width; gubernaculum plate-like or wedge-shaped; cornua crurum present.

This is a somewhat intermediate stage between + +S. incisa + +, which has no tines, and + +S. arenaria + +, in which each lip has one acute tine extending along the primary axil. Another difference is the absence of a cuticular flap on the anterior vulval lip, as seen by SEM in the specimens of + +S. incisa + +from California. + + + + +Fig. 3. + +Stegelleta laterocornuta + +sp. nov. +, SEM micrographs. +A +.

Genital papillae arranged as follows: two pairs subventral precloacal (at -4–6 µm -and at -23–28 µm -anterior to cloaca), one pair subventral adcloacal, a single midventral papilla on anterior cloacal lip; two pairs (one ventrosublateral and one lateral) at midtail; three pairs (one lateral, one subventral and one dorsosublateral) closer to tail terminus. Phasmids located at about two-fifths to half of tail length. - - - - -Remarks - - -The population of - -Stegelleta laterocornuta - -sp. nov. -from -New Zealand -described here agrees in many respects with the descriptions of - -S. incisa - -. One major difference is the presence of a long, slender and acute tine extending along the primary axil on the lateral lips. This is a somewhat intermediate stage between - -S. incisa - -, which has no tines, and - -S. arenaria - -, in which each lip has one acute tine extending along the primary axil. Another difference is the absence of a cuticular flap on the anterior vulval lip, as seen by SEM in the specimens of - -S. incisa - -from California. - - - - \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/data/03/DC/87/03DC879A013740117DEBFC7EFAFBFAF0.xml b/data/03/DC/87/03DC879A013740117DEBFC7EFAFBFAF0.xml deleted file mode 100644 index 209bea91672..00000000000 --- a/data/03/DC/87/03DC879A013740117DEBFC7EFAFBFAF0.xml +++ /dev/null @@ -1,160 +0,0 @@ - - - -Descriptions of species of Stegelleta Thorne, 1938 (Nematoda, Rhabditida, Cephalobidae) from California, New Zealand and Senegal, and a revision of the genus - - - -Author - -Boström, Sven -528300CC-D0F0-4097-9631-6C5F75922799 -Department of Zoology, Swedish Museum of Natural History, Box 50007, SE- 104 05 Stockholm, Sweden & Email: sven. bostrom @ nrm. se (corresponding author) & urn: lsid: zoobank. org: author: 528300 CC-D 0 F 0 - 4097 - 9631 - 6 C 5 F 75922799 -sven.bostrom@nrm.se - - - -Author - -Holovachov, Oleksandr -89D30ED8-CFD2-42EF-B962-30A13F97D203 -Department of Zoology, Swedish Museum of Natural History, Box 50007, SE- 104 05 Stockholm, Sweden & Email: oleksandr. holovachov @ nrm. se & urn: lsid: zoobank. org: author: 89 D 30 ED 8 - CFD 2 - 42 EF-B 962 - 30 A 13 F 97 D 203 -oleksandr.holovachov@nrm.se - -text - - -European Journal of Taxonomy - - -2014 - -2014-06-16 - - -87 - - -1 -19 - - - -journal article -22008 -10.5852/ejt.2014.87 -8ba6e51d-e141-47f2-9929-73127f823066 -2118-9773 -3835107 -691BA51C-6882-4437-A037-0E8861DCBF17 - - - - - - -Key to -species - - - - - - - - - -1.
