Type material studied: Lectotype CeNak V428 and paralectotypes CeNak V428 2, 5–17, in alcohol. Loc. South Georgia Island . Type locality: South Georgia Island , near the German station 1882–1883, 54.533 S , 36.017 W , at low water mark, from slate debris, algal weeds and sponge canals, Febuary 1883 . Additions to Michaelsen’s original description and recent redescriptions of types : Paired clusters of perikarya on prostomial nerves and at ventral ends of circumoesophageal connectives. Ventral nerve cord with small subbuccal bulb ( Fig. 9D ); see Marionina discussion above. Developing male cells enveloped in testis sac, distally frayed, releasing free-floating cysts, parts of which extend into X and XII in seminal vesicle. Remarks: This species was thoroughly redescribed by Rota et al. (2008) and Schmelz & Collado (2008) , but neither described the subbuccal bulb (which we could not make out in most specimens) and neither considered the male cells enveloped in a testis sac but both mention the large seminal vesicle.
