Asca quinquesetosa .— Hurlbutt, 1963: 513 ; Wood, 1966: 48 . Material examined. Six females – Cuba , coll. from soil and litter. Remarks. Asca quinquesetosa was described from the nest of a booby on Clipperton Island ( Wharton, 1941 ), and has been recorded from litter and moss in Hawaii ( Hurlbutt, 1963 ) and New Zealand ( Wood, 1966 ). It is now recorded from Cuba for the first time, from soil and litter. Our specimens agree very well with the description given by Hurlbutt (1963) . There are two setae and two circular structures on each postero-dorsal tubercle ( Figure 7 ), the epistome has two strong lateral points, and the margin between the points is slightly convex ( Figure 6 ), all dorsal setae are minutely barbed and distance J4–J4 is less than J4–Z3 ( Figures 1, 4, 5 ).
