. However, there are some differences between Indian and Iranian specimens (character states of Indian specimens in parenthesis): (i) pregenital disc-pores exceptionally widespread, present around anogenital fold and medially and submedially as far forward as head, where they also occur on the submargin (numerous anterior to anal fold and extending forward medially as far as mouthparts); (ii) marginal setae blunt, some with knobbed apices (all with knobbed apices); and (iii) long marginal setae at apex of each anal lobe numbering 3 or 4 (numbering only 1). These differences are regarded as intraspecific variation.
