The epidermis is a ciliated epithelium, with cuboidal cells to 8 um high in section over most of the animal and containing 35 basophilic rhabdites per cell. Longitudinal, circular and possible diagonal muscle fibres present below epidermis. Anteriorly, paired kidneyshaped eyes (19 µm long) of numerous black pigment spots cover a bilobed brain (

). Paired vitellaria present as two longitudinal bands beginning lateral to esophagus and extending to caudal end. Vitellaria consist of numerous fingerlike processes (to 96 µm long) and often extend dorsally over intestine. Caudally, short vitelline ducts connect to a common genital atrium. Extending anteriorly from the genital atrium is a solitary, elongate ovary often located on the left side of the body. Distally the ovary leads into a short oviduct before expanding into an oval receptaculum seminis often containing sperm. A small, muscular bursa copulatrix (55 µm long) with a short distal tube, also muscular, leading to the genital atrium was located at the body midline. In several specimens the bursa was obscured by parenchymal pigments. The region around the genital atrium is highly glandular with numerous digitiform glands (stains intensely with aniline blue) that often conceal the common gonopore and all ducts leading to it. Posterior to the genital pore is a thinwalled uterus containing an egg up to 200 µm long. Eggs are bright orange and highly sculptured. In one specimen (egg size 192 µm long and 128 µm wide) the dorsal sculpturing (observed from the dorsal side of the animal) consisted of 15 raised rows of numerous small spheres 1.6 µm to 2.4 µm in diameter. Raised rows were oriented longitudinally, separated by depressed areas 78 µm wide and often filled with numerous small spheres of variable size. Egg shell thickness was 1.8 um in depressed areas and up to 9 um in the raised ridges.

). The paired testes are ventral to the vitellaria and located on the posterolateral border of the intestine on the right side of the body. Each testis is round and compact and gives rise to a vas deferens that leads to the copulatory organ. The organ contains an anterior saclike vesicula seminalis atop a compact glandular vesicula granulorum. The base of the organ was ensheathed in its own longitudinal musculature while some fibres originating from the bodywall also appeared to supply the organ. A sclerotic copulatory apparatus was present at the distal end of the organ.

A thin membrane exists between the bars for the length of the tine except around 50 % length where an aperture (8 µm by 5 µm) is present. Proximally, the left and right base of the dorsal tine is connected to the respective left and right tines immediately ventral to it. The paired median tines are lanceolateshaped structures, ca. 58 µm long, constructed similar to the dorsal tine but with a larger and more triangularshaped aperture (18 µm long) at ca. 60% length. The paired ventral tines, ca. 58 µm long, are somewhat bladeshaped with two apertures: a lateral circular aperture to 7 um diameter and a medial elliptic aperture to 4 µm wide. A small curved bar extends from the most medial side of the circular aperture to the lateral side of the tine. The tip and base of the bladeshaped tine are perforated with tiny holes.

, the copulatory stylet also consists of several tines in relatively similar positions, though their morphology differs considerably from that of other species. The stylet is bilaterally symmetric and constructed of five tines: two layers of ventral tines on either side of the midline of a single dorsal tine. The dorsal tine is connected to all four pieces at its paired proximal base.

). Movements of individual tines other than lateral bending appears restricted presumably because all tines are branches of the common base and devoid of joints. Unfortunately, muscle attachments to individual tines could not be ascertained from histological sections, so their range of possible movements is unknown. However, the perforated appearance of the proximal handles and ventral tines might indicate insertion points for retractor muscles.

However, it was difficult to make good squash mounts of the stylet, and unfortunately, in the majority of specimens examined, the stylet was ‘peeled', making observations of individual tines extremely difficult. Attempts to isolate the stylet by dissolving away soft tissue using dilute sodium hypochlorite also dissolved much of the stylet, especially the thin membraneous sheet that connects the tine bars. Future attempts to isolate and observe the stylet using scanning electron microscopy might provide more useful taxonomic characters than can be ascertained with light optics.</paragraph>
