Description

Teratocephalus terrestris de M a n.

de Man, 1884, p. 102, pl. xv, fig. 62.

Dimensions.-Body-length = 0.588 m m., m a x. width = 0. 0 1 4 m m., oesophagus- = 0.148 m m., tail = 0 - 0 8 0 m m., vulva = 0. 3 4 8 m m., α =4 2. 0, β =3.9 7, γ = 7. 3 5, V =59.18 per cent.

Although the tail is a little more elongated and narrower than de Man has figured it, the single female from B9 seems in every respect to be a rather typical representative of this species, described by de Man.
