Description

Enchodelus cf. macrodoroides (Steiner, 1914) Thorne, 1939.

Dimensions:

Females (n = 3):L = 1.42-1.47 mm; a = 24 -28; b = 5.2 - 5.6; c = 24- 29; V = 2o- 2 i49_ 53i7 -22; odontostyle = 23 -24 pi; basal portion = 30-31 (x.

Odontostyle length equal to 1.6-1.8 x width of lip region. The latter is offset by a shallow constriction. Tail length equal to 1.8- 2.0 anal body widths. Rectum as long as anal body width, prerectum about four times as long. Gonads with sperm. A male, still within the juvenile cuticle, has seven supplements.

Samples 17, 18, 26, 27, 34, 40 and 42.

E. macrodoroides is species inquirenda (Jairajpuri & Loof, 1968). The present specimens resemble the tropical species E. constrictus Jairajpuri & Loof, 1968, but apart from the improbability that this species should occur in the arctics, the higher supplement number makes me keep them apart from that species.
