MEASUREMENTS

Female (n = 15): L = 1.10- 1.29 (1.20 ± 0.05) mm; a = 20-26 (22.5 ± 1.7); b = 4.1 -4.8 (4.3 ± 0.2); c = 52-73 (58.8 ± 5.4); c' = 0.6- 1.0 (0.7 ± 0.1); V = 45-50 (47.7 ± 1.9); body width at vulva = 48-61 (53.8 ± 3.7) Ilm; body width at anus = 23-33 (29.4 ± 3.0) Ilm; odontostyle = 37-45 (40.7 ± 2.4) Ilm; odontophore = 40-48 (44.9 ± 2.2) Ilm; total stylet = 81 -97 (86.8 ± 4.2) Ilm; oesophagus = 266-291 (276 ± 8.6) Ilm; tail = 17 -24 (20.6 ± 1.8) Ilm; DO = 68-72 (69.7 ± 1.4); ON = 75-79 (76.7 ± 1.2); SIO = 78-90 (83.2 ± 3.8); SIN = 79-88 (84.3 ± 3.1); SlO = 89-95 (90.6 ± 1.8); SlN = 88-94 (90.1 ± 1.7).

This species has been described by Baqri and Jairajpuri (1974) and Ahmad and Jairajpuri (1980) and the measurements presenred above add to our knowledge of the species variability limits.

A bivulval female was observed, the two vaginae were joined by a common uterus. The vulvae positions were V = 47 and 59.

This is new geographical record of species previously known From India only.
