Dorylaimus bryophilus deMan, 1884 .

The small robust body with its long slender spear is distinctive of this species. The posterior two-fifths of the esophagus is enlarged. The front ovary is on the right, the rear on the left, side of the body and they are reflexed to near the vulva. The eggs are one and one-half times as long as the vulva body-width and fill the body cavity. Fig. 4. a-b.
