Criconemal spec. (Fig. 13 C).

Two juveniles. Dimensions: L = 0. 16 - 0.19 mm; a = 8 -10; b = 2.5-2.6; R = 70-71; spear = 33- 38 jx. Annules with eight alternating rows of broad, rounded scales. This would point rather to the genus Hemicriconemoides (see de Grisse & Loof, 1965) but this is a mainly tropical genus and in the Spitzbergen specimens head shape is more reminiscent of Criconema and Nothocriconema . Tail tapering, acute.

Sample 27.
