is a male of a length of 7 mm. and a young female measuring 
4,6 mm. 
The front end tapers considerably and the head-like 
part is distinctly marked by a sharp constriction. The mouth is 
surrounded by 6, nearly globular lips each of which is provided 
with two rather prominent papillæ one superior and one inferior. 
Very characteristic is the spear which has a considerable width in 
its proximal end; it is rather short, narrowing quickly towards the 
apex. The 0esophagus is slender in its distal third and increases 
evenly in width. The tail which has the same shape in both sexes 
is very short, conical with rounded end. In the young female the 
ovary is just laid down; from its position the future place of the 
vulva can be nearly judged to a little behind the middle of the 
body. — There are 17 preanal papillæ in the male arranged in 
five sets of 7, DD 3, 3, and one quite near the anus. The spicules 
are rather large, slightly curved, thickest in the middle and provided 
with two longitudinal lists; accessory pieces small and pointed in 
their proximal end. 
The two specimens were collected near the bank of Varde Aa; 
they were very sluggish in their movements.

This form has been collected on a meadow near Hellerup on 
roots of Bellis. De Man indicates that the species lives in ,,die 
feuchte Erde unserer Wiesen und Marschgrinde".

It belongs to de Man's ,,omnivage Arten". It was collected 
in Lyngby Mose, in moss; in Dyrehaven, near the Fuglesangssø 
where it was taken in mud on roots of plants; in Dyrehaven 
near Springforbi and in Ordrup Mose. In Jutland it was taken in
