Dimension s.- Body -length = 1.720 mm., max. width=- 0.055 mm., oesophagu s=0.4 9 7 mm., tail= 0.148 mm., vulva= l.088 mm., α= 3 1. 2 7, β =3.46, y =11.62, V = 63.26 per cent. 111 the sample from J2 was recorded a juvenile female o f the genus M o n o n c h u s Bastian, which in its general shape seems to agree rather well with M. l~apillatu~' Bast.
