Description
Summary:FIGURE 5. Ventral view of the posterior body region of a male Gordionus wolterstorffii from Iceland. (A) Ventral view of the posterior end with posterior lobes, cloaca (Cl), bristle fields (arrow), and post-cloacal spines (pcs). Scale bar = 50 µm. (B) Posterior lobes showing postcloacal spines (arrows) and bristles (br) on the terminal ends of the tail lobes. Scale bar = 20 µm. (C) Higher magnification showing postcloacal spines with blunt ends and ones that come to a point. Scale bar = 9 µm. (D) Cloacal opening surrounded by circumcloacal spines (arrow). Scale bar = 18 µm. (E) Lateral view of bristle fields showing branched apices on terminal ends of bristles. Scale bar = 10 µm. (F) Close-up of a single bristle showing hand-like branching pattern. Scale bar 3 µm. : Published as part of Anaya, Christina, Galbreath, Kurt E. & Bolek, Matthew G., 2021, Morphological and molecular characterization of adult hairworms (Phylum Nematomorpha) from Iceland and the Faroe Islands, and documentation of their non-adult stages and hosts, pp. 234-256 in Zootaxa 4927 (2) on page 244, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4927.2.4, http://zenodo.org/record/4537047
