TRIGONOSTOMUM BRUNCHORSTI GRAFF, 1905 Trigonostomum brunchorsti Graff, 1905: 115–116, t. III, figs 24, 25; 1913: 311, figs 274, 275; Meixner, 1924b: 96, 98; Steinböck, 1932: 309. Distribution: Norway (Graff, 1905), Greenland (Steinböck, 1932). According to Graff’s (1905, 1913) description, the overall morphology of the copulatory organ resembles that of T. penicillatum . The two plate-like structures differ somewhat in shape, ending both proximally as well as distally in a hook-like structure (see Graff, 1905: taf. 3, fig. 24). The bursal appendage is described as resembling that of T. venenosum . The position of the pharynx in the middle of the body is exceptional for a member of Trigonostomum and new material is needed to confirm the validity and/or the taxonomy of this species. : Published as part of Willems, Wim R., Artois, Tom J., Vermin, Wouter A. & Schockaert, Ernest R., 2004, Revision of Trigonostomum Schmidt, 1852 (Platyhelminthes, Typhloplanoida, Trigonostomidae) with the description of seven new species, pp. 271-296 in Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 141 (2) on page 293, DOI: 10.1111/j.1096-3642.2004.00124.x, http://zenodo.org/record/4634553 : {"references": ["von Graff L. 1905.
