Prismatolaimus dolichurus de Man, 1880. Dimensions of 20 females: L = 1.03-1.31 mm; a = 42- 56; b = 4.1- 5.1; c = 2.7- 3.0; V = 5 - 941-443 - 7. Cuticular annulation broad, 1.8 JJ. on middle ofbody, but shallow and mostly indistinct; the cuticle may even appear smooth over large stretches of the body. Amphids opening through transverse slits 4 \x long, located at 32-38 fx or 2.5-3.0 head widths from the anterior end. Mouth cavity 11-15 jx deep. Length of the longer cephalic setae 8 -11 \L. Cardia very large. Vulva inconspicuous, vagina with sclerotization resemblingthat of Trichodorusprimitivus. Dimensions of an intra-uterine egg: 75 X 19 jx. Gonads paired, opposed. I never found developing eggs in both gonads simultaneously; usually the gonad containing one is larger and more distinct than the other; thus the gonads are in most specimens asymmetrically developed. Vulva a transverse slit. Tail measuring 22-29 anal body widths, with spinneret tube 1.2 \L long. Scattered submedian setae are present all over ... : Published as part of P. A. A.
