Thoracic setigers all biramous and strongly biannulate, with deep intrasegmen- tal furrows from which pointed, bilimbate setae emerge; thorax blunt, broadest about setiger 5: setigers 10 and 11 tapering abruptly to narrow waist (Fig. 1). First abdominal setiger biannulate. wider than last thoracic setiger; notopodial fascicle slightly more dorsal than thoracic notopodia: notosetae all pointed and bilimbate; neurosetae mixed, dorsal setae in fascicle bilimbate. ventral setae hooded rostrate uncini; each uncinus with slender subdistally expanded shaft; large fang surmounted by crest of four to five subapical teeth in a row. and about 10 small apical teeth in variable arrangement; hood short with smooth edge (Fig. 2). Dorsal wall of median and posterior abdominal segments thin; gut contents readily visible; ventrum of each abdominal segment muscular, bearing large neu- ropodial torus on its posterio-lateral half; small notosetal fascicle seated on in- distinct torus, separated from neuropodium by projecting nephridial pore; noto- podia well separated medially; all abdominal setae rostrate uncini. except for first abdominal setiger. Eversible branchiae complexly palmate, occurring in posterior abdominal se- tigers only; branchiae inserted at posterio-dorsal corners of neuropodial tori (Fig. 3). The pygidium is missing from the holotype. Remarks.—The first abdominal neuropodium of D. oraiia may bear all capillary setae, all rostrate uncini. or a mixture of both. A single specimen bears capillary setae in the second abdominal notopodium also. The last thoracic capillary setae usually point posteriad. those of the first abdominal setiger usually are directed.
