The length of the present specimen is 24-5 mm., and its maximum thickness about 0-65 mm. The cuticular striations are too fine and faint to measure. The oesophagus is just over 2 mm. long, including a spherical, posterior, non-muscular ventriculus measuring 0-23 mm. in diameter. The muscular oesophagus proper is club-shaped.
