Material examined. Soil sample from Jawol-ri , Incheon (37°15′43.8″N, 126°18′12.1″E), 26 Apr. 2021, Yong-Uk Ahn. Voucher Number: NIBRIV0000900972 GoogleMaps .
Diagnosis. Illoricated body vermiform, transparent, elongate, 440 - 465 μm in length. Head with rostrum and pair of auricles. Retrocerebral organ sac-shaped and with dark color. One eyespot in the posterior part of brain. Stomach and intestine green and orange. Trunk with several transverse folds. Foot with two pseudosegments. Two conical toes, with blunt end. Trophi cardate. Fulcrum thin and elongated in dorsal view. Rami with alulae. Uncus with three teeth, median one largest. Manubrium thick and straight with crescent branch. Epipharynx consisting of a pair of L-shaped rods; each rod between a lamella with serrated anterior margin and leaf-shaped lamella.
Distribution. Cosmopolitan.
Remarks. Lindia torulosa is the most common species in the genus Lindia ( Segers, 2002) . This species is cosmopolitan and in Asia, it has been reported in China ( Wang, 1961) and India ( Sinha, 2014). The morphological characteristics of the Korean specimens were congruent with those of previous studies ( Koste and Shiel, 1990; Segers, 2002). Specially, all the specimens we observed had stomachs and intestines that were green and orange, but their retrocerebral organs were sometimes colorless.
Molecular data. A partial COI sequence (759 bp) was obtained from one specimen (GenBank accession number: OQ445412).
