Plectus cf. armatus Biitschli, 1873 View in CoL .

Two females. Dimensions: L = 0.52-0.61 mm; a = 18-19; b = 4. 1-4.3; c = 8.5-10.0; V = 8 - 12508 - 1 0.

Through small body size, value of 'a' and by the normal location of the amphids these specimens differ from P. assimilis , which they resemble in the general body shape and the short, conoid tail. They resemble P. armatus , but the cephalic setae do not have the typical shape and direction of that species as redescribed by Maggenti (1961): they are directed obliquely sideward and are not thickened at the base.
