(14) Strandesia longiforma ( Dobbin, 1941) comb. nov.

This species was first described as Prionocypris longiforma Dobbin, 1941 . The seminiferous tubules of the males are spirally enrolled in the anterior area of the valves ( Dobbin 1941) and the attachment of the uropodal ramus carries a so-called Triebel’s loop ( Matzke-Karasz et al. 2014). Both characters are diagnostic of the subfamily Cypricercinae of the family Cyprididae . Külköylüoğlu & Vinyard (2000) recorded the species as Prionocypris (Strandesia) longiforma . The species is here formally, although tentatively, transferred to the genus Strandesia s. lat.
