Abstract

Cervidellus cervus N. Sp. is described and illustrated based on morphological, morphometric, and data. In this species robust body that tapers only slightly towards the front. Cuticle transversely striated only. Lip region about ½ as wide as mid body width. Labial probolae slender, fucate, “Y shaped”, occasionally with a few branches. Cephalic probolae thin, flap like, inward pointing with plain or serrate cuticularized borders. Small species generally less than 0.5 mm long. All species are inhabitants of soil or humans and are probably microbivorous though nothing is known as to the nature of their food. Samples were collected from agriculture fields, in Bilara region. (Goodey, 1963).
