Head slightly set off by narrow neck region. Cuticle not punctate but marked with faint transverse striations indiscernible in the lateral fi elds. Buccal cavity cup-shaped, surrounded by six short cephalic setae, 1.5 – 2 µ m, and four long submedian cephalic setae, 8 – 10 µ m.

9200010C390DFF8DFE39FCE5FDC5F250.taxon	diagnosis	Differential diagnosis Setosabatieria was fi rst erected to accommodate two Sabatieria species possessing synapomorphic features warranting recognition as a separate genus, namely the lack of cuticular punctations and the presence of characteristic sublateral fi les of numerous long cervical setae. The other two species of Setosabatieria so far included are S. hilarula (De Man, 1922) and S. fi bulata (Wieser, 1954). All three species in this genus differ from one another in a combination of the number of amphid turns, the number of cervical setae, the number of pre-cloacal supplements and the structure of the spicules. Setosabatieria hilarula, recorded in south-west England, north-west England, Denmark and the West coast of Scotland, has a wide range of numbers of cervical setae (3 – 21 per fi le). The number per fi le in S. jingjingae sp. nov. is also variable (fi ve to eight), and so may not be a reliable or stable distinguishing character between species. S. jingjingae sp. nov. and S. fi bulata differ in the number of amphid turns (4.25 in S. fi bulata) and S. fi bulata is characterized by a tail with short cylindrical part, 3 – 3.3 anal diameters long, with slender terminal setae. Setosabatieria jingjingae sp. nov. is closest to S. hilarula in the number of amphid turns, the De Man ratio ‘ a’, the number of cervical setae and the tail length measured in corresponding anal diameters. The main difference between them is in the structure of the spicules and the number of precloacal supplements. There are central strips longer than half of the spicule in S. jingjingae sp. nov. (58 – 67 % of the spicule length measured as the arc). There are nine precloacal supplements in S. jingjingae sp. nov. and 11 – 16 in S. hilarula (table 2 and fi gure 2).	en	Tchesunov, Alexei V., Mokievsky, Vadim O.

9200010C3908FF83FECDFD25FC12F556.taxon	diagnosis	Differential diagnosis So far only the type species A. anechma (Southern, 1914) has been described (R iemann, 1967; Lorenzen, 1977). Amphimonhystera circula sp. nov. can be distinguished from A. anechma by its size (910 – 970 µ m in the former, 1660 – 1860 µ m in the latter) and the shape of amphids in the male which are circular in the former compared to oval, 27 µ m long and 20 µ m wide, in the latter. The shape of the tail is also different (5.9 – 6.1 a. b. d. in A. sp. nov., 3.5 – 4.2 a. b. d. in A. anechma), and the gubernaulum in A. anechma has a much more complicated structure.	en	Tchesunov, Alexei V., Mokievsky, Vadim O.

Large right ventro-lateral tooth, 7 µ m long, and two less prominent teeth (dorsal and left ventro-lateral in position). Mouth surrounded by six small papillae and 10 cephalic setae, 8 – 10 µ m, arranged in one circle. Cuticular ring separating the two buccal chambers smooth (no denticles).

Tail 2.9 – 4.0 a. b. d., conico-cylindrical. Males. Tail relatively stout over most of length narrowing sharply in posterior quarter. Spicules equal, with rounded, blunt proximal ends. G ubernaculum has pair of 40 – 45 µ m apophyses. Two well-developed pre-cloacal supplements lie close together, distant from the cloacal opening. Anterior supplement 0.6 – 0.9 a. b. d., posterior 0.5 – 0.8 a. b. d. Females. Ovaries paired, equal, opposed, re fl exed.

9200010C3906FF87FE05FA25FDD1F31A.taxon	diagnosis	Differential diagnosis Belbolla zhangi sp. nov is characterized by the number of oesophageal bulbs, the shape of the spicules and gubernacular apophysis, and the size of the two winged precloacal supplements. It is closest to B. tenuidens Cobb, 1920 which also has a long gubernacular apophysis. There are some minor differences in the shape of spicules and tail, but the principal difference between the two species is in the size of the two winged pre-cloacal supplements which are much longer in B. tenuidens (1.4 – 1.5 a. b. d.) than in B. zhangi (0.5 – 0.9 a. b. d.). Whilst it is possible that intermediate forms might be found, we are not inclined to ascribe the present specimens to B. tenuidens, particularly in view of the very different habitats and geographical areas that the two species inhabit (B. tenuidens is from an intertidal sandy beach at Woods Hole, USA). The number of bulbs is an important feature in keys to the genus presented by Belogurov and Belogurova (1980). In four out of six adult specimens we examined there are nine bulbs.	en	Tchesunov, Alexei V., Mokievsky, Vadim O. (2005): Three new species of free-living nematodes from the Bohai Sea, China.
