Sardinia, Italy, Isola Budelli, Cavaliere, 41 �� 17 ��� 29.76 ���N 9 �� 20 ��� 52.04 ���E medium- to fine-grained, clean sand, 35 m deep (7 September 2010). Etymology. The stylet (accessory stylet type II) is smaller than in most other species of Brunetorhynchus. Diagnosis. Species of Brunetorhynchus with a stylet 40���50 ��m long and 6���7 ��m wide at the proximal opening, bent about in the middle, with a pointed distal tip and a collar at one side of the proximal opening. A well developed prostate vesicle type III fills the proximal part of the male atrium. Description. Colourless to slightly pink animals, 0.5���1 mm long, with eyes. The gross anatomy is very similar to that of B. deconincki n. sp. but the proboscis is only 1 / 6 th of the total body length and the cone retractors seem to be arranged in three groups. The genital pore is at 80 %, somewhat more caudally in the sectioned specimens, and guarded by a welldeveloped sphincter. The common genital atrium starts as a narrow duct that first receives the uterus frontally and then continues into a wide space in which the male atrium enters at the anterior side and the female duct at the dorsal side. The common atrium, the most distal part of the male atrium and the female duct are lined with a relatively high and nucleated epithelium and are surrounded by thin muscles fibres. The single testis is just behind the pharynx and at the left side, the stylet is at the right side, 41���51 ��m long and 6���7 ��m wide at the proximal opening (m = 47 ��m, n = 16; 49 ��m in the holotype; only the stylet of the individual from Faro exceeds this range with 62 ��m). It ends in a sharp point and is bent over about 130 �� at about one third from its proximal end. The proximal opening is approximately in the middle of the proximal third and its rim has a large, thin collar at one side. As far as it could be seen on this small stylet, two ridges depart from the other side of the opening, join soon and open again to form the distal opening. The shape of the stylet can be rather different depending on the degree of compression and/or the orientation in the slide (see Fig. 2 I���O). The duct of the accessory vesicle type II enters the stylet through its proximal opening, while the seminal duct ends in the collar. The prostate vesicle (type III) is situated in the proximal part of the male atrium and mainly at the concave side of the stylet. The secretion is slightly basophilic and in most sectioned specimens two nuclei were seen. The part of the male atrium that contains the prostate glands is surrounded by longitudinal muscles that insert on the wall of the male atrium distally from the prostate glands. From here on the male atrium is surrounded by strong circular muscles, which gradually become thinner towards the common genital atrium. The female duct (type I) is a short and wide connection between the common atrium and the oviduct. As in B. deconincki n. sp. this oviduct is transformed into a resorbing bursa caudally and receives the ovary and the single vitelloduct anteriorly. Dorsally there is the pyriform seminal receptacle, which has a strong circular muscle sheath where it is attached to the oviduct. The size of this seminal receptacle can vary considerably. No glands were seen at the exit towards the female duct.
