Popis: | Operculigera zeehanensis Kane, 1969 Fig. 2; Tables 2, 6, 7 Operculigera zeehanensis Kane, 1969: 369.– Jankowski, 1986: 82; Clamp, 1991: 365. Redescription. Lorica hemispheroidal, suboval in dorsal view, slightly wider than long. Lorica asymmetrical in dorsal view; width of right half from midline to edge noticeably greater than width of left half from midline to edge. Rim of lorica not thickened. Dorsal surface of lorica without curved ridge. Posterior part of vallum reduced to slightly thickened ridge. Anterior and lateral parts of vallum moderately tall; posterior edges of lateral parts sloping moderately to posterior part of vallum, giving anterior and lateral parts symmetrically rounded profile as a whole. Free edge of vallum smooth, even, lacking projections of any sort. Long strip near base of inner wall of each anterolateral part of vallum moderately thickened and projecting inward to form prominent, protruding fold. Rim of lorica aperture moderately thickened. Operculum subcuneate in dorsal view. Anterior edge of operculum moderately thickened to form narrow, ventral shelf; ventral shelf smooth, lacking processes. Macronucleus elongate, cylindroid, usually folded to make compact mass. Macronucleus located in left half of body. Micronucleus ovoid, located almost always near centre of macronucleus rather than near either end. Etymology. The specific name refers to the locality from which the type host was collected. Type material. LECTOTYPE, AUSTRALIA, Tasmania, near Zeehan; W. Drummond; on Phreatoicoides longicollis Nicholls, 1943, pleopods.
