Juveniles or regressed adults with observations from 10 fixed and sectioned specimens from Austinograea alayseae from dives #142, 143, 144, 151 and 152. Worms
1-3 mm long by 160-170 lm wide; found in mucous sheaths adhering to host crabs. Ocelli absent. Proboscis apparatus lateral to foregut. Anterior proboscis chamber pyriform, 15 (15-17) lm long 3 15 lm in width at base. Basis robust, intensely eosinophilic, 25 (23-25) lm long by 8 (7-9) lm wide. Single dagger-like stylet on basis, 12 (10-13) lm long, with hub 4 lm wide. Stylet to basis ratio, 0.480 (0.480-0.520). One stylet (9-12 lm) developing within each of two accessory stylet pouches anterolateral to stylet bulb.
Accessory stylet pouches granular, eosinophilic. Middle proboscis chamber circular, 10-13 lm in diameter, granular or layered in appearance. Posterior proboscis chamber
intensely eosinophilic, granular, 25 (20-26) lm long by 15-17 lm wide. Proboscis sheath weakly developed. Body musculature weakly developed with one band of circular
muscles, one band of longitudinal muscles. Submuscular glands numerous, eosinophilic, 8-12 lm in diameter; as a field from anterior to near anus, fewer in number anterior
to cerebrum. In cross section, submuscular glands arrayed as a single row around the body. Cephalic glands absent or reduced. Posterior nerve not observed at level of cloaca.
