PArATYpE: PLA-MA0045, SErIAl SEcTION. All THE TYpE SpEcImENS ArE DEpOSITED IN IZCAS.
Etymology. THE NAmE Of THIS NEw SpEcIES IS DErIvED frOm THE NAmE Of THE fIrST cOllEcTION SITE. THE AUTHOrS HAvE AlSO cOllEcTED THE SpEcIES IN DONgHU PArk, SHENzHEN (N22°33′50″, E114°08′36″) AND HEYUAN, GUANgDONg PrOvINcE (2358'39"N, 115 2'44"E).
Description. THE flAT bODY IS mIlkY-wHITE IN cOlOr AND rOD-SHApED wHEN mOvINg. THE lENgTH AND wIDTH Of mATUrE INDIvIDUAl ArE 1,560–2,290 µm AND 260–440 µm (N=9), rESpEcTIvElY (FIgS. 1A, 3A). THE bODY HAS DENSE cIlIA (lENgTH: 3–5 µm, N=3) AND SENSOrY HAIrS (1–3 HAIrS AS A bUNDlE, lENgTH: 12 µm, N=6) ON ITS SUrfAcE. NUmErOUS rHAbDITES cOvEr THE SUrfAcE Of wHOlE bODY. THE DISTANcE bETwEEN THE ANTErIOr rOUNDED END AND THE EYES IS 210–260 µm (N=5). IN gENErAl, THE pAIrED rENIfOrm EYES ArE lOcATED AT 12% Of THE bODY lENgTH, AND THE DISTANcE bETwEEN THE EYES IS 12–30 µm (N=5) (FIgS. 1A, 2A & C, 3A). THE pHArYNX, 150–290 µm (N=5) lONg, OpENS vENTrAllY pOSTErIOr TO THE EYES. PHArYNgEAl glANDS ArE lOcATED ON EITHEr SIDE Of THE pHArYNX AND EXTEND TO THE ANTErIOr END Of THE INTESTINE (FIgS. 1B, 2C, 3A). THE INTESTINE, 670–960 µm (N=5) IN lENgTH, EXTENDS frOm THE pOSTErIOr END Of pHArYNX TO THE ANTErIOr END Of fEmAlE ATrIUm (FIgS. 1A, 2A, 3A). ADHESIvE glANDS ArE SITUATED AT THE vENTrAl SUrfAcE Of THE lONg-Arc pOSTErIOr END Of bODY. (FIgS. 1D, 3F).
THE fEmAlE rEprODUcTIvE SYSTEm cONSISTS Of OvArIES, OvIDUcTS, fEmAlE ATrIUm AND fEmAlE gONOpOrE. THE pAIrED OvArIES ArE lOcATED ON EITHEr SIDE Of THE INTESTINE AT 66% Of bODY lENgTH. ImmATUrE EggS ArE SITUATED IN THE ANTErIOr 50% Of THE OvArIES, fOllOwED bY mATUrE EggS wITH mOrE pIgmENT. FEmAlE ATrIUm wITH NUmErOUS SpErm frOm OTHEr INDIvIDUAlS IS lOcATED AT THE 75% Of THE bODY lENgTH, pOSTErIOr TO THE INTESTINE (FIgS. 1A, 2A). FEmAlE gONOpOrE IS SUrrOUNDED rADIAllY bY mANY glANDS AND OpENS AT THE vENTrAl SIDE Of THE fEmAlE ATrIUm. (FIgS. 2B & D, 3B).
THE mAlE rEprODUcTIvE SYSTEm cONSISTS Of pAIrED TESTES, vAS DEfErENS, A fAlSE vESIcUlA SEmINAlIS, A vESIcUlA SEmINAlIS, A vESIcUlA grANUlOrUm, A pENIS STYlET AND THE mAlE gONOpOrE. THE pAIrED rOD-SHApED TESTES ArE lOcATED ON EITHEr SIDE Of THE INTESTINE AT 33% Of THE bODY lENgTH. IT cONNEcTS pOSTErIOrlY TO THE fAlSE vESIcUlA SEmINAlIS vIA THE vAS DEfErENTIA. THE lONg OvAl-SHApED fAlSE vESIcUlA SEmINAlIS cONNEcTS TO THE vESIcUlA SEmINAlIS AT ITS lEfT SIDE. THE vESIcUlA SEmINAlIS IS AlSO OvAl- SHApED AND cONNEcTS TO THE vESIcUlA grANUlOrUm AT ITS ANTErIOr lEfT SIDE. THE vESIcUlA grANUlOrUm IS pArTIAllY INSErTED INTO THE bASE Of THE pENIS STYlET (FIgS. 1C, 2B & E, 3B–C). PENIS STYlET, 160– 170 µm (N=3) IN lENgTH, lOcATED pOSTErIOr TO vESIcUlA grANUlOrUm, AND HAS THrEE bENDS (140° AT 50%, 130° AT 65%, AND 100° AT 90% ANTErIOr pOSITION), AND fOrmS A cOmplEX HOOk-SHApED STrUcTUrE. THE bASE Of pENIS STYlET IS fUNNEl-SHApED AND ITS DIAmETEr IS 29–32 µm (N=3). THE DIAmETEr Of pENIS STYlET grADUAllY DEcrEASES frOm THE bASE TO THE pOSTErIOr 33% pOSITION, wHIlE THE DIAmETEr Of THE DISTAl OpENINg IS 6 µm (N=3). THE mAlE gONOpOrE IS lOcATED pOSTErIOr TO THE pENIS STYlET (FIgS. 1F–G, 3D).
THE lENgTH Of THE mATUrE SpErm IS 80–90 µm (N=3), wITH NO ObvIOUS bOUNDArY bETwEEN fEElEr AND bODY. THE lENgTH Of THE SHAfT IS 30–34 µm (N=3). THE pAIrED brISTlES, 8–9 µm IN lENgTH (N=3), ArE lOcATED AT THE bOUNDArY bETwEEN bODY AND SHAfT. THE pOSTErIOr END Of THE SpErm IS THINNEr THAN THE bODY AND HAS A clUSTEr Of brUSHES, 3.0– 4.5 µm IN lENgTH (N=3) (FIgS. 1E, 3E).
Taxonomic comparison. Macrostomum extraculum AX et al., 1990, AND M. retortum PApI, 1951 ArE mOST SImIlAr TO M. shiyanensis n. sp. IN TErmS Of THE mOrpHOlOgY Of THEIr pENIS STYlET (TAb. 3). IN M. extraculum, THE pENIS STYlET IS 68–72 µm IN lENgTH AND AlSO IS SImIlArlY bENT ON DIffErENT DImENSIONS. THE DIAmETEr AT ITS bASE IS 18– 22 µm AND DEcrEASES grADUAllY frOm THE bASE TO THE pOSTErIOr 50% pOSITION. THE DISTAl END IS SlIgHTlY SwOllEN, wITH AN OpENINg Of 3 µm. AS fOr M. retortum, THE pENIS STYlET IS 1 27–138 µm lONg AND HAS TwO cUrvES. THE pOSTErIOr cUrvE SHOwS AN AcUTE ANglE, wHIlE THE DISTAl END IS SlIgHTlY lIfTED AND THE DIAmETEr Of THE OpENINg IS 3.5 µm. IN cONTrAST, THE pENIS STYlET Of M. shiyanensis n. sp. IS 160–170 µm lONg, wHIlE ITS DIAmETEr grADUAllY DEcrEASES frOm THE bASE TO THE pOSTErIOr 33% pOSITION. THE DISTAl END IS NOT SwOllEN, wHIlE THE DIAmETEr Of THE DISTAl OpENINg IS 6 µm. AccOrDINglY, mOrpHOlOgIcAl cHArAcTErISTIcS Of M. shiyanensis n. sp. ArE DISTINcT frOm THOSE Of THE SImIlAr SpEcIES. THErEfOrE, IT IS EvIDENT THAT M. shiyanensis IS A NEw SpEcIES Of THE gENUS Macrostomum.
