Taxon discussion
Enchodelus macrodorus was originally described by de Man (1880) from the Netherlands. It is the most widely spread Enchodelus species. Guerrero and Peňa-Santiago (2007) and Guerrero et al. (2008 b) re-described American specimens of E. macrodorus studied by Thorne (1939), noted that these specimens apparently fitted very well with those described by de Man (1880), considered that many subsequent records of the species were doubtful or might correspond to other species, provided an emended diagnosis of this species and regarded the populations reported by Thorne (1939), Jairajpuri and Loof (1967), Ahmad and Jairajpuri (1980), Nasira et al. (1992) and Ahmad et al. (2002), also three of the populations reported by Popovici (1995 a) to be conspecific with E. macrodorus. Later Pedram et al. (2009) reported the species for the first time from Iran and presented the first integrative study of the species.
Notes
Morphological characterisation
Material examined. One female in good condition, mounted on one slide and collected from Rasquilla, Navalsauz, Avila Province, Spain, in grassland riparian zone close to the Alberche River (N 40 º 24.350 ' W 05 º 01.817 ', elevation 1247 m a. s. l.) in May 2021.
Measurements: Table 1, Fig. 2
Diagnosis (based in examined specimen)
Enchodelus macrodorus is characterised by its 1.44 mm long body, lip region 18.5 μm wide and offset by weak depression, odontostyle 39.0 μm long or 2.1 times lip region diameter, odontophore flanged and 1.1 times as long as odontostyle, neck 326 μm long, pharyngeal expansion occupying two-fifths of the total neck length, female genital system diovarian, uterus short (63, 68 μm long), pars refringens vaginae with two rectangular sclerotisations, vulva (V = 44 %), tail short and rounded (20 μm, c = 71, c’ = 0.5) bearing saccate bodies.
Remarks
The studied female perfectly fits, morphologically and morphometrically, with the previous descriptions of this species, especially with the re-description of the Thorne material provided by Guerrero and Peňa-Santiago (2007).
Molecular characterisation
One partial 18 S rRNA and one D 2 - D 3 of 28 S rRNA gene sequences were obtained for this species. In the partial 18 S rRNA (Fig. 3) gene tree, the sequence of the Spanish E. macrodorus clustered together to another sequence of the same species (FJ 042953) and inside of a highly-supported clade (PP = 100) with other Enchodelus spp. In the D 2 - D 3 of 28 S rRNA (Fig. 4) gene tree, the sequence of the Spanish E. macrodorus formed a highly-supported clade (PP = 100) with E. enguriensis sp. nov. and another three Enchodelus sequences from GenBank.
Regarding the molecular data for this species, it appears that the sequence AY 593054 available in GenBank was incorrectly identified or labelled. This sequence is herein identified as belonging to Pungentus silvestris (Figs 3, 4). Besides, the sequence AY 284791, available in GenBank, was incorrectly identified too and most probably belongs to a Pungentus species.
