(Fig. 7)
Known distribution. Several localities in the Mediterranean: France (Brunet 1967); several localities in Sardinia (Italy) (Gobert et al. 2017). Lanzarote (Canary Islands) (Gobert et al. 2017). Possibly North Carolina, United States (Whitson et al. 2011).
Material and distribution in Cuba. Three specimens studied alive and whole mounted (HU X.1.08– X.1.10), collected in Siboney (September 4, 2016; December 14, 2017), sublittoral, fine-grained sand with organic matter, 0.7–2 m depth, salinity 32–35 ‰.
Remarks. The live animals from Cuba are about 1.5–2 mm long, yellowish, without eyes. There is a pale belt near the posterior body end, corresponding to the single adhesive girdle. Proboscis (Fig. 7A: pr, 7B–C) symmetric to lightly asymmetric; largest lip 126–130 µm long (n = 2) and the smallest one 118–119 µm long (n = 2). Proboscis with paired fields of shark-tooth-shaped denticles situated along each proboscis lip, separated by a characteristic ‘basal gap’ (see Brunet, 1967; Schilke 1970a; Whitson et al. 2011; Gobert et al. 2017). In the basal half of the toothed belts, the denticles are 1–2 µm long (x = 1 µm; n = 23) and are more or less ordered in three or four rows; in the distal half the denticles appear a bit larger 1–2 µm long (x = 2 µm; n = 12) and are ordered in two rows. In live animals, polygonal glands were observed in the internal surface of the lips (Fig. 7B: prg); the largest ones arranged in two rows on the central longitudinal axis of each lip. These larger glands are accompanied by smaller glands. None of these glands are observable on the whole mounts. Pharynx (Fig. 7A: ph) located at 50%, being about 7% of the body length in live animals.
Three pairs of testes (Fig. 7A: t) are arranged in two rows in front of the pharynx. Copulatory bulb (Fig. 7D) 63–119 µm long (x = 92 µm; n = 3); it comprises the prostate vesicle and the spiny cirrus. Prostate vesicle (Fig. 7D: pv) 67–87 µm long (x = 77 µm; n = 2). Spiny cirrus (Fig. 7D: ci) 26–35 µm long (x = 32 µm; n = 3), proximally 7–12 µm wide (x = 9 µm; n = 3) and distally 17–19 µm wide (x = 18 µm; n = 3).

http://zoobank.org/ urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: 4A 200176 -9D9C-49CF-865D-F56B95ACADD3
Material. One specimen studied alive and whole mounted, designated holotype (FMNH https://id.luomus.fi/ KV.613), from Siboney (type locality) (December 9, 2017), sublittoral, medium-grained clean sand, 4 m depth, salinity 33 ‰.
Etymology. The epithet refers to the extinct Saber-tooth tigers Smilodon spp. (Mammalia), as the new species has some large denticles on the proboscis.
Diagnosis. Species of Carcharodorhynchus with symmetric proboscis, lips 127 µm long. The belts of denticles show a ‘basal gap’; denticles shark-tooth shaped, 2 µm long in the basal half of the belts, ordered in four rows, and 5 µm long in the distal half, ordered in a single row. Spiny cirrus 33 µm long.
Description. Live animal about 2 mm long, yellowish, caudally dark yellow-brownish, without eyes. There is a pale belt near the posterior body end, corresponding to the single adhesive girdle. Proboscis lips symmetric, 127 µm long. Proboscis (Fig. 8A: pr, 8B–C) with paired fields of shark-tooth-shaped denticles, situated on a belt on each proboscis lip. Denticles at the base of the proboscis separated by a ‘basal gap’. In the basal half of the toothed belts, the denticles are 1–2 µm long (x = 2 µm; n = 17) and are ordered in four to five rows. More distally there is only one row of 4–6-µm-long denticles (x = 5 µm; n = 12). In live animals, polygonal glands are present on the internal surface of the lips. The largest of the glands are arranged into two rows following the central longitudinal axis of each lip. At both sides of the large glands, smaller glands can be observed. These glands are not observable on the whole mounts. Pharynx 133 µm in diameter, located at 60%.
Testes not observed. A pair of elongated seminal vesicles open proximally into the copulatory bulb. Copulatory bulb (Fig. 8 D–E) 162 µm long, with the same construction as that of C. flavidus; it comprises the very large prostate vesicle (Fig. 8 D–E: pv) and the spiny cirrus. Spiny cirrus (Fig. 8 D–F: ci) 33 µm long, proximally 9 µm wide and distally 16 µm wide, with the same morphology as that of C. flavidus, including the detailed morphology and dimensions of the spines (see Brunet 1967).
Paired vitellaria extend between the brain (Fig. 8A: br) and the copulatory bulb. Bursa and ovaries (Fig. 8 E–F: ov) are situated just caudally from the copulatory bulb. A single oocyte was observed in each ovary.

http://zoobank.org/ urn:lsid:zoobank.org:act: 2CF67117-9665-4779-96D4-2B0A4272D392
Material. One specimen studied alive and whole mounted, designated holotype (FMNH https://id.luomus.fi/ KV.617), collected in Bueycabón (type locality) (February 21, 2018), sublittoral, fine-grained sand with organic matter, 0.5 m depth, salinity 33 ‰.
Etymology. Species dedicated to Prof. Em. Dr. José Espinosa Sáez (Instituto de Ciencias del Mar, La Habana, Cuba), specialist in ecology and taxonomy of molluscs, and awarded with the National Award of Marine Sciences of Cuba (2018).
Diagnosis. Species of Schizochilus with a spiny cirrus 71 μm long; spines talon-shaped, about 3 μm long. A 52-μm-long, needle-shaped stylet runs centrally through the cirrus. Copulatory bulb distally forming a 12-μm-long cap.
Description. Animal 0.9 mm long, measured on the whole mount, translucent, without eyes. Proboscis lips (Fig. 12A: pr) 77–92 μm long (x = 85 μm; n = 2), with a pair of caudal glands. Pharynx (Fig. 12A: ph) 72 μm in diameter, located at 70%.
Four testes (Fig. 12A: t) lie in a row rostrally from the pharynx, fused two by two into two pairs. Copulatory bulb (Fig. 12A: cb, 15E) 77 μm long, comprising the prostate vesicle and the spiny cirrus. The cirrus is 71 μm long and 6 μm wide, measured over its midlength. The spines are talon-shaped and about 2–3 μm long (x = 3 μm; n = 2). A 52-µm-long stylet (Fig. 12B) runs centrally through the cirrus. It is 6 μm wide proximally, needle shaped, and tapers to a distal sharp point. The copulatory bulb forms a distal sclerotized cap of 12 μm long and 9 μm wide at the widest point. As such, it surrounds the cirrus for 23% of the latter’s length. The common gonopore (Fig. 12A: cg) opens at 90%.
A pair of vitellaria (Fig. 12A: vi) extend between the brain (Fig. 12A: br) and the copulatory bulb, one vitellarium at each side of the body. A bursa (Fig. 12A: b) and ovary (Fig. 12A: ov) are located in the caudal body end. The uterus (Fig. 12A: ut) is directed forwards, situated beside the copulatory bulb.

Anastatus dendrolimus Kim and Pak, 1965: 73. Described: both sexes.
Anastatus dendrolimus; Xiao et al., 2001: 204. Misidentification of A. japonicus.
Species concept. Our concept of A. dendrolimus is based on the original description only. We were unable to locate type material of the species, supposedly deposited in Korea University, which according to Duk-Young Park (Seoul National University, Seoul, Republic of Korea) could not be found in the University collection (personal communication).
Regional material examined. None.
Distribution. PALAEARCTIC: Korea (Noyes 2019).
Remarks. Xiao et al. (2001) identified A. dendrolimus from Jilin Province, but a voucher female in IZCAS examined by L. Peng proved to be A. japonicus, and we therefore exclude A. dendrolimus from the fauna of China. However, we are uncertain of the exact identity of A. dendrolimus, including even its generic status. The short original description is insufficient to confidently identify the species because it states, in part, that females have the axillae smooth, whereas the axillae are quite distinctly reticulate for typical female Anastatus. The characterisation of smooth axillae more closely approximates the condition of female Mesocomys, which as noted under ‘Remarks’ for the genus, often have similar fore wing colour patterns and a basally white-banded gaster as for typical female Anastatus. However, the only species of Mesocomys known from South Korea is M. albitarsis (Ashmead, 1904) (Noyes 2019), females of which have dark legs rather than the described yellow legs for A. dendrolimus. Further, Kim and Pak (1965) reported M. albitarsis in the same paper, under the name Pseudanastatus albitarsis, as a second species reared from D. spectabilis eggs.

Species concept. Our concept of A. kashmirensis is based on the original description plus Hayat (1975) and Narendran (2009).
Regional material examined. None.
Distribution. ORIENTAL: India (Himachal Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir) (Noyes 2019).
Remarks. Hu et al. (2011) identified and provided a lateral habitus photograph of a female they identified as A. kashmirensis from Hainan Provence, but a voucher female in IZCAS examined by L. Peng proved to be A. dexingensis. We therefore exclude A. kashmirensis from the fauna of China. Noyes (2019) also listed the United States of America under distribution of this species, but the record was based on Weseloh et al. (1979), who imported the species in quarantine to investigate its potential for biocontrol of the gypsy moth, but explicitly stated that release was considered as inappropriate. Therefore, confirmed records for A. kashmirensis include only India.

Hyale maroubrae Stebbing, 1899a: 405, pl. 32C.—Stebbing,1906: 563.—Barnard, 1916: 229.—Sheard, 1937: 26.—Ruffo, 1950: 56.—Hurley, 1957: 913, figs 51–71.—Myers, 1985, 72, fig. 54.
Material examined. 2 males (OUMNH.ZC.2002.24.116) Outside Pinchers, from floating algae (Turbinaria ornata), leaves on driftline; 07°19.839'N, 134°24.154'E; leg. S. De Grave & C. Burras, 22 May 2002; 1 male, 2 females, (OUMNH.ZC.2002.24.117) Inside Pinchers, light trap sample, sandy callianasid flat, - 3m depth; 07°20.407'N, 134°25.755'E; leg. S. De Grave & C. Burras, night 27th–28th May 2002.
Remarks. This material agrees well with the description of H. maroubrae Stebbing 1899 a, except that the male gnathopod 1 does not have a produced palm as in that species. Present material is quite small; however, (3.0 mm) as opposed to 5.0 mm in type material. It may therefore not be fully mature.
Distribution. Indo-Pacific.
