FIGURE 5 in Orostylis gen. nov., a new genus of Dalytyphloplanida with seven new species (Platyhelminthes: Rhabdocoela)

FIGURE 5. Orostylis timucuorum sp. nov. Anterior is to the left in A–E, to the top in F–H. A. Squeezed live specimen from the type locality, showing positions of major organs. Inset: anterior margin of pharynx showing six club-like pharyngeal tentacles; drawing by R.M. Rieger. B. Single confocal frame through the pharynx, showing pseudostriated radial muscles. C. Lateral view of specimen from the type locality, showing relative locations of ovary and vitellaria. D. Confocal stack showing the ventral midline with bursa and associated body-wall musculature (DNA-magenta, Muscle actin-green). E. Higher magnification of bursal area, showing bursa with foreign sperm, and bursal pore (red arrow). F. Heavily squeezed stylet of specimen from the type locality, showing general structure and slit along distal portion (arrows). G. Stylet of whole-mounted specimen by R.M. Rieger from Anne McCrary's mudflat, sample 394, 1.29.1970. Same scale as F. H. Stylet in situ from a lightly squeezed specimen from the type locality. Note that the two portions of the stylet base are curved upward (red arrows), and semicircular stylet tip is in a plane perpendicular to that of the base, and that its pointed tip rests in a cup-like depression (green arrow).
