Notes  Habitat: fine sand and decaying roots of Statice limonium L. in a small channel of 't Zwin, 21 PSU [details]

Identification: The present species strongly ressembles Microlaimus marinus (Schulz, 1932), syn. Paracothonolaimus marinus Schulz, 1932, but may be distinguished from it o. a. by the strong cuticularisation of the walls of the buccal cavity and by the smaller size of the amphids. Probably De Man's Bolbolaimus amabilis 1922 nom. nudum is closely allied with our species [details]
