(of Provortex tellinae Graff, 1882) Graff, L., von. (1882). Monographie der Turbellarien 1. Rhabdocoelida. <em>[Book].</em> 1-442, Verlag Wilhelm Engelmann, Leipzig., available online at https://books.google.com/books/about/Monographie_der_Turbellarien.html?id=LT0hAQAAMAAJ [details] 
original description (of Macrostomum scrobiculariae Graff, 1882) Graff, L., von. (1882). Monographie der Turbellarien 1. Rhabdocoelida. <em>[Book].</em> 1-442, Verlag Wilhelm Engelmann, Leipzig., available online at https://books.google.com/books/about/Monographie_der_Turbellarien.html?id=LT0hAQAAMAAJ
note: Graff (1882) wrongly cites Villot (1879) as authority of the name. Villot (1879) just mentions he found a rhabdocoel that seems very related to Macrostomum, but does not provide a name. In later works...

Graff (1882) wrongly cites Villot (1879) as authority of the name. Villot (1879) just mentions he found a rhabdocoel that seems very related to Macrostomum, but does not provide a name. In later works, Graff (1903, 1913) and Wahl (1906) both correctly cite Graff as the authority.
