|synonym_reference_01=nomen nudum, Omodeo, 1958

|short_description=Body slender, slightly prismatic. Adult specimens are 56 and 58 mm long and 0.8 mm thick (1 mm at the cilitellum). Segments without evident secondary annulation to about 120. No cutaneous pigment, body wall transparent. Prostomium zygolobous, semicircular. No dorsal pores; nephridial pores perhaps on the lateral line. Male and females pores not perceptible by external inspection, but paired at 11/12 and 12/13 respectively, near the setal line ab. Three spermathecal pores along the middle dorsal line at 6/7, 7/8, 8/9. Two pairs of ventral setae on all segments (peristomium excepted), the dorsal setae disappear from XL onward.

Internal morphology: No gizzard, no typhlosole, no calciferous glands; septal glands in IV, V. Septa thin, the anterior ones funnel-shaped. Circulatory apparatus greatly developed in the cephalic segments; in each segment from I to XIII there are paired convoluted transverse commissures connecting the dorsal and the ventral vessel. These commissures are similar to those of ''[[Haplotaxis villiersi]]'' but their form is altered by the extrusion of the pharynx; in the following segments commissures are straight. Holonephridia begin in XVI or XVII, covered by vesicular peritoneal cells. The setae ab of XI-XV are implanted in small glandular pads. There is a single pair of testes situated in the fore part of XI and a single pair of seminal vesicles derived from XI-XII, which penetrates the ovarian sacs, filling them almost completely. Ciliated seminiferous funnels are situated in the ventral lip of sperm sacs. There is a single pair of ovaries in the front part of XIII followed by a pair of long ovarian sacs derived from XIII-XIV. The left ovarian sac in the dissected adult specimen reaches XXVI, and the right one reaches XXX. The bigger ovarian eggs measure about 250 x 170 x 100 um, the eggs contained in the bottom of ovarian sacs, rich in yolk, are spherical with a diameter of 350 um and are yellow in color. Female funnels were not observed. In a young specimen there was a pair of rudimentary gonads (ovotestis ?) in XII. The unpaired spermathecal pores open in 6/7 - 8/9 along the dorso-median line: the duct is short with thin walls, the ampulla is pyriform, transversely enlarged. The anterior spermatheca is bilobed and smaller, the posterior is bigger, they no longer contain sperms, in adult specimens.
