Redescription of Echinoderes dujardinii (Kinorhyncha) with descriptions of closely related species
A k.ey to the adults of the genus Echinoderes is followed by a redescription of E. dujardinii from both adult and juvenile specimens. North American records for E. dujardinii are corrected by the description of E. kozlofJi, new species. Echinoderes pennaki, a species sympatric with E. kozlofJi, is redescribed, and the latter's sibling species, E. pacificus, is discussed. Synonomies and distribution records are given for
species mentioned.
