 Lumbriculus illex

Lumbriculus illex is a fresh-water worm, the most recently described member of the genus (Timm & Rodriguez, 1994), and is known only from 3 individuals found in Komarovka stream, north of Vladivostok.In most regards, this species is probably similar to "Lumbriculus variegatus", but it can be told apart from this species by its one-pointed setae (other "Lumbriculus" have two-pointed setae).
