n. sp. is described from South Africa and illustrated using morphological, morphometric, and molecular techniques. This species is characterized by its body length (1.78-2.14 mm); the size of buccal cavity (38-44 × 24-31 µm), lower dorsal tooth position in relation to buccal cavity base, the position of amphidial aperture just above dorsal tooth apex, with almost straight walls, and tail 144-158 µm long with sickle shaped posterior third part. Phylogenetic analyses based on 18 S rDNA and 28 S rDNA of n. sp. revealed close relationships of the new species with and . This is also an additional geographical record for the genus from South Africa.
