Abstract
    Brania subterranea (Hartmann-Schroeder, 1956), recorded for the first time from the West Pacific coasts, is studied by scanning electron microscopy. A well developed nuchal organ with cilia bearing disk-like enlargements could be demonstrated. The entrance of the pharynx carries ten papillae and a circlet of ordinary cilia. The fine structure of the simple and compound bristles and also their distribution in correlation with the length of the specimens is given in detail.
