11. Drawida moriokaensis Ohfuchi, 1938
Drawida moriokaensis Ohfuchi, 1938: 44 , figs. 10-11. [From Morioka, Iwate-ken. Tsukinoki, Miyagi-ken.
Types not known].
Drawida moriokaensis : Easton, 1981: 39, tab. 1; Blakemore, 2003, 2010, 2014; Blakemore & Kupriyanova, 2010: tab. 3.
Distribution. As in original description.
Description. Grey. Size 65-100 mm by up to 3.9 mm with 135-165 segments Setae small and closely paired (ab=cd). Clitellum 10-13. Spermathecal pores 7/8 nearer to c-lines. Male pore on short, stout penes in 10/11 just lateral to b-lines. Female pores paired on 12 near 11/12. Genital papillae absent.
Pharyngeal glands in 3-5. Hearts 6-9; dorsal blood vessel single. Spermathecal ampulla with convoluted, initially bifurcated duct that exits to small atrium in 7/8 without accessory glands. Testis sacs on 9/10 with vas deferens coiled and entering body wall near base of male atrium. Ovarian chamber in 10/11/12 with eggsacs “ usual in shape ”. Gizzards usually three, sometimes two, in 10-13. Nephridia vesiculate, vestigial in 9 and 11.
Remarks. Ohfuchi (1938: 43) said his species was similar to D. tairaensis but was distinguished by having three gizzards and a small spermathecal atrium. D. moriokaensis differs from D. japonica mostly on forms of male pores and lack of GMs. The gizzards are again confused as Ohfuchi (1938: 46) gives them in either 10,11-13 or perhaps 10-11 but shows them ( Ohfuchi, 1938: fig. 1.2) in 10-12! This latter is probably the correct location, i.e., three gizzards in 10-12. It too was not found subsequently.
