The third species, Genolopa magnacirrus sp. nov., from the same host, has a cirrus sac from thirty to fifty percent of the body length, a testis near the posterior extremity and vitellaria well posterior to the acetabulum. 2020-06-15T22:07:55Z 2020-06-15T22:07:55Z 1996 Artigo https://repositorio.inpa.gov.br/handle/1/19372 en Volume 14, Número 1-2, Pags. 131-136 Restrito Amazoniana
