Abstract
Chiloplacoides antarcticus n. gen., n. sp. is described from western D ronning Maud Land, Antarctica. The new genus, which belongs in the Cep halobidae, is distinguished by prominent, distinctly separate, globula r lips; elongate, plate-like labial probolae which are distally forked and without tines or fringes; absence of cephalic probolae; presence of long seta-like guard processes; and bilateral symmetry of the stoma just posterior to the oral opening.
