Further paratype female No 1068 deposited in the Museum of Helminthological Collections in the Centre of Parasitology of A.N. Severtsov Institute of Ecology and Evolution RAS, Moscow, Russia and paratype male and fragments of male and female are in the first author’s collection. Type host and locality: Coelomic cavity of Eudrilus sp., USNM 52754, collected 145 miles NW from Lagos, University of Ifa, Nigeria, May–June 1975, leg. A.O. Segun. Etymology: The species is named after its earthworm host. Diagnosis and relationships. Drilonematoidea, Drilonematidae, Dicelinae. This species is characterized by well-tapered, conoid tail in both sexes, cephalic papillae in two circles, cylindroid pharynx, faint amphids with pore-like apertures, conspicuous excretory pore, nerve ring situated around intestine in front of excretory pore in adults and juveniles, long off-set spermatheca, post-median position of vulva, lack of post-uterine sac, smallish fimbriate organs, strong long spicules, and male caudal papillae reduced to two pairs. A narrowly conoid tail, prominent excretory pore, very long spermatheca, relatively long spicules and presence of only two pairs of male caudal papillae distinguish this species from the other nominal species in the genus, all of them of Palearctic origin and parasitic in lumbricid earthworms. The genus Dicelis includes 14 species, viz. D. filaria Dujardin, 1845 (type species), D. caledoniensis Spiridonov, Ivanova & Wilson, 2005, D. eiseniae Timm, 1967, D. hyrcanus Belostotskaya, Kozodoi & Spiridonov, 1987, D. keimeri Morand, Ivanova & Vaucher, 1996, D. kimmeriensis Ivanova, 1993, D. lovatiana Ivanova, 1993, D. lumbricicola Ivanova, 1993, D. nira Chitwood & Lucker, 1934, D. pereliae Ivanova, 1993, D. rossica Timm, 1967, D. rubidi Ivanova, 1994, D. sibirica Ivanova, 1994 and D. ussuriensis Spiridonov, Ivanova & Wilson, 2005. All of them have shorter, broader, cylindroid or conoid tails, often with digitiform appendages, much smaller and sometimes morphologically indistinct spermatheca, shorter spicules and indistinct excretory pore and duct. Exceptional for, and characteristic of, D. eiseniae, are the position of the vulva near mid-body and the presence of a post-uterine sac. The characters by which this species differs from other species of Dicelis, namely the narrowly conoid tail, prominent excretory pore, very long spermatheca and spicules, post-median vulva position and fimbriate organs, are more similar to characters of another genus of the same subfamily, namely Adieronema Timm, 1967. This latter genus is parasitic in megascolecid earthworms of East-Asian origin, but Dicelis differs from this genus by the absence of polar differentiation in eggs, (present in Adieronema). Remarks. The Dicelinae, to which this species is assigned, contains only two genera, Dicelis and Adieronema. The first is parasitic in lumbricid earthworms and the second in megascolecids. Our new species is the first representative of the subfamily parasitic in a host from another family and geographical region. Timm (1967) differentiated Adieronema from Dicelis on the basis of a few characters, i.e. larger size, prominent excretory pore and very numerous typical ova with bipolar corona. This species displays affinities with species of both genera. In terms of general appearance it more strongly resembles species of Adieronema than those of Dicelis, but shares similarities with Dicelis spp. in body size, and less numerous (several dozens vs several hundreds), but larger sized eggs lacking polar differentiation. For several species of Dicelis (D. hyrcanus, D. lovatiana, D. rubidi, D. caledoniensis) it has been shown that the nerve ring in juveniles is situated around the pharynx, but that it “slips” to a position around the intestine during the growth of the nematodes. In the new species the nerve ring position remains the same in both adults and juveniles. This species may represent yet another lineage of the genus, associated with eudrilid earthworms. Paradicelis gen. n. Diagnosis. Drilonematoidea, Drilonematidae, Dicelinae. Four papilliform cephalic sensilla. Mouth aperture terminal. Stoma short, infundibular. Amphids pore-like. Pharynx cylindroid. Nerve ring circum-intestinal. Excretory pore anterior to nerve ring. Males monorchic; spicules paired and curved; gubernaculum plate-like. Irregular bursa supported by whip-like sensilla. Paired small caudal fimbriate organs present. Females unknown. Etymology: The generic name reflects an affinity with the genus Dicelis.

    La Death Education è una realtà che, negli Stati Uniti, nell’Europa settentrionale ed in Israele, ha già assunto una consistenza significativa, e, che, da qualche tempo, si sta diffondendo anche in Italia. Se nel secolo scorso i temi inerenti al morire venivano rubricati – come sottolineava in un celebre articolo Geoffrey Gorer del 1955 “The pornography of death” – tra gli argomenti osceni, con il nuovo millennio sembra che stia lentamente tramontando la volontà di occultare l’evidenza della morte e la sua inevitabilità. Possiamo infatti annoverare un numero sempre crescente di iniziative artistiche e di occasioni scientifiche che discutono di questo per promuoverne la presa di coscienza individuale e collettiva, alla ricerca dei linguaggi da adottare e dei contenuti su cui soffermarsi per descrivere la finitudine umana e i vissuti di perdita che la caratterizzano. L’allungamento del lifespan garantito dallo sviluppo della medicina ha prodotto un ulteriore effetto consistente nel prolungamento delle fasi finali e terminali della vita e della malattia, esponendo quindi le persone a dover fare i conti con l’evidenza del dover morire. La linea culturale, sviluppata a partire dal secondo dopoguerra caratterizzata da censura e negazionismo rispetto a questa necessità, ha prodotto infatti un esito fortemente disfunzionale che oggi richiede di essere gestito e risolto, perché ha reso intere generazioni abituate all’agio, al benessere, alla ricchezza e alla pace, a non sapere come gestire il momento più difficile ma anche forse più importante della vita: quello del congedo dal mondo. L’attuale mancanza di linguaggi appropriati per comunicare con chi muore e con i dolenti, come pure l’assenza di una cultura che illustri i significati che hanno caratterizzato la storia dell’umanità per affrontare la prova esistenziale più difficile è l’esito appunto di mezzo secolo di scotomizzazioni sistematiche che non possono più essere ammesse, data l’istanza diffusa di riconquistare categorie in grado di farci assumere la morte come elemento essenziale del significare la vita
