Description Translation from Nordmann, 1832
Brachiella malleus Rudolphi
Was found by Rudolphi in the oral cavity of a torpedo marmorata at Rimini in 1817, and differs from the previous species only in that the abdomen, even when viewed from the back, is much narrower at its upper part, considerably wider at the back and sloping. is rounded and therefore has an inverted conical shape. The two posterior tips are completely missing, and one notices only the two small, round, yellowish bodies mentioned earlier. The two long arms, which are fused at the tip, have a small, round disc just in front of the cartilaginous attachment device by which they are connected. I was only able to pull the tall male, whose front body was stuck deep in one of the sheaths, out of his hiding place when he was injured. Its abdomen, which consists of several segments, has a lancet-shaped shape, is less arched on the belly than on the back, and has a very small, separate tail-shaped tip at the end.
