Abstract
    Two new epsilonematid nematode species from Kenyan intertidal areas are describe: Bathyepsilonema anulosum sp. n. -characterized by the large number of body-annules (118-124); small amphid, straight ambulatory setae and the very small copulatory thorns of the males- and Leptepsilonema richardi sp. n., -characterized by the sexual dimorphism in the amphid, the ornamentation of the body cuticle and the umbrella shaped captulum in the males.
