The spermatozoa of two genera and species of Cyclodorippidea, Xeinostoma richeri (Xeinostomidae) and Tymolus sp. (Cyclodorippinae), and one species of Cymonomus sp. (Cymonomidae) are found to constitute a distinctive cyclodorippoid sperm-type characterized by (1) sperm anteroposteriorly depressed, mean ratio of lenght to width 0.54-0.63; (2) operculum extending to the lateral limits of the acrosome (autapormorphy of cyclodorippoids) and centrally perforate or (Cymonomus sp.) thinner; (3) contents of acrosome vesicle with two major horizontal zones, as in homolids and dynomenids, including a dese lower (posterior) zone; (4) perforatorium very wide (0.3 width of acrosome) anteriorly rounded, not capitate, lacking radiate projections; (5) acrosomal capsule with external projections over its posterio half; (6) slender dense filaments extending into the perforatorium from its walls, their bases associated with corrugations of its basal wall; (7) nucleus, cupping the acrosome and cytoplasm, with well-developed posterior median process; (8) nuclear arms lacking microtubules; (9) cytoplasm, a narrow postacrosomal band extending anteriorly as far as the operculum, associated with a few degenerate mitochondria.
