Remarks
- Systematics: Kuwanaspis vermiformis is similar to K. annandalei and K. linearis in body shape, but differs from them remarkably in the characters of the 2nd larval skin and pygidium (Takahashi, 1930).
- Structure: Adult female body elongate, lateral margins practically parallel and pygidium narrow. Median lobes unilobed, the 2nd bilobulate, all practically same in shape and size, small, acutely pointed apically, usually deeply once-notched subasally on each side (Takagi, 1970).
- General Remarks: Detailed redescription and illustration by Takagi (1970).
