Previously proposed synonym. Cyclocoelum capellum Jaiswal, 1957 nec Khan, 1935 — Dubois (1965).
Remarks. This species was originally described as Cyclocoelum ( Cyclocoelum) odeningi Dubois, 1965 from specimens from the Odening Collection. The specimens illustrated in the three figures of Dubois (1965) appear to be contracted and the specimens in Figs. 2 and 3 View FIGURES 1 – 4 are bent towards the side of the ovary.The position of the ovary appears to be reflected best in Figs. 1 and 2 View FIGURES 1 – 4 of Dubois (1965) where it appears to be intertesticular. The position of the ovary in S. odeningi n. comb. appears to be intertesticular forming a triangle with the testes (Cyclocoelinae), the genital pore is near the posterior end of the pharynx (postpharyngeal) and the vitelline fields are not confluent posteriorly, placing it in Selfcoelum . No oral or ventral sucker described—Dubois (1965).
