Limnognathia maerski, class Micrognathozoa, so far known only from Arctic Greenland, is reported from the subantarctic Crozet Islands. Fine morphology of the trophi is redescribed using scanning electron microscopy. Results show that the trophi are composed of the same functional units, i.e. incus, paired mallei and epipharynx, as found in Rotifera Monogononta. The zoogeography of the species is briefly discussed.
