Hello Rogelio,

the first animal is looking like a member of the Gastrotricha (Chaetonotus?).

Greetings

Thank you, I agree with you it looks like Chaetonotus.

Hi,

I found the ID for the seconf specimen, it is Nassula. The nasse of microtubular rods can be seen on this first picture of this specimen.
