Swimming in water we observed a 10cm long, very thin (probably no more than 1mm thick), worm like creature. It swam in a snake like fashion and came up for air every 30 sec or so. Head was very small and could not make out much

Thin River wormy thing
Very thin worm type thing, just thicker than a pin, approx 8cm long. Seen 'swimming' swaying under water. Was not sure it it was even alive or not and too small to make out any features. Looks like an old Erica flower stuck to it. Picked it up and it was a still, put it back in water and it swam against current, like an eel type movement.

Mermis nigrescensObservador
steven_evansDescrição
Mermis nigrescens (Nematoda: Mermithidae) a parasitic nematode of the European Earwig Forficula auricularia (Dermaptera: Forficulidae). Image is of an adult female, the sex evident by the presence of the brownish string of eggs within the transparent body. Following substantial rain the female seeks a plant high point and lays its eggs on leaf tips. Species was identified through genetic analysis for a published paper titled: Morphological and molecular characterisation of Mermis nigrescens Dujardin, 1842 (Nematoda: Mermithidae) parasitising the European earwig (Dermaptera : Forficulidae) in New Zealand.
