Abstract: The article describes Marionina scintillans sp. n., a new enchytraeid species found in the green houses of the Botanical Garden of the Eötvös Loránd University Budapest and the Budapest Zoo and Botanical Garden as a result of a comprehensive investigation. This very small new species differs from all the Marionina species – which have 1–2 chaetae in all ventral chaetal bundles in the absence of the third pharyngeal glands and in the existence of a pair of small secondary (postseptal) pharyngeal glands in VI close to 5/6 and in a peculiar nephridial degeneration.
