Hmm... Sheath, shorter headspace, nuclei not quite going to the end of tail. I'd say it's Wuchereria. In a lower power view I'd expect it's a big worm! (not like those puny Mansonellas!)
HAs to be Brugia malayi with that rosy pink sheath. I vote BM. :)
i vote for W.bancrofti b/c the nuclei do not extend to the very end of the tail and it's about 10 microns wide overall.
