E. vermicularis
Adult worm of Enterobius vermicularis. The ala / spines on the surface are helpful in ID.
Enterobius - the lateral 'spines' give it away - and i believe i am correct in saying these are not actually spines but lateral ridges (alae) that run the length of the worms body?
I agree. This is pinworm (Enterobius vermicularis).
