'Cralosophus is a monotypic genus of nematode in the family Cosmocercidae; the sole member is Cralosophus jackforsteriensis. The genus and the species were first described by Rhys A. Costellow in June 2020. It was isolated from the gut of a species of bee (Megachile rotundata), and discovered in Kingston-upon-Hull in England. It was named after a teacher in his school who sadly passed away in 2002. Two other specimens were found inside a horse-chestnut leaf miner moth, subspecies aesculi, and a housefly, subspecies musca.
