Abstract
Summary Tobriloides sinensis sp. n. is described from Shanxi province, China. It is characterised by relatively long body (1620-1935 m), two subventral teeth posterior to dorsal tooth, a short pharynx (b = 4.2-5.0), cardia three times longer than wide (91-98 μ m long and 30-37 μ m wide), female reproductive system amphidelphic, the vulva situated slightly posterior to mid-body (V = 59.0-69.9), and the tail relatively short (c = 8.4-9.7 and c′ = 4.6-5.7). The phylogenetic relationships of the new species were analysed using data from the near full length small subunit (SSU) and D2-D3 segments of large subunit (LSU) of rRNA genes. The status of T. sinensis sp. n. is discussed based on both morphological and molecular characteristics.
期刊介绍:
Nematology is an international journal for the publication of all aspects of nematological research (with the exception of vertebrate parasitology), from molecular biology to field studies. Papers on nematode parasites of arthropods, and on soil free-living nematodes, and on interactions of these and other organisms, are particularly welcome. Research on fresh water and marine nematodes is also considered when the observations are of more general interest.
Nematology publishes full research papers, short communications, Forum articles (which permit an author to express a view on current or fundamental subjects), perspectives on nematology, and reviews of books and other media.
