(Brill, 2016)
Steinernema nguyeni n. sp. was recovered by baiting from beneath an Olea africana tree in South Africa. The combination of morphological and molecular features suggests that S. nguyeni n. sp. is a member of the ...
Morphological and molecular studies on Aphelenchoides arachidis Bos, 1977 (Tylenchina: Aphelenchoididae) from groundnuts in South Africa
(Brill Academic Publishers, 2015)
Aphelenchoides arachidis is reported for the first time from South Africa and for the fourth time outside Nigeria. The A. arachidis-infested pods from South Africa showed the following symptoms: small seeds with the testa ...
Morphological and molecular characterisation of one new and several known species of the reniform nematode, RotylenchulusLinford & Oliveira, 1940 (Hoplolaimidae: Rotylenchulinae), and a phylogeny of the genus
(Brill, 2016)
The reniform nematodes of the genus Rotylenchulus are semi-endoparasites of numerous herbaceous and woody plant roots and are mainly distributed in tropical and subtropical regions. In this study, we provide morphological ...
Taxonomic revision and morphological cladistics analysis of the diatom genus Anorthoneis (Cocconeidaceae), with description of Anorthoneis arthus-bertrandii sp. nov.
(Magnolia Press, 2018)
We present here an ultrastructure-based revision of the diatom genus Anorthoneis using both light (LM) and electron microscopy (SEM). The original slides and type material of all known Anorthoneis species were analysed and ...
Characterisation of some Scutellonema species (Tylenchida: Hoplolaimidae) occurring in Botswana, South Africa, Costa Rica and the USA, with description of S. clavicaudatum sp. n. and a molecular phylogeny of the genus
(Brill, 2017)
The genus Scutellonema contains more than 40 species of spiral nematodes with enlarged phasmids called scutella. In this
study, we provide morphological and molecular characterisation of S. clavicaudatum sp. n., S. ...
Description of Stegelletina lingulata sp. n. (Nematoda, Rhabditida, Cephalobidae) from xeric environments in Iran

A new species belonging to the genus Stegelletina, S. lingulata sp. n., is described from xeric natural areas from Iran. It is characterized by having small body (0.51–0.69 mm in females and 0.45–0.64 mm in males), cuticle ...
Steinernema fabii n. sp. (Rhabditida: Steinernematidae), a new entomopathogenic nematode from South Africa
(Brill, 2016)
A new species of entomopathogenic nematode, Steinernema fabii n. sp., was isolated by trapping with wax moth (Galleria mellonella) larvae from soil in an Acacia mearnsii plantation in the Mpumalanga province of South Africa. ...
Studies on the morphology of Macrolaimus arboreus Truskova & Eroshenko, 1977 (Rhabditida: Chambersiellidae) from Iran
(Brill, 2018)
A population of Macrolaimus arboreus was collected from the rhizosphere of pine in Iran. This population of M. arboreus is characterised by the body length, 800-1010 μm in females, lip region with six seta-like papillae ...
