Aspidoderid nematodes from bolivian armadillos, with the description of a new species of Lauroia (Heterakoidea: Aspidoderidae).

Aspidoderidae from North America, with the description of a new species of Aspidodera (Nematoda: Heterakoidea).

Aspidodera sogandaresi n. sp. (Heterakoidea: Aspidoderidae) from Dasypus novemcinctus Linnaeus, 1758 is herein described. This nematode occurs in armadillos from as far south as the canal zone of Panama, north through central Mexico, and into the southern United States. Previously identified as Aspidodera fasciata (Schneider, 1866), this new species has blunt projections on the lips and lateral...

Phyletic Coevolution between Subterranean Rodents of the Genus Ctenomys (Rodentia: Hystricognathi) and Nematodes of the Genus Paraspidodera (Heterakoidea: Aspidoderidae) in the Neotropics: Temporal and Evolutionary Implications

Four events of host switching in Aspidoderidae (Nematoda) involve convergent lineages of mammals.

The Great American Interchange resulted in the mixing of faunistic groups with different origins and evolutionary trajectories that underwent rapid diversification in North and South America. As a result, groups of animals of recent arrival converged into similar habits and formed ecological guilds with some of the endemics. We present a reconstruction of the evolutionary events in Aspidoderida...

Nematodes of amphibians from Java, Indonesia, with a description of <br />new species, Meteterakis wonosoboensis n. sp. (Nematoda : Heterakoidea).

During a survey on the parasites of amphibians of Indonesia, toads (30 Bufo melanostictus) and 246 frogs (213 Fejervarya cancrivora, 11 F. limnocharis, 22 Rana macrodon from West Java and 68 F. cancrivora from Central Java) were examined for parasitic nematodes. Three species of nematodes were found and described, i.e. Meteterakis wonosoboensis n. sp. from Fejervaria cancrivora; Meteterakis jap...

بررسی تعدادی از گونه‌های جنس Longidorus در ایران

Plant parasitic nematodes of Dorylaimida occur only in the Longidoridae. Longidorus is one of important genera in this family, which it,s species are parasite on many plants and act as a vector for some of plant viruses. From 1999 to 2001, more than 250 soil samples were collected from several localities of Iran. Nematodes were extracted, fixed (De Grisse, 1969) and mounted on glass slides in d...
