Taxonomic notes on Hemicycliophora de Man (nematoda: Hemicycliophoridae)

Abstract

The genus Hemicycliophora de Man was revised by Brzeski (1974) who included 60 valid species. Since the publication of his paper 10 new species have been described, with another described here. Another important contribution to the taxonomy of the genus is that of Eroshenko (1976) in which he lists 77 species, but does not recognize the synonyms proposed by Brzeski (1974). The measurements and symbols used in this paper are the same as those proposed by Brzeski (1974).
