Preliminary list of Tylenchida (Nematoda) associated with olive in the Black Sea and the Mediterranean regions of Turkey

Abstract

In a nematode survey of Tylenchida carried out in olive orchards in northern (The Black Sea Region) and southern (The Mediterranean Region) of Turkey 32 species were determined belonging to 23 genera of eight families within the superfamilies Tylenchoidea, Dolichodoroidea, Hoplolaimoidea, Tylenchuloidea, Criconematoidea, Hemicycliophoroidea and Anguinoidea. Each of them constitute new records on olive in Turkey and Tylenchorhynchus penniseti and Paratylenchus arculatus are reported for the first time in the nematofauna of Turkey.
