Seven species of Tylenchida from Brazil with description of a new species (Nematoda: tylenchoidea)

Abstract

This paper deals with seven species belonging to the genera Coslenchus, Boleodorus, Tylenchorhynchus, Pratylenchus, Dolichodorus and Neodolichodorus. A new species Neodolichodorus spec. is described but as we have only one female this species is not named; Neodolichodorus spec. is closely related to N. leiocephalus Doucet, 1981 but it can be distinguished by head shape, smaller stylet (66 p.m vs. 80·99 p.m), position of excretory pore and by the shape of terminal bulb. Two species reported for the first time since their original descriptions are Dolichodorus minor Loof et Sharma, 1975 and Tylel1chorhvI1chus queirozi Monteiro et Lordello, 1976.
