Plant Parasitic Nematodes From the Solomon Islands With a Description of Boleodorus Solomonensis

Plant Parasitic Nematodes From the Solomon Islands With a Description of Boleodorus Solomonensis PLANT PARASITIC NEMATODES FROM THE SOLOMON ISLANDS WITH A DESCRIPTION OF BOLEODORUS SOLOMONENSIS BY W. YE and E. GERAERT Department of Morphology, Systematics and Ecology, Gent University, K.L. Ledeganckstraat 35, B-9000, Gent, Belgium Morphology and taxonomy of 14 species in 11 genera of plant parasitic nematodes collected from the Solomon Islands, are presented and discussed. Besides Eutylenchus vitiensis, Cepha- lenchus daisuce, Helicotylenchus erythrinae, H. hydrophilus, Criconema longulum, Ogma decalin- eatum, O. melanesicum, Discocriconemella limitanea, D. mauritiensis, Hemicriconemoides stric- tathecatus, Hemicycliophora litoralis, Xiphinema ensiculiferum and Aphelenchus isomerus, an un- described species of Boleodorus was found, which is described here.
