Abstract:
Two undescribed species of the family Dolichodoridae were collected and described herein. Dolichorhynchus tuberosus n. sp. is closely related to D. phaseoli (Sethi & Swarup, 1968) Mulk & Jairajpuri 1974 and D. nigericus Mulk & Jairajpuri, 1974 because of the presence of notched bursa in males, but can be distinguished from D. phaseoli by having a longer tail, anterior vulva more longitudinal ridges, shape of basal knobs and number of tail annules. From D. nigericus it differs in smaller body width, number of longitudinal ridges, shape of basal knobs, structure of excretory pore and shape of tail terminus. Scutylenchus quettensis n. sp. is closely related to S. koreanus (Choi & Geraert, 1971) Siddiqi, 1979 and S. Cylindricaudatus (Ivanova, 1968) Siddiqi 1979, but it differs from both these species in 'c' value, position of vulva and spear length.
