Phylogenetic relationships within many lineages of the phylum Nematoda remain
unresolved, despite numerous morphology-based and molecular analyses. We performed …

Background Nematodes are among the most diverse and abundant metazoans on Earth, but
research on them has been biased toward parasitic taxa and model organisms. Free-living …

Simple Summary New technological advancements often radically change our views on the
world. Sequencing of DNA and use of it to reconstruct the evolution of organisms was an …

Background Soil nematodes are one of the most important terrestrial faunal groups in
Antarctica, as they are a major component of soil micro-food webs. Despite their crucial role …

The family Haliplectidae is reported from Iran for the first time and Haliplectus iranicus sp. n.,
from a mangrove forest in the Persian Gulf, is described. The new species is characterised …

We present an updated list of terrestrial and freshwater nematodes from all regions of the
Arctic, for which records of properly identified nematode species are available: Svalbard …

A new free-living marine nematode species of the genus Leptolaimus belonging to the
family Laptolaimidae was collected from intertidal sediments of the Shenzhen Mangrove …

The phylogenetic position of Paramicrolaimidae Lorenzen, 1981, a rare group of marine free-
living nematodes, has been the subject of debate due to the unique morphology of the …

A new nematode species, Latronema dyngi sp. nov., is described from Skagerrak off the
west coast of Sweden with the type locality near Dyngö island. Latronema dyngi sp. nov. is …

Taxonomic resolution is a critical component of biodiversity assessments. In this case study,
we examined a single taxon within a larger study of nematode diversity to evaluate the …
