Abstract

Codes are given for eleven Xiphinema species described since the new polytomous key (Loof & Luc, 1990) was submitted plus one species described earlier but which had not come to the authors' notice. Differences from related species are given. X. ilyasi Ahmad & Baqri, 1987 is considered a junior synonym of X. ensiculiferum (Cobb, 1893) Thorne, 1937. X. clavatum Heyns, 1965 is transferred from Group 8 to Group 5. The authors agree that X. attorodorum Luc, 1961 is a junior synonym of X. parasetariae Luc, 1958.
