Abstract

The genus Hemicaloosia is one of two genera belonging to the family Caloosiinae Siddiqi, 1980. Species in this genus are obligate ectoparasites of plants with only ten described species worldwide. In this study, we provide the first report of a Hemicaloosia species from Vietnam and compare it to other Hemicaloosia species from the world using morphology, morphometrics, Cluster analysis, and MDS analysis. All comparisons clearly indicate that our nematode population belongs to H. guangzhouensis. Our study provided more measurement indices to support the diagnosis of H. guangzhouensis, suggested the synonymisation of H. vagisclera, H. delpradi, and H. americanae, and revealed two incorrect identifications (including the population of Caloosia shorai from India and the population of H. luci from Brazil). Besides, this is also the first report of the genus Hemicaloosia in Vietnam.
