Abstract

Aphelenchoides manipurensis sp. nov. was collected from two different localities of Manipur. Though the specimens collected from two different areas show some variations in their morphology and morphometric data, it was taken as the same species due to similarities in many characters. A. manipurensis sp. nov. had females with L = 294.1–461.91 µm, a = 24.28–38.14, b = 6.3–8.65, b′ = 3.61–4.68, c = 12.47–16.46, c′ = 3–4.25, stylet = 10.38–13.84 µm, V = 68.88–71.69, post uterine sac = 25.98–53.63 µm long and two lateral lines. Males were common with spicule of 10.38–17.3 µm. Mucro were present in both sexes. Species presented with illustrations and morphometrics.
