Zoosystematica Rossica, 2022 A new nematomorph species, Chordodes guineensis sp. n., is described from Kankan, Guinea. It is distinguished from other Chordodes species in the structures of the areolar layer of cuticle. Presumably, insects of the order Orthoptera are the natural hosts of Ch. guineensis sp. n.
