Heterorhabditis caligo n. sp. (Rhabditida: Heterorhabditidae): A New Entomopathogenic Nematode from Pichilemu Sand Dunes, Chile [PDF]

Journal of Nematology
During a survey of the nematode biodiversity in the Petrel wetland (central Chile), a population of Heterorhabditis sp. was found in the coastal dune samples. Morphological, morphometric, and molecular studies indicated that this nematode belonged to the
