Abstract

In order to study spiral nematodes of citrus trees in Khuzestan province of Iran, 115 soil and root samples were collected during summer and autumn of 2016 and 2017. Nematodes were extracted and transferred into glycerin. The permanent slides were prepared. The nematodes were identified under light microscopy and drawing tube based on morphological and morphometrical characters. In this study, 14 species of genus Helicotylenchus were identified. Among them H. morassi, H. urobelus, H. angularis, H. thornei and H. pisi are new for Iranian nematofauna.
