| Abstract: | An extensive survey of longidorids in Argentina resulted in the collection of numerous populations pertaining to various species of Xiphidorus. Their study provides additional information on each of them and thus enlarges our knowledge of intraspecific variation. Nematodes studied are: X. amazonensis, X. balcarceanus, X. saladillensis, X. yepesara, X. achalae, and X. minor. X. tucumanensis is proposed as a junior synonym of X. balcarceanus and X. parthenus as a subspecies, X. yepesara parthenus n. grad., besides X. yepesara yepesara. A key to the species and subspecies is given. |
