Notes

Eutylenchus excretorius n. sp. is described and illustrated from Quebec, Canada. The new species differs from E. vitiensis by having stylet lengths of 20-22 µm, a more posterior excretory pore (94-105 µm from head) located posterior to the hemizonid in the posterior half of the isthmus, and by the presence of an elevated disc-like vulval area. A key to the genera and species of Atylenchidae is also provided.
