Jabbari H, Niknam G, Fallahi A (2023) First report of Proleptonchus brevisaccus (Nematoda: Leptonchida) from Iran. Plant Pathology Science 12(2):86-94.
Abstract: Nematodes are vermiform, with wide host range and geographical distribution, diverse and species-rich multicellular animals, which form a separate phylum in the kingdom of animals with the ability of living and surviving in all habitats. In order to identification of nematodes fauna of Astara- Mishe Sui forest – Gilan province, Iran, several soil samples were collected from sandy areas around a local river during 2014. The nematodes were extracted from samples by usual methods of nematology and after killing and fixing the nematodes were transferred to pure glycerin. Permanent microscopic slides of the nematodes were prepared and their morphological and morphometric characteristics examined using an optical microscope. Among the different feeding groups of nematodes, a population of the family Leptonchidae and the genus Proleptonchus was also obtained. The main character of the genus is having a flask-shaped cheilostome. Using valid references and identification keys, the population was identified as P. brevisaccus. This species belongs to the members of the genus that have short post vulval sac. Based on available literature, P. brevisaccus is a new record for the nematode fauna of Iran and its male is reported and described for the first time.
