  • Title: A new species of Heterorhabditis from the Hawaiian Islands.
    Author: Gardner SL, Stock SP, Kaya HK.
    Journal: J Parasitol; 1994 Feb; 80(1):100-6. PubMed ID: 8308642.
    Abstract:
    A new species of nematode of the genus Heterorhabditis (Nemata: Heterorhabditidae) was found during a survey of the soil entomopathogenic nematode fauna of the Hawaiian Islands. Heterorhabditis hawaiiensis sp. n. can be separated from all other species of Heterorhabditis by the length of the infective juvenile and the morphological characters of the spicules, gubernaculum, and bursa. Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) fragment analysis showed that this species also has a distinct genetic pattern in RAPD bands relative to the other 6 species or isolates of Heterorhabditis that were compared.
