| Summary: | Fourteen soil-inhabiting species of nematodes, including two new species, are recorded from the Canadian high Arctic. Microlaimus arcticus n. sp. and Hofmaenneria hazenensis n. sp., are described and illustrated. Two genera, Cylindrolaimus and Achromadora, are revised. Most of the recorded species are illustrated and measurements presented. Taxonomic keys to species in the genera Bastiania, Achromadora, Microlaimus, and Trischistoma are presented. The taxonomic position of the genus Nannonchus Cobb, 1913 is discussed. |
