Description
Summary:Criconemal spec. (Fig. 13 C). Two juveniles. Dimensions: L = 0. 16 - 0.19 mm; a = 8 -10; b = 2.5-2.6; R = 70-71; spear = 33- 38 jx. Annules with eight alternating rows of broad, rounded scales. This would point rather to the genus Hemicriconemoides (see de Grisse & Loof, 1965) but this is a mainly tropical genus and in the Spitzbergen specimens head shape is more reminiscent of Criconema and Nothocriconema. Tail tapering, acute. Sample 27. Published as part of P. A. A. LOOF, 1971, FREELIVING AND PLANT PARASITIC NEMATODES FROM SPITZBERGEN, COLLECTED BY MR. H. VAN ROSSEN, pp. 1-86 in Mededelingen Landbouwhogeschool Wageningen 71 on page 45, DOI:10.5281/zenodo.8152982
