Abstract
Caputonchus capitatus n. gen., n. sp., Mulveyellus n. gen., Nigronchus parvus n. gen., n. sp., Truxonchus n. gen., Actus nanurus n. sp. and Crassibucca colombica n. sp. are described. Truxon-chus confundus n. nom. is proposed as a replacement name for Anatonchus paralleni Jairajpuri & Khan, 1982 which is considered nomen nudum. Mulveyellus antedontus (Mulvey, 1963) n. comb., M. antedontoides (Coetze, 1967) n. comb., M. jairi (Lordello, 1959) n. comb, (type-species), M. longicaudatus (Baqri, Baqri & Jairajpuri, 1978) n. comb., M. monhystera (Cobb, 1971) n. comb, and M. vorax (Cobb, 1971) n. comb, are proposed for species previously under lotonchus or Mononchus. Truxonchus alleni (Mulvey, 1961) n. comb., T. dolichwus (Ditlevsen, 1911) n. comb., T. mulveyi (Altherr, 1968) n. comb, and T. subacutus (Mulvey, 1961) n. comb, (type-species) are proposed for species previously under Anatonchus. Four new genera and four new species of the order Mononchida are described in this paper. The nematodes were fixed in 3-5% formaldehyde solution, processed through warm lactophenol and mounted in dehydrated glycerin.
