Abstract

Illustrated description of two new free-living nematodes species, Mononchus caudatus sp. nov. and Mononchus amplus sp. nov., are given. Bouth of species were found in Lake Baikal. M. caudatus sp. nov. differs from similar species M. agilis Gagarin, Mataphonov, 2004 and M. tajmiris Gagarin, 1991 in the body size, length of tail, buccal cavity size, spicules size and supplements number. M. amplus sp. nov. differs from similar species, M. superbus Mulvey, 1978 by longer thinner body, longer and slender tail, vulva disposition and shorter gubernaculum.
