Abstract

A new species of nematodes from the genus Mukhina Ozdikmen, 2010 (= Brevistoma Mukhina, 1981 non Brevistoma Tjeder, 1967) is described based on the leaf samples of Aralia elata and soil samples collected in the Khasansky District (Primorsky Region). Mukhina orientalis Mukhina sp. n. differs from the single known species of the genus, M. elegans (Mukhina, 1981), in body length (420–468 μm), incisura number in the lateral field (3), a shorter seminal receptacle and a plicate tail with a subulate end. The paper provides the diagnosis of the genus Mukhina.
