초록/요약
The genus Acrobeloides (Cobb, 1924) Thorne, 1937 are bacterial feeders and are one of the most abundant and widely distributed nematode groups in various terrestrial environments. Based on morphological and morphometric analyses, we found two Acrobeloides species reported in Korea for the first time: A. bodenheimeri (Steiner, 1936) Thorne, 1937 and A. tricornis (Throne, 1925) Thorne, 1937. These species exhibit morphological characters concordant with typical features of the genus Acrobeloides, such as a fusiform pharyngeal corpus with swollen metacorpus and lateral incisures extending to the tail terminus. However, A. bodenheimeri is distinguished from other acrobeloids by having its low and rounded labial probolae, distinct post-uterine sac and five lateral incisures. Acrobeloides tricornis is distinguished from its congeners by the following characteristics: its high labial probolae with acuate termini, inconspicuous postuterine sac and five lateral incisures. Morphological characters and their measurements, and illustrations of A. bodenheimeri and A. tricornis are described in this study.
