Cuticle ultrastructure of Criconemella curvata and C. sphaerocephala females is presented; males were available only in the second species. Ultrathin sections revealed three major zones: cortical, median, and basal. The cortical zone in the females consists of an external and internal layer. In C. curvata the external layer is trilaminate and at each annule it is covered by a multilayered cap. ...

The form of the cephalic disc and its taxonomic significance at the species level in the genus Discocriconemella De Grisse &Loof, 1965 is discussed. By light (LM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), four groups of disc configurations in females and juveniles are distinguishable. The disc is either round with an uninterrupted margin (group 1), has a deep dorsal and ventral indentation (group...
