contents Morphological and molecular characterization of sp. nov. (Nematoda: Ascaridoidea) from nsis (Crocodilian: Alligatoridae). Zhao, Jinhong Marisa, Tellez Shuai, Yujun Tu, Genjun Zhou, Yongkang Yi, Pingsi Xu, Zengxiang Kuris, Armand Wu, Xiaobing sp. nov. is a novel species belonging to the genus (Nematoda: Heterocheilidae). It was detected in the stomach of a carcass of a Chinese alligator ( Fauvel, 1879; Crocodilian: Alligatoridae) at the National Nature Reserve of China Alligator, Anhui Province, China. This study investigated the morphological and molecular characteristics of the isolated sp. nov. Herein, light and scanning electron microscopy, DNA sequencing, and histological analyses were performed for sp. nov. Notably, microscopy revealed novel taxonomic features of sp. nov. Additionally, the sequences of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS), cytochrome oxidase I (COI), and small subunit DNA (18S) segments of sp. nov. were 892, 655, and 885 bp, respectively. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study providing molecular data showing the affiliation of this species with the family Heterocheilidae. The histological analysis revealed the pathology of sp. nov. infection in . Overall, the findings of this study provide novel geographic and infection records of sp. nov., with it being added to nematode species that infect crocodiles.
