Title: New Host and Geographical Records of Nematode-Parasitic Bacteria of the Pasteuria Penetrans Group
Abstract: Forty-six genera and identified species of soil nematodes arc recorded as hosts of bacteria of the Pasteuria penetrans group for the first time. Twenty-two of the genera and members of the orders Monhysterida and Chromadorida were previously not known as hosts. The number of published nematode hosts of Pasteuria has now increased to a total of 205 belonging to 96 genera from ten orders. New geographical Pasteuria records of known hosts are also reported. The bacterial parasite of nematodes is presently known from 51 countries worldwide.
