Abstract
Bursaphelenchus parapinasteriis redescribed morphologically and with new molecular characterisation. It was isolated from a deadPinus thunbergiion Changgang Mountain, Zhoushan Islands, Zhejiang Province, China. Detailed morphology of the spicule, female gonad, hemizonid position, arrangement of male caudal papillae, and female tail terminus shape are documented. The ITS-RFLP patterns and the ITS1/2, partial 28S D2-D3 and partial 18S gene sequences were characterised. The phylogenetic analyses revealed thatB. parapinasteribelongs to thehofmanni-groupsensuBraasch and is close toB. anamurius,B. hofmanni,B. mazandaranense,B. paracorneolus,B. pinasteriandB. ulmophilus. A diagnostic key to species of thehofmanni-group is presented.
