Abstract
Hexamermis zirabi sp. n., recovered from a natural habitat of Mazandaran province, north of Iran, is described based on morphological and molecular data. The new species is characterized by its six cephalic papillae; cuticle with distinct cross fibers; conoid or sharply tapered head; mouth terminal; six hypodermal cords; J-shaped vagina oriented to the anterior end of body; uterus with Z-organs or sclerotized bodies; tail similar in both sexes and bluntly rounded; spicules paired, separate, slightly curved, shorter than body width at cloaca, with rounded tip; and male genital papillae arranged in five rows. In addition to the morphological study, molecular phylogenetic analyses using a partial large subunit (28S D2-D3) were also performed, and the new species formed a highly supported (1.00% Bayesian posterior probability (BPP)) clade with Hexamermis popilliae.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
