Abstract
Abstract. Qudsialemellus keralaensis, a new genus and species of belondirid nematode is described and illustrated from the tropical rain forests of Western Ghats, India. The new genus is characterized by its rounded and continuous lip region; odontostyle attenuated with solid appearing tip; odontophore with distinct basal flanges; spiral muscular sheath around the expanded part of pharynx; spathulate cardia; female genital system mono-opisthodelpic; vulva transverse; tail long filiform, similar in both sexes; male with dorylaimoid spicules and two spaced ventromedian supplements. It comes close to the genera Qudsiella Jairajpuri, 1967, Paraqudsiella Siddiqi, 1981 and Durinemella Andrássy, 2009 belonging to the subfamily Swangeriinae Jairajpuri, 1964 but distinctly differs from all the three genera in the presence of a thick walled odontostyle with its tip almost solid appearing and odontophore with prominent basal flanges.
