“…Small subunit (SSU) rDNA has been widely used for studies of nematode phylogenetic analysis, including studies within the main nematode clades (Fitch, 1997;Van Megen et al, 2009;Bhadury et al, 2010;Blanco et al, 2012;Callejón et al, 2013;Singh et al, 2013;Zhang et al, 2014). The present study's goal was to evaluate the molecular phylogeny of the nematodes by using sequences of the 18S ribosomal gene.…”

A phylogenetic study of nematode species belonging to Nematoda: Oxyurida from India has been conducted using molecular characters. Molecular marker 18S rRNA (18S) from the nuclear gene was tested and analyses were conducted using the minimum evolution, maximum parsimony, and maximum likelihood methods. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that both of the species Hammerschmidtiella indicus and Thelandros scleratus clustered as sister species with species of Thelastoma and Leidynema, and Parapharyngodon, respectively. Interestingly, the results confirm the taxonomic status of H. indicus and T. scleratus from India.

“…The genus Hammerschmidtiella was initially marked as amphidelphic Chitwood (1932), but in recent studies, they clearly described the reproductive system of H. diesingi as didelphic-prodelphic Shah (2007); Blanco et al (2012). Some measurements of H. diesingi Females were recently found in cockroaches, such as buccal cavity length, isthmus length and vulva from the anterior end were much higher than the values known for the species.…”

Journal of Medical Entomology and Parasitology is one of the series issued quarterly by the Egyptian Academic Journal of Biological Sciences. It is an important specialist journal covering the latest advances in that subject. It publishes original research and review papers on all aspects of basic and applied medical entomology, parasitology and host-parasite relationships, including the latest discoveries in parasite biochemistry, molecular biology, genetics, ecology and epidemiology in the content of the biological, medical entomology and veterinary sciences. In addition to that, the journal promotes research on the impact of living organisms on their environment with emphasis on subjects such a resource, depletion, pollution, biodiversity, ecosystem…..etc. www.eajbs.eg.net Provided for non-commercial research and education use.

“…In addition, Eurycotis floridana (Florida woods cockroach), Blaberus atropos, Hormetica scrobiculata, Blaptica sp. and Gromphadorhina portentosa (Madagascar hissing cockroach) were recently imported to Japan as pets or pet reptile foods, and also reported as L. appendiculata hosts (Poinar 1975;Blanco et al 2012). Native habitats of these species (E. floridana, B. atropos, H. scrobiculata and Blaptica sp.)…”

“…Several parasitic nematode species sometimes co-infect individual cockroaches; for example, nematodes isolated from American cockroaches settling in several countries were Thelastoma bulhoesi, T. periplaneticola, Hammerschmidtiella diesingi, Leidynema appendiculata (Ozawa and Hasegawa unpublished data;Chitwood 1932;Dobrovolny and Ackert 1934;Adamson and Noble 1993;Connor and Adamson 1998;Shah 2007;Blanco et al 2012). Therefore, these cockroaches have been moved globally with the help of humans along with their nematode parasites.…”

The smokybrown cockroach Periplaneta fuliginosa has spread all over the world, and is now one of the most undesired invasive alien pests in Japan. Because cockroaches are generally infected by thelastomatid nematodes, they are being distributed around the world with their parasitic nematodes. Nothing is known about parasitic nematode species in P. fuliginosa differences, or similarity of the parasite's population structures between the different countries of the host cockroaches. Here we investigated the P. fuliginosa invasive to Japan and found that 100% of individuals were infected with one nematode species. According to the morphology and the sequence of the D2/D3 expansion segment of the 28S ribosomal RNA gene, we identified the parasite as Leidynema appendiculata. This nematode reproduced by haplodiploidy and its developmental timing under various conditions is quite divergent. Their population in the hindgut of P. fuliginosa was controlled with a few adult females and a male. This is the first report of the thelastomatid nematode isolated from the smokybrown cockroach, and is the basis for our future research examining the origin, distribution route and immigration history of the cockroach and the impact of L. appendiculata on native Japanese cockroach species.
