Aphelenchoides paranechaleos Hooper & Ibrahim, 1994

A. paranechaleos was extracted from stems of rice in Vietnam and, like A. nechaleos , mistakenly thought to be A. besseyi ( Hooper & Ibrahim 1994) . It is also similar to A. nechaleos but their populations are unable to interbreed ( Hooper & Ibrahim 1994). According to our data A. nechaleos , A. paranechaleos , A. arachidis and A. besseyi are the only four species in this genus considered as plant-parasites of rice; further surveys are needed to confirm A. bicaudatus' parasitism on this crop ( Escuer & Bello 2000; Jen et al. 2012) ( Fig. 3 ).
