I am student and need some images of nematode infested crops in particularly temperate regions, I have tried looking for it but was unsuccessful. Can anyone please help me??

Hello!

I am an entomologist working with collaborators on wetland restoration work. I am interested in cataloging the various microbes and invertebrates in the wetland we are working on and have been collecting water and sediment samples from the wetland. I've been viewing them and recording images and video of the various organisms present. I've found a diverse array of organisms almost all of which I have been able to identify. However, this one worm has stumped me. I consulted with a nematologist in our department who has never seen anything like it. I've found many oligochaete worms in my samples, but I can't find anything online that looks and acts like this does. I initially thought it might be a tubifex worm given that it appears to have hemoglobin. However, I can't find any examples of oligochaetes with the long chaete it has, which it flaps like wings. If anyone has any ideas it would be very helpful. Thanks much!

Mystery Worm

Can anyone help me try to identify this nematode? We found it doing an unrelated experiment but I was just curious what it was. This was found in a wet slide made from a magnolia leaf dyed with methylene blue, the magnolia leaf was sourced in Georgia a little southeast of Atlanta. I believe this magnification was 1000X if that is helpful at all. I apologize the picture isn't any better, I wasn't the one to take it.

Is there any free online references for identification the plant parasitic nematodes microscopically

Hello, I have some rat tailed maggots that have some strange, wormlike things that can move coming out of their butts. Are there nematodes that can parasitize these bugs?

Are there any nematologists/ nematology expert who can help me in identifying nematodes to their genus level from photos? I need help for my thesis

I recently played out some rotten onions onto potato dextrose agar and I noticed that the plate is crawling with nematodes, alongside the fungal growths. What is the best way to extract the nematodes from the plate?

Hi there! I am a snail keeper, and have had to deal with my snails getting infested with nematodes in the past. Does anyone have affordable microscope recommendations so I can spot potential infestations within my snails? Just now is the second time within 3 years of my snails getting infested, and sending fecal samples to laboratories is pretty pricey when you have to keep track of 8 snails :(

I appreciate any help!
