Abstract

Nematodes are the most specifically diversified group next to insect. To get acknowledge of role of nematodes in biodiversity a sound knowledge and understanding of its taxonomy together with details of its biology is essential. Because of difficulties in studying fish nematodes, associated with their morphological and biological peculiarities, most species of these parasites are poorly known The present study is one step ahead to disclose the existence of new species of Pseudoproleptus collected from fresh water fish Notopterusnotopterus (Pallas) from U.P.
