This is an attempt for documenting all plant-parasitic nematode species reported from Iran during 2017 to 2020, including 357 species of 84 genera and 18 families of plant¿parasitic nematodes (Tylenchomorpha, Longidoridae and Trichodoridae) associated with different plants. The list of species, further information on their morphometrics, references to full or partial descriptions, associated plants, geographical distribution, and some taxonomic remarks are provided. 12 Iranian nematologists (Reza Ghaderi, Esmaeil Miraeiz, Manouchehr Hosseinvand, Kobra Hashemi, Parisa Jalalinasab, Abbas Mokaram Hesar, Hossein Mirababaei Karani, Ali Eskandari, Mehrab Esmaeili, Kourosh Azizi, Simin Ansari, and Samira Fadakar) have contributed to the different chapters of the book.

This book contains full descriptions of cystoid nematodes (32 species which in them female body does not turn into a hard-walled cyst), belonging to 10 genera in the subfamilies Ataloderinae and Meloidoderinae (Tylenchida/Tylenchomorpha) reported from everywhere in the world. They are plant parasites living in the soil or in plant roots. They induce feeding sites in their host tissues and cause significant economic loss. This book is amply illustrated with line drawings and light photographs based on microscopic and sub-microscopic observations.
