Abstract: Devibursaphelenchus hunanensis isolated from Pinus massoniana is redescribed. The identification features are as follows: three incisures in the lateral field; relatively long stylet (about 15-20 μm and 18-22 μm for males and females) with wide lumen and without basal knobs and vulva flap, and very short postuterine sac. Female rectum and anus indistinct or disappear. The spicules are in medium size, 16-19 μm long in chord, and the arcuate with a terminal cucullus. There is a distinct bursa flap in ventral view. D.hananensis is predatory. The partial SSU region, the ITS1/2 region, the D2D3 LSU region of rDNA and partial mtCOI gene were sequenced and deposited in the GenBank database. With the morphological and molecular data, the isolate was compared with type specimens of D. hunanensis and D. eproctatus. Their features are highly consistent, thus D. hunanensis and D. eproctatus is regarded as synonymous of D. hunanensis.

Key words: morphology, morphometrics, phylogeny, molecular, taxonomy, predatory
