Aborjinia corallicola sp. n. is characterized by 18.4-33.2 mm long body in adults; outer labial and cephalic sensilla papilliform and located 14-21 µm from anterior end, amphideal aperture located 22-41 µm from anterior end, excretory pore indistinct, rectum and anal opening functional, convex-conoid tail with broadly rounded terminus, spinneret subventral. It is placed in the genus Aborjinia based on the combination of the following characters: outer labial and cephalic sensilla papilliform in shape and located in one circle, contrary to Marimermis Rutsov & Platonova, 1974 (outer labial and cephalic sensilla setiform) and Ananus RSystematic parasitology559-579https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC8578068biostudies-literatureAborjinia corallicola sp. n., a new nematode species (Nematoda: Marimermithidae) associated with the bamboo coral Acanella arbuscula (Johnson).PMC8578068de Moura Neves BWesterman RHolovachov OAhmed MfalseAborjinia corallicola sp. n., a new nematode species (Nematoda: Marimermithidae) associated with the bamboo coral Acanella arbuscula (Johnson).A new species of Aborjinia Özdikmen, 2010 is described from the tissues of the cold-water bamboo coral Acanella arbuscula (Johnson) from the northwest Atlantic.
