Many species are free-living, feeding on bacteria or fungal spores, whereas others are predatory or parasitic in habit. The latter forms parasitize most groups of animals, including other nematodes, and a wide variety of algae, fungi and higher plants. However, despite such ecological diversity, nematodes are surprisingly similar in their structure. This chapter starts with a brief, simplified account of the basic morphology, anatomy and bionomics of plant parasitic nematodes, followed by illustrated descriptions that concentrate on the diagnostic features of the most commonly occurring and/or most important plant parasitic genera referred to in the following chapters.
