Horsehair worms (Nematomorpha: Gordioidea) from Hazarost mountains stream, Kurdstan region, Iraq
Journal Title: Journal of Research in Biology - Year 2011, Vol 1, Issue 7
Abstract
Horsehair worms were recorded for the first time in Hazarost mountains streams, Kurdistan, Iraq. As appeared from its morphological criteria such as cuticular sculpture, measurements, histology of a cross section, it belong to genus: Gordius. It is very difficult to determine the species in the time being but in the light of recent use of sophisticated techniques such as combined large-subunit and small-subunit rRNA gene sequences it will be possible to identify the species
