The new needle nematode three pairs of caudal pores and males common (ratio 1:1.6 P. lusitanicus n. sp. is characterised by a very large body females) with spicules ca 80 μm long. Morphological and size (8072–12,022 μm), an expanded and rounded lip morphometric traits for P. plesioepimikis fit well with the region, ca 30 μm wide, with a clear constriction followed original description, and is reported for the first time in by a depression posterior to the amphidial aperture, Portugal.
