A new entomopathogenic nematode, Steinernema robustispiculum n. sp (Rhabditida : Steinernematidae), from Chumomray National Park in Vietnam. Instituut voor Landbouw-, Visserij- en Voedingsonderzoek
Steinernema robustispiculum n. sp. (Rhabditida: Steinernematidae) was isolated from woodland in Chumornray National Park, Sason, Sathay, Kontum, Vietnam.
