Morphological and molecular sequence data were combined with cross-hybridization studies and used to identify a new Steinernema sp. from Free State, South Africa. Molecular and morphological data indicate that the new species belongs to the 'glaseri-group' of Steinernema spp. Key morphological diagnostic characters for S. innovationi n. sp. include the morphometric features of the third-stage infective juveniles: total body length = 1054 (1000-1103) μm, tail length = 108 (97-117) μm, location of the excretory pore = 88 (82-91) μm, and D% = 58 (54-63), E% = 115 (104-137) and H% = 43 (37-46). Additionally, the morphology of the spicules and gubernaculum of the first-generation males are considered key diagnostic traits. Steinernema innovationi n. sp. was also characterized by analysis of both rDNA and mitochondrial gene sequence data, which further indicate the uniqueness of this Steinernema species.
形态学和分子序列数据与交叉杂交研究相结合，用于鉴定一种来自南非自由邦的新斯氏线虫。分子和形态学数据表明，该新物种属于斯氏线虫属的“glaseri-group”。创新斯氏线虫新种的关键形态学诊断特征包括第三期感染性幼虫的形态测量特征：虫体全长 = 1054（1000 - 1103）μm，尾长 = 108（97 - 117）μm，排泄孔位置 = 88（82 - 91）μm，D% = 58（54 - 63），E% = 115（104 - 137），H% = 43（37 - 46）。此外，第一代雄虫的交合刺和引带形态也被视为关键诊断特征。创新斯氏线虫新种还通过对rDNA和线粒体基因序列数据的分析进行了特征描述，这进一步表明了该斯氏线虫物种的独特性。
