03C287C8FFBFEA53FF4CFF58A467F984.taxon	diagnosis	Diagnosis. The new species is characterized by its 1.20 – 1.46 mm long body, lip region offset by constriction and 16 – 18 µm broad, odontostyle 20 µm at its ventral side or 1.1 – 1.4 times the lip region diameter, neck 354 – 368 µm long, pharyngeal expansion 175 – 186 µm long or 49 – 51 % of total neck length, a dorsal cell mass present at the pharyngo-intestinal junction, uterus tripartite and 176 – 241 µm, or 2.4 – 2.7 times the corresponding body diameter, long, V = 52 – 54, tail conical with acute tip and slightly recurved dorsad (33 – 42 µm, c = 33 – 45, c’ = 0.9 – 1.2), spicules 62 µm long, and 12 regularly spaced ventromedian supplements, three of them within the range of spicules. Relationships. The new species is very similar to A. seychellensis Andrássy, 2011 in its general morphology and morphometrics, but differs from the type population of that species in its larger general size (body length 1.20 – 1.46 (n = 4) vs 0.92 – 1.07 mm (n = 4); neck length 354 – 368 vs 272 – 330 µm), much larger genital branches (17 – 21 % vs 7 – 13 % of total body length each), more posterior vulva (V = 52 – 54 vs V = 45 – 52), shorter female tail (32 – 36 vs 36 – 40 µm, c = 33 – 45 vs c = 25 – 29) and male present (vs absent). Especially relevant in the type population are the very short female genital branches, probably because the uterus is short and simple. Vinciguerra et al. (2014) studied two A. seychellensis populations from Ecuador that differ from the type populations in their larger general size [body 1.08 – 1.55 (n = 26) vs 0.92 – 1.07 (n = 4) mm long] and comparatively shorter female tail (c = 29 – 42 vs c = 25 – 29). Besides, the female genital branches are larger (12 – 22 vs 7 – 13 % of total body length), but lower values in the Ecuador material may be due to the convoluted, tripartite uterus. Leaving aside the fewer ventromedian supplements (7 – 9 vs 12; two vs three situated within the range of spicules) in males from Ecuador, there is no significant difference between this material and the Vietnamese specimens herein studied. Taking into consideration that only one male of the new species has been collected, the differences in number and arrangement of ventromedian supplements are provisionally regarded as intraspecific variability and, consequently, we consider the specimens from Ecuador and Vietnam to be conspecific.	en	Nguyen, Thi Anh Duong, Abolafia, Joaquín, Bonkowski, Michael, Santiago, Reyes Peña- (2016): Two new species of the genus Aporcelinus Andrássy, 2009 (Nematoda, Dorylaimida, Aporcelaimidae) from Vietnam.
