Abstract
A small soil rhabdocoel of the class Turbellaria was found preying on Meloidogyne incognita larvae. The rhabdocoels were successfully reared through several generations using larvae of root-knot nematode, and larvae and adults of Panagrellus redivivus. The biology of the flatworm was studied, and its role as a possible biological control agent of plant nematode diseases was investigated.
