morphometrics of the spicules are extremely variable within the group but they presumably show a limited intraspecific variation. Thus, their study has taxonomical interest to separate some taxa and, in particular, close species belonging to the same genus. The dorylaims, the representatives of the order
synonymised with Oscheius Andrássy, 1976 by Ye et al . ( 2010 ). Inadequate morphological characterisation, morphometrics and some errors in the original description of O. chongmingensis encouraged us to re-describe this species from the Tumian strain and to add some data on its entomopathogenicity. We
