Description of Makatinus siddiqii, new species (Dorylaimida: Aporcelaimidae: Aporcelaiminae) from Paschim Medinipur, West Bengal, India with key to its world species

Makatinus siddiqii described from Paschim Medinipur, West Bengal, India is distinguished from all species of Makatinus in general and its closest ally M. punctatus Heyns in particular on the basis of short and comparatively robust body, robust odontostyle with aperture of about one-half length, a thin cardiac disc, short tongue-shaped cardia and in the absence of male. A key to all ten world species of Makatinus is presented here including new species, which appears to be the second record of the genus Makatinus from India in the existing literature.
