Abstract
Two new species of Belondira viz. B. notablis sp. n. and B. eugeniae sp. n. collected from soilaround the roots of santra from Nagpur and from jamun at Chandarpur. Maharashtra respectively are described. B. notabilis sp. n. is characterized by having anterior uterine branch measuring about twice the vulval body-diameter in length, slender body and spicules measuring 24–26μm in length. B. eugeniae sp. n. is distinctive by L=1.20–1.42 mm; a-28-35; b=4.0–4.5; basal oesophageal bulb=150–160 μm x 15–20 μm; V=35–38 and odontophore=9–10 μm.
