Scutellonema cavenessi is a plant pathogenic nematode.
Description
The species is very similar physically to S. bradys, and was grouped into the S. bradys complex by Baujard & Martiny (1995).[1] Compared to S. bradys, S. cavenessi has a more C-shaped habitus, smaller submedian lips, longer epiptygmata, less-developed glands, and lobe-shaped bursa.[2]
