In order to identify the plant parasitic nematodes of the families Dolichodoridae and Pratylenchidae (Nematoda: Tylenchomorpha) collected from green space and gardens in Shiraz, Iran, 67 soil and root samples were collected from different localities of the region during 2014-2015. The nematodes were extracted, fixed and transferred to glycerin according to the De Grisse method. The permanent slides were prepared from the extracted nematodes and studied by light microscope. In this study 15 species namely Amplimerlinius globigerus, Merlinius brevidens, Trophurus pakendorfi, Tylenchorhynchus clarus, T. dubius, T. iphilus, T. mashhoodi, T. teeni, Pratylenchus ekrami, P. thornei, P. unzenensis, Zygotylenchus guevarai, Helicotylenchus digonicus, H. pseudorobustus and Rotylenchus buxophilus were identified. The species T. pakendorfi, T. iphilus and P. ekrami as new records of Iranian nematode fauna, along with P. unzenensis are redescribed.
