Molting of Rotylenchus buxophilus Golden

Molting of Rotylenchus buxophilus is similar in all observed post-embryonic stages. During molting the old cuticle and cephalic framework, conus of the old stylet, vestibulum extension, linings of amphids, distal part of the linings of the excretory duct, rectum, and phasmids are shed. The new styler is formed starting from the conus, which is simultaneously formed in its entirety.
