Phasmarhabditis (Greek: Phasma = (φάσμα (phantom); rhabditis = (ῥάβδος (rod-like)) is a genus of bacterial-feeding nematodes which are facultative parasites whose primary hosts are terrestrial gastropods (slugs and snails).^[1] The name comes from Greek: Phasma- (φάσμα (phantom); rhabditis = rod-like (ῥάβδος (rhabdos). The genus is made up of 18 species (as of 2023)^[2] including P. hermaphrodita,^[1] P. californica,^[3]^[4] P. neopapillosa,^[5] P. papillosa,^[3] P. apuliae,^[4] P. bohemica,^[6] P. bonaquaense,^[7] P. huizhouensis,^[8] P. nidrosiensis,^[8] P. valida ^[8] and P. tawfiki.^[9]
