Nematodes is one of the most abundant and widespread groups of invertebrate animals, having mastered a considerable range of habitats. With all the diversity of ecological niches, developed by the nematodes, a major habitat of this group of animals is the soil. The importance of the research of the nematodes living in the soil is due not only to their significant role in the cycles of matter and energy in the biosphere, and the presence of pathogenic species, but also the opportunity for monitoring the ecosysems ecological state.
