The internal transcribed spacers of rDNA are among the most important molecular markers used in the taxonomy and phylogeny of entomopathogenic nematodes. However, their ease of use and the results they provide can be confounded by the presence of intra-individual variability. In the present study we screened 40 strains of S. feltiae and S. kraussei and nine strains from the ‘‘glaseri’’ group.
