Abstract
The morphology of adult and juvenile Hemicycliophora poranga Monteiro and Lordello, 1978 is redescribed from a Californian population cultur ed on tomato. Postembryonic juveniles were distinguished by difference s in body length, development and length of the reproductive system, s hape and attachment of the labial disc, attachment of sheath, shape of the first labial annulus, absence or presence of annular ridges and f olds, and shape of the stylet knobs. The life cycle was completed in 2 5-27 days at 25 +/- 1 degrees C. Data on the moulting process are prov ided.
