We identified the five root-lesion nematode species, Pratylenchus crenatus, P. fallax, P. kumamotoensis, P. panamaensis and P. penetrans from intercepted in quarantine inspection over the past five years. Their diagnostic characters are including number of lip annuli, stylet length, shape of the labial region, presence or absence of males, structure of lateral fields, shape of spermatheca, length of the post-vulval uterine sac and shape of tail and so forth. We described the photos, measurements and morphological characters.

Pratylenchoides utahensis Baldwin, Luc & Bell, 1983 is recorded for the first time from Korea. Morphological characteristics are described based on the specimens preserved in Nematology Laboratory, Entomology Division, National Institute of Agricultural Science and Technology; and Department of Agricultural Biology, Kyungpook National University.

Pratylenchus loosi Loof, 1960 is recorded for the first time from Korea. The nematode was isolated from the roots of tea (Thea sinensis L.) and soil around the roots from Yeongam-gun, Jeo-llanam-do and Namjeju-gun, Jeju-do, Korea. This species has two lip annuli. The female is 433-646 $\mu\textrm{m}$ long: a＝ 29.1-37.5, b ＝ 5.1-6.4, c ＝ 15.0-21.3, vulva(%) ＝ 73.0-85.4. The male body length is 408-512$\mu\textrm{m}$ long: a＝36.1-40.0, b＝4.8-6.7, c ＝17.0-19.0, and spicule ＝ 14.1-18.0 $\mu\textrm{m}$. The stylet is 11.6-18.0 $\mu\textrm{m}$ long and the number of incisures is four. The shape of spermatheca filled with sperm is broadly rounded, oval and quadrangular The shape of tail is narrowly round to subacute.
