Investigations were made to find out distribution and Community analysis (occurrence, population density and prominance value) of Hoplolaimus spp. found associated with perennial ornamentals. Results indicated that total 245 soil samples collected from 14 perennial ornamentals in which 169 samples showed the presence of Hoplolaimus spp. with 68.97% of occurrence, 15.61% population density and 129.61% prominence value. Out of 14 perennial ornamentals surveyed, maximum 86.53% occurrence of Hoplolaimus spp. was recorded on rose, while highest population density & prominence value 29.87% & 211.22% were found on jasmine.
