Source-derived summary

Scutellonema brachyurum (British spiral nematode, Carolina spiral nematode) is a plant pathogenic nematode Infecting African violets.

Editorial summary

“Scutellonema brachyurum” enters the record as species of worm. Crown Archives preserves that source wording while asking what Scutellonema, brachyurum and species can confirm, complicate or overturn.

Editorial reviewA practical orientation to terminology and classification, particularly when read beside dated observations, specimens or technical literature. The current 16-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. Its strongest next move is a source search built around Scutellonema, brachyurum and species.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Scutellonema brachyurum” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Scutellonema, brachyurum and species provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

The date and method of observation matter as much as the stated conclusion, especially where classification or consensus has changed. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jan 4, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q7439589. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference.

Critical limits

Scientific names, classifications and consensus can change while older terminology persists in catalogues and historical literature. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Check terminology, classification and the date of the cited evidence. Scientific names and technical consensus can change while older records retain historical value.
