Popis: Subulura (Murisubulura) andersoni (Cobbold, 1876) (Nematoda: Subuluridae) is redescribed in detail using light and scanning electron microscopy based on materials collected from Bunomys chrysocomus and Bunomys andrewsi (Rodentia: Muridae) of Sulawesi, Indonesia, to provide basic reference data for identification. Comparison was made among congeners from adjacent areas, especially Subulura (Murisubulura) suzukii Yagi and Kamiya, 1981 of Japan. Because morphological differences distinguishing S. (M.) andersoni from S. (M.) suzukii and S. (M.) sipiroki were only the thickness of female tail and length of male tail, respectively, further study using DNA sequence analysis is necessary to prove their distinctness.
