During the present study, for the first time Nematode parasites were from the colon region of the intestine of Blatta orientalis from Srinagar. On close examination, they were found to resemble to those of Leidynema appendiculate in all their morphological and biological features. Both male and female specimens were recovered but male specimens were lesser in comparison to females. Measurements and camera lucida drawings are also given.
