In order to identify and classify the nematode(s) infesting the potato crops at Navidad, Galeana region, state of Nuevo Leon in Northern Mexico, two experimental phases were made. The first was to extract adult females from root- knot of 20 mature plants grown in an infested soil samples (a mixture of 80 samples of 3 kg each) which were brought directly from the field and placed under greenhouse conditions; second-stage juvenile males filtrated after washing 20 soil subsamples (100 g each) which were taken randomlly from the infested soil; also, masses of eggs were obtained from the isolated females. Morphometric measures were compared among the sampled nematode's characteristics and the ones proper to the gender Meloidogyne who parasites potatoes. The second phase was performed to locate the physiological race of the nematode by testing differential crops such as cotton, chili pepper, watermelon, peanut, tomato and tabacum, following the Eisenback et al. (1981) procedure. The nematodes identified through those metodologies were M. incognita race 1.
