Studies on the entomopathogenicity and bacterial associates of the nematode Oscheius carolinensis
Torres-Barragan, A., Suazo, A., Buhler, W. G., & Cardoza, Y. J. (2011, June 28). Biological Control, Vol. 59, pp. 123–129.
author keywords: Entomopathogen; Symbiosis; Serratia; Providencia; Biocontrol; Insect pest; Nematode; Oscheius
topics (OpenAlex): Entomopathogenic Microorganisms in Pest Control; Insect Pest Control Strategies; Insect Resistance and Genetics
TL;DR:
It would appear that O. carolinensis association with its bacteria allows the nematode a dual life: style as an entomopathogen when associated with S. macescens, and to an extent with P. rettgeri, and as a free-living entity whenassociated with all others.

Oscheius carolinensis n. sp. (Nematoda: Rhabditidae), a potential entomopathogenic nematode from vermicompost
Torres-Barragan, A., Ye, W., & Cardoza, Y. (2010, January 1). Nematology.
author keywords: description; Heterorhabditidoides n. syn.; Insectivorus-group; molecular; morphology; Oscheius chongmingensis n. comb.; phylogeny; SEM; taxonomy
topics (OpenAlex): Entomopathogenic Microorganisms in Pest Control; Nematode management and characterization studies; Insect Resistance and Genetics
TL;DR:
Preliminary tests revealed that this nematode is capable of infecting at least two other insect species under laboratory conditions and therefore has potential as a biological control agent.
