| ligophorus pilengas n. sp. (monogenea: ancyrocephalidae) from the introduced so-iuy mullet, mugil soiuy (teleostei: mugilidae), in the sea of azov and the black sea. | the monogenean ligophorus chabaudi was originally described on the gills of the flathead mullet, mugil cephalus, and was subsequently reported on the so-iuy mullet, mugil soiuy. however, the morphology of sclerotized parts and multivariate statistical analyses suggest that the form from the so-iuy mullet represents a new species. this study provides a description of the new species ligophorus pilengas n. sp. and provides additional morphological data concerning the morphology of the ventral bar ... | 2004 | 15165041 |
| ligophorus pilengas sarabeev & balbuena, 2004 (monogenea: ancyrocephalidae) is proposed as the senior synonym of l. gussevi miroshnichenko & maltsev, 2004. | ligophorus pilengas sarabeev & balbuena, 2004 and l. gussevi miroshnichenko & maltsev, 2004, both recently described as new species from the so-iuy mullet mugil soiuy in the sea of azov and black sea, were compared. a morphometric analysis of both forms strongly suggests that they represent the same species. according to the 'principle of priority', l. pilengas is proposed as a senior synonym of l. gussevi. | 2006 | 16718589 |
