| two new species of homalometron (digenea: apocreadiidae) from nearctic freshwater fundulids, elucidation of the life cycle of h. cupuloris, and molecular phylogenetic analysis of some congeners. | two species of digeneans belonging in homalometron are described from nearctic freshwater fundulid fishes: homalometron robisoni n. sp. is described from the blackstripe topminnow, fundulus notatus, from oklahoma and homalometron frocioneae n. sp. is described from the banded killifish, fundulus diaphanus, from new york. homalometron robisoni n. sp. differs from all congeners by having vitelline follicles that extend into the forebody, a feature that necessitates altering the generic diagnosis f ... | 2016 | 26541490 |
| phylogenetic position of creptotrema funduli in the allocreadiidae based on partial 28s rdna sequences. | the infrequently reported allocreadiid digenean creptotrema funduli mueller, 1934 is documented from the blackstripe topminnow, fundulus notatus (cyprinodontiformes: fundulidae), in the headwaters of the biloxi river, harrison county, mississippi. specimens from mississippi were compared with the type material from fundulus diaphanus menona from oneida lake, new york, and no substantial difference was found. a fragment of ribosomal dna, comprising a short portion of the 3' end of 18s nuclear rdn ... | 2012 | 22288517 |
