| the description of gyrodactylus corleonis sp. n. and g. neretum sp. n. (platyhelminthes: monogenea) with comments on other gyrodactylids parasitising pipefish (pisces: syngnathidae). | the current work describes two new species of gyrodactylus von nordmann, 1832 collected from pipefish syngnathus scovelli (evermann et kendall) and syngnathus typhle l. during two separate gyrodactylosis episodes on fish held in a public aquarium located in northern italy. the gyrodactylids collected from the skin, fins and gills of pipefish were subjected to a morphological analysis of the attachment hooks and the morphometric data were compared to the four species of gyrodactylus previously de ... | 2010 | 20449996 |
| a new gyrodactylid (monogenea) parasitizing bay pipefish (syngnathus leptorhynchus) from the pacific coast of north america. | gyrodactylus leptorhynchi n. sp. (monogenea) is described from bay pipefish ( syngnathus leptorhynchus ) (syngnathidae) in coastal waters of southern california and british columbia, and from an outbreak of gyrodactylosis at the cabrillo marine aquarium in california. gyrodactylus leptorhynchi is morphologically similar (stout hamuli, superficial bar with no anterolateral processes, and a small, triangular membrane, similarly shaped marginal hook sickles, and a male copulatory organ [mco] with n ... | 2013 | 23088449 |
| the first record of gyrodactylus corleonis paladini, cable, fioravanti, faria & shinn, 2010 (monogenea: gyrodactylidae) from the wild. | specimens of gyrodactylus corleonis paladini, cable, fioravanti, faria & shinn, 2010 (monogenea: gyrodactylidae) were collected from the body and fins of gobius cobitis pallas in the western mediterranean sea off northwestern sardinia. this is the first finding of this species in the wild and also represents a new host record. a morphological comparison of the new material with the type description of g. corleonis is presented. since g. corleonis was found in the wild on representatives of the g ... | 2015 | 26001763 |
