Five new monogenean species from the gills of Mulloidichthys vanicolensis (Perciformes: Mullidae) off New Caledonia, with the proposal of Volsellituba n. gen. and Pennulituba n. gen. (Monogenea: Dactylogyridae)
Original language description
The perciform family Mullidae (goatfishes) includes 6 genera with about 60 known species, widely distributed in all tropical to warm-temperature seas. Although goatfishes represent one of the abundant groups of coral reef fishes, studies dealing with their dactylogyrid monogeneans are limited. To date, only 18 species of Haliotrema (Dactylogyridae), a genus that is currently considered as a polyphyletic taxon, have been reported on 23, and 2 unidentified, species of mullids. Recently, we have found several dactylogyrid species on the gills of Mulloidichthys vanicolensis collected off New Caledonia. Although the general features of internal anatomy of the found specimens corresponded to the generic diagnosis of Haliotrema, based on the outstanding features of the sclerotised haptoral structures and the copulatory organ, two new genera were proposed to accommodate 5 new species. Volsellituba n. gen. and Pennulituba n. gen.
