Two new species of Cichlidogyrus (Monogenea: Dactylogyridae) parasitizing the gills of African cichlid fishes (Perciformes).
Original language description
During surveys of helminth parasites of freshwater fishes from the Niokolo-Koba National park, Senegal, two new monogenean species of Cichlidogyrus were found on the gills of three species of African cichlids: C. dracolemma n. sp. from Hemichromis letourneuxi and C. nageus n. sp. from Sarotherodon galilaeus galilaeus and Tilapia guineensis. The new species are recognised on the basis of morphological differences in the male copulatory organs (MCOs) and apparent differences in the LSU, SSU rDNA and ITS1sequence data. Cichlidogyrus dracolemma n. sp. closely resembles Cichlidogyrus bychowskii sensu Paperna, 1965 (probably a misidentification) from Hemichromis bimaculatus in having morphologically similar types of haptoral sclerites, MCO and vagina. Thesespecies are differentiated by C. dracolemma n. sp. possessing a MCO with a large kite-shaped termination of the accessory piece.
