Unexpected diversity of Gyrodactylus species (Monogenea:Gyrodactylidae) parazitising cichlids of Southern Africa
Original language description
High diversity of viviparous monogenea of the genus Gyrodactylus Nordmann, 1832 parasitizing cichlids from African continent, namely Zimbabwe and South Africa, is reported. Species identification based on haptoral sclerites morphometry and nuclear ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences revealed presence of 12 Gyrodactylus species, which only three of them are currently known for the sciences as described species (Gyrodactylus yacatli García-Vásquez, Hansen, Christison, Bron & Shinn, 2011, Gyrodactylus nyanzae Paperna, 1973 and Gyrodactylus sturmbaueri Vanhove, Snoeks, Volckaert & Huyse, 2011). Principal components analyses (PCA) facilitated distinguishing of morphologically similar species. This study brings the first recordof G. yacatli collected on Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus niloticus (L.) and Pseudocrenilabrus philander philander (Weber) from Africa.
