Abstract
ABSTRACT: Dolops intermedia Silva, 1978 (Crustacea: Argulidae) was described from Rio Grande do Sul state in the southernmost state of Brazil. Here, we report a new occurrence of this species from Maranhão state, 1 of the northernmost states of Brazil. The infection of new hosts Colossoma macropomum (Cuvier, 1816), Oreochromis niloticus (Linnaeus, 1758), Hoplias malabaricus (Bloch, 1794), Leporinus friderici (Bloch, 1794), and Pygocentrus nattereri (Kner, 1858) is reported for the first time. Additional morphological information is provided for some structures, and the ratios for body measurements are provided for the first time.
期刊介绍:
Comparative Parasitology (continuing the Journal of the Helminthological Society of Washington in its 67th volume) focuses on parasitological research of a comparative nature, emphasizing taxonomy, systematics, ecology, biogeography, evolution, faunal survey, and biological inventory within a morphological and/or molecular context. The scope of Comparative Parasitology extends to all parasitic faunas, including helminths, protistans and arthropods.
