Abstract

Recent examinations of some marine fishes from off the southern coast of Iraq revealed the presence of five species of Philometra Costa, 1845 (Nematoda: Philometridae): Philometra arabiensis sp. n. (males and females) from the ovary of the shrimp scad Alepes djedaba (Forsskål) (Carangidae, Carangiformes), Philometra psettoditis Moravec, Walter et Yuniar, 2012 (females) from the body cavity of the Indian halibut Psettodes erumei (Bloch et Schneider) (Psettodidae, Pleuronectiformes), Philometra terapontis Moravec, Gopalakrishnan, Rajkumar, Saravanakumar et Kaliyamoorthy, 2011 (female) from the ovary of the jarbua terapon Terapon jarbua (Forsskål) (Terapontidae, Centrarchiformes), Philometra sp. (females) from the ovary of the Arabian blackspot threadfin Polydactylus mullani (Hora) (Polynemidae, Carangariformes) and Philometra sp. 2 of Moravec et al. (2016a) (females) from the ovary and body cavity of the bartail flathead Platycephalus indicus (Linnaeus) (Platycephalidae, Perciformes). Philometra arabiensis sp. n. is mainly characterised by the length of spicules (198-243 µm) and gubernaculum (75-99 µm), the gubernaculum/spicule length ratio (1 : 2.33-2.79), the structure of the gubernaculum distal portion and the male caudal end, and the body length of males (1.86-2.73 mm). The present findings of P. psettoditis and P. terapontis in fishes of the Arabian Gulf represent new geographical records for these parasites.

伊拉克海鱼新记录五种(线虫纲:线虫科)，包括来自阿勒普斯吉达巴虾子房的arabiensis sp. n.的描述。

最近对伊拉克南部海岸的一些海鱼进行的检查显示，1845年存在五种栉水母(线虫纲:栉水母科):arabiensis sp. n.(雄性和雌性)来自Alepes djedaba (forssk) (Carangidae, Carangiformes)， Philometra psettoditis Moravec, Walter et Yuniar, 2012(雌性)来自印度大比目鱼Psettodes erumei (Bloch et Schneider) (Psettodidae, Pleuronectiformes)， Philometra terapontis Moravec, Gopalakrishnan, Rajkumar, Saravanakumar et kaliyamothy, 2011(雌性)来自jarbua terapon jarbua (forssk) (Terapontidae)的卵巢，阿拉伯黑点丝线Polydactylus mullani (Hora) (Polynemidae, Carangariformes)和Moravec等人(2016a)(雌性)的Philometra sp. 2来自bartail扁平头Platycephalus indicus (Linnaeus) (Platycephalidae, Perciformes)的卵巢和体腔。Philometra arabiensis sp. n.的主要特征是针尖长度(198-243µm)和管骨长度(75-99µm)，管骨/针尖长度比(1:1 . 2.33-2.79)，管骨远端和雄性尾端结构，雄性体长(1.86-2.73 mm)。本研究在阿拉伯湾鱼类中发现伪托氏假单胞虫和terapontis假单胞虫，为这两种寄生虫提供了新的地理记录。

期刊介绍： FOLIA PARASITOLOGICA, issued in online versions, is an international journal that covers the whole field of general, systematic, ecological and experimental parasitology. It publishes original research papers, research notes and review articles. Contributions from all branches of animal parasitology, such as morphology, taxonomy, biology, biochemistry, physiology, immunology, molecular biology and evolution of parasites, and host-parasite relationships, are eligible. Novelty and importance in the international (not local or regional) context are required. New geographical records of parasites, records of new hosts, regional parasite and/or host surveys (if they constitute the principal substance of manuscript), local/regional prevalence surveys of diseases, local/regional studies on epidemiology of well known diseases and of parasite impact on human/animal health, case reports, routine clinical studies and testing of established diagnostic or treatment procedures, will not be considered. One species description will also not be considered unless they include more general information, such as new diagnostic characters, host-parasite associations, phylogenetic implications, etc. Manuscripts found suitable on submission will be reviewed by at least two reviewers.
