Abstract
In the present study, we describe and illustrate Aplectana nananae n. sp. from the large intestine of Amphisbaena darwinii. Aplectana nananae n. sp. is the second species described in Argentinian amphisbaenian hosts and the 60th species assigned to the genus. This species differs from its congeners by a set of unique characters in males: the presence of 1 unpaired preanal papilla and gubernaculum, the papillae pattern (8+1:2:2) and total number (24+1), very conspicuous and prominent excretory pore, located anterior to the esophageal bulb and the size of spicules (60-70 μm).
在本研究中,我们描述和说明了来自达尔文两栖动物大肠的纳米Aplectana nananae n. sp。nananae Aplectana n. sp.是阿根廷两栖类宿主中发现的第二种,也是该属的第60种。该物种与其同属物种的不同之处在于其雄性具有一系列独特的特征:存在1个未配对的肛门前乳头和管状骨,乳头形态(8+1:2:2)和总数(24+1),非常明显和突出的排泄孔,位于食管球前部,针状体大小(60-70 μm)。
