ABSTRACT The position, concept and composition of the genus Polymorphus (=Profilicollis Meyer, 1931; Fa/sifilicollis Webster, 1948; Parafilicollis Petrochenko, 1950; Subfilicollis Hoklova, 1967) are critically evaluated and a new diagnosis of the genus is proposed based on the designation of Hexaglandula Petrochenko, 1950 and Subcorynosoma Hoklova, 1967 as junior synonyms. Other taxonomic changes proposed include the reassignment of Polymorph us brevis ( = Arhythmorhynchus brevis) back to Polymorph us, the synonymization of Polymorphus magnus with Polymorphus minutus, the recognition of Polymorphus pupa and of the questionable status of· Polymorphus trochus Van Cleave, 1945 sensu Hoklova, 1966. Hoklova's subgenera are reviewed and rejected. Only two subgenera are recognized, Polymorphus Luhe, 1911 with 36 species and ProfiJicoJJis Meyer, 1931 with 10 species. A key to species of the genus is provided. INTRODUCTION and was not consistent with other decidedly Polymorph us species which also have 6 cement glands, e.g., Polymorphus cetaceum (Johnston and Best, 1942) Schmidt and Dailey, 1971, and The discovery of Polymorphus spindlatus by Amin and Polymorphus arctocephali Smales, 1986.

The work were later either synonymized with, or reduced to, subgenera of is presented in a historic context in order to relate the evaluation Polymorphus. The erection of Hexaglandula by Petrochenko of the concept of Polymorphus to its present status and (1950) for forms with 6 cement glands caused more confusion composition as conceived by various authors. 115 Review of the genus polymorphus lube THE POSITION, CONCEPT, AND COMPOSITION OF Webster, 1948. POLYMORPHUS Petrochenko (1956) erected Filicollidae for Filicollis Liihe, 1911 including only F. anatis (Schrank, 1788) Liihe, 1911, and The characteristic generic of features of Polymorphus, erected Parafilicollis Petrochenko 1956 including P. major, P. altmani, for only one species, P. minutus (Goeze, 1782), by Luhe (1911) P. kenti and P. sphaerocephalus. His three major diagnostic included small body size, body wall nuclei, grid-like lacunar features of Parafilicolliswere the long neck, spheroidal proboscis system, trunk spines anterior to constriction, radially symmetric­ and eggs without polar prolongation of middle membrane. al proboscis hooks which decreases in size anteriorly and Additional features included unpronounced sexual dimorphism, posteriorly, double-walled proboscis receptacle with brain near anterior trunk spines not well defined in young females, and 4-6 its posterior end, long neck, moderately long lemnisci, testes tubular cement glands. Petrochenko (1956) placed Parafilicollis behind one another, tubular cement glands, genital opening in Gigantorhynchidae Southwell and MacFie, 1925 based pri­ terminal without spines, and eggs with polar prolongation of marily on the egg shape. Schmidt and Kuntz (1967) declared middle membrane. Except for features like the long neck or the Parafilicollis as without status because Meyer (1931) erected position of the testes and possibly the distribution of the body Profilicollis for the same concept. The shape of eggs was clearly wall nuclei, the above diagnosis remains largely valid today. As shown to be of no diagnostic value at the generic level in the number of species included in the genus increased, the Polymorphida:e by Van Cleave (1939), Schmidt and Kuntz (1966, generic concept continued to expand to accommodate them. 1967) and Amin (this paper). Many of the diagnostic features added by various authors were too restrictive to be of generic value as the interspecific Golvan (1960-61) accepted Profilicollis ( = Falsifilicollis Webs­ variability within Polymorphus continued to increase with the ter, 1948) as a subgenus diagnosed with spheroidal proboscis and discovery of more species. These restrictive diagnostic features long slender neck, and included the same four species listed by are noted in the following few paragraphs. Webster (1948), but without indicating a subgenus for the other Southwell and MacFie (1925), who discussed only P. minutus, species of the genus. Yamaguti (1963) synonymized Profilicollis diagnosed the body as thickened anteriorly and the proboscis as with Polymorphus, and Parafilicollis with Webster's, 1948 subcylindrical. Travassos (1926) recognized Polymorph us under Falsifilicollis which he amended and elevated to the generic subfamily Centrorhynchinae (Van Cleave, 1916) of family status. Yamaguti's (1963) diagnosis of Falsifilicollis was essen­ Echinorhynchidae Cobbold, 1879 but Thapar (1927) included it tially the same as that of Petrochenko's (1956) of Parafilicollis in his new family Acanthogyridae and order Acanthogyridea. except for his reference to proboscis armature (16-30 longitudin­ The inconsistencies in Travassos's (1926) system, based on the al rows of 7-12 hooks each), 4-8 tubular cement glands, and use of insufficiently constant characters, were not satisfactorily tandem testes.

Clearly Falsifilicollis and Parafilicollis occupy the same concept In Meyer's (1931) system, Polymorphus was correctly placed for which Meyer (1931) originally erected Profilicollis. These in his family Polymorphidae and order (Class) Palaeacan­ three taxa are also clearly synonymous with Polymorphus since thocephala, and included 14 species (Meyer, 1932) all of which the subgenus Profilicollis was erected by Golvan (1961) for are presently recognized members of the genus except P. magnus Webster's (1948) original subgenus Falsifilicollis.

Most notable among these were Leuckart (1862), Schneider (1871), Hamann (1891 a) and Kaiser (1893). These works and others, including his own observations, were summarized by Meyer (1933) in the monograph celebrated by the present volume. For this reason findings of these early researchers are not discussed further, except to say that it would be difficult to find more elegant, detailed and correct studies of acanthocephalan ontogeny than those published by these pioneers.

  • Nyctiphanes Couchii As Intermediate Host for the Acanthocephalan Bolbosoma Balaenae in Temperate Waters of the NE Atlantic

Euphausiids were caught in locations outside the Ría de Vigo in Galicia, NW Spain, and prevalence of infection was up to 0.1%. The parasite was identi- fied by morphological characters. Cystacanths were 8.09 ± 2.25 mm total length (mean ± SD) and had proboscises that consisted of 22 to 24 longitudinal rows of hooks, each of which had 8 or 9 hooks per row including 2 or 3 rootless ones in the proboscis base and 1 field of small hooks in the prebulbar part. Phylogenetic analyses of 18S rDNA and cytocrome c oxidase subunit I revealed a close relationship with other taxa of the family Polymorphidae (Meyer, 1931). The results extend northwards ot the known distribution of B. balaenae. Taxonomic affiliation of parasites and trophic ecology in the sampling area suggest that N. couchii is the intermediate host for B.

    Parasit, hung. 23. 1990 Studies on Acanthocephala from aquatic birds in Hungary Dr. Zlatka M. DIMITROV A1, Dr. Éva MURAI2 and Dr. Todor GENOV3 Department of Zoology, Higher Institute of Zootechnics and Veterinary Medicine, Stara Zagora, Bulgaria' — Department of Zoology, Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest, Hungary2 — Institute of Parasitology, Bulgarian Academy of Science*. Sofia, Bulgaria3 "Studies on Acanthocephala from aquatic birds in Hungary" - Dimitrova, Z. M., Murai, É. and Genov, T. - Parasit, hung., 23: 39-64. 1990. ABSTRACT. A total of 7 aquatic bird species of four orders were found as hosts of acanthocephalans: 5 species of the family Polymorphidae and one of the family Centrorhynchidae were established. Morphological descriptions are presented, illustrating their variability. Polymorphic diploinflatus, P. magnus, P. cf.phippsi and Southwellina hispida are reported first for the Hungarian fauna. KEY WORDS: Acanthocephala, Polymorphidae, Centrorhynchidae, morphology, taxonomy, intraspecific variability, aquatic birds, Hungary. When reviewing the endoparasites of birds in the regions of Hortobágy and Biharugra, EDELÉNYI (1964) described two acanthocephalan species from aquatic birds: Polymorphic striatus (Goeze, 1782) in anseriform and cico-niiform hosts, and Filicollis anatis (Schrank, 1788) in anseriform and gruiform birds. MURAI et al. (1983, 1985) recorded in Hortobágy National Park and Kiskunság National Park the following acanthocephalan parasites from aquatic birds: Polymorphic minutie (Goeze, 1872), Filicollis anatis (Schrank, 1788), Centrorhynchus aluconis (Mueller, 1780) and C. lancea (Westrumb, 1821). The aim of the present paper is to present new data on the species compo-sition, morphology and distribution of acanthocephalans from aquatic birds in Hungary. It is based on new specimens from anseriform, gruiform, ciconiiform and charadriiform hosts collected in different parts of the country and also on an already published material (MURAI et al.
