Trematoda: Lepocreadiidae) THE LIFE-CYCLE AND MORPHOLOGY OF TETRACERASTA BLEPTA, GEN. NOV., SP. NOV. AND STEGODEXAMENE CALLISTA, SP. NOV. (TREMATODA: LEPOCREADIIDAE) FROM THE LONG-FINNED EEL, ANGUILLA REINHARDTII STEINDACHNER BY REGINALD ALAN WATSON BSc.(HONS.), MSc. (MANITOBA) PARASITOLOGY DEPARTMENT University of Queensland, ST. LUCIA, Queensland, Australia, 4067. A THESI S SUBMITTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY WITHIN THE UNIVERSITY OF QUEENSLAND JULY, 1982 DECLARATION This thesis has been prepared in accordance with the rules set out in the Combined Higher Degree Handbook 1982, for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Queensland. The work presented is this thesis is entirely my own except where otherwise acknowledged and no part of it has been submitted for any other degree at this or any other university R. A. Watson July 1982 ABSTRACT Two new lepocreadiid digeneans, Tetracerasta blepta, gen. nov., sp. nov. and Stegodexamene callista, sp. nov. are described from the intestines of the long-finned freshwater eel, Anguilla reinhardtii, from the Brisbane River, Queensland, and the Australian bass, Macquaria novemaculeata, from the Richmond River, New South Wales, Australia. Their life-cycles have been elucidated and completed in the laboratory. All developmental stages are described and illustrated. Eggs from adults of these lepocreadiid species were obtained from eels. These hatched and miracidia from them injected a precocious sporocyst into uninfected laboratory-reared prosobranch gastropods, Posticobia brazieri. Following two generations of rediae in the digestive gland of the snail, large ophthalmotrichocercous cercariae were produced. The cercariae of..!.:._ blepta penetrated uninfected tadpoles of Litoria lesueuri and the gudgeons, Hypseleotris compressus and ~ galii. Encystment occurred in the muscle and viscera. The cercariae of S. callista lured fish to eat them or were inhaled. They penetrated the throat of uninfected, pond-reared rainbowfish, Nematocentris fluviatilis and uninfected perchlet, Ambassis sp. Encystment occurred in the pharyngeal muscle or liver. Adults developed in uninfected eels, Anguilla austral is and A. reinhardtii, completing the life-cycles. The life-cycles and morphology of these species are compared to those of Stegodexamene anguillae Macfarlane, 1951 and other lepocreadiids. i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First and foremost I would like to thank Dr. J. C. Pearson for his never failing interest, his freely-given time and his valuable advice supported by years of careful observations. I wish to thank T. Cribb, R. Hutchings, J. Field, I. Johnston, J.

Alder. The author acknowledges the advice and assistance of Dr. C. Dobson, Dr. R. Lester and of the Queensland State Fisheries. I would like to thank D. Scott for her technical advice and help. I am indebted to R. Manzanell for his assistance with translations and with the identification of nematodes. I am grateful to Dr. S. Edmonds for his identifications of acanthocephalans. I acknowledge J. Hardy and the staff of the Electron Microscope Centre for their assistance. The author most gratefully acknowledges the logistic support of the Department of Parasitol ogy; the Universi ty of Queensland, its services and particularly the provision of a University of Queensland Postgraduate Research Scholarship which helped sustain the author. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT . i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ii LIST OF FIGURES. viii LIST OF TABLES . v LIST OF APPENDICES. xi I INTRODUCTION.

In the search for species amenable to this use, many investigators have chosen the hardy eury­ haline species belonging to the genus Fundulus. In the course of holding these animals under restricted laboratory conditions, problems involving parasitization have developed. In the summer of 1964, workers at our Institute experienced great difficulty in maintaining Fundulus in captivity, and large numbers of experimental animals died. Examination of these fish revealed them to be heavi]y infested with monogenetic trematodes ( mostly gyrodactylids, a few dac­ tylogyrids). Inasmuch as severe cases of parasitism could well effect experimen­ tal results and render interpretation difficult, it is important that rela­ tionships between experimental animals and their parasites be recognized and dealt with.
