  • A Comparison Between Mitochondrial DNA and the Ribosomal Internal Transcribed Regions in Prospecting for Cryptic Species of Platyhelminth Parasites
    839 A comparison between mitochondrial DNA and the ribosomal internal transcribed regions in prospecting for cryptic species of platyhelminth parasites R. VILAS*, C. D. CRISCIONE and M. S. BLOUIN Department of Zoology, Oregon State University, 3029 Cordley Hall, Corvallis, Oregon 97331, USA (Received 25 March 2005; revised 12 May and 31 May 2005; accepted 31 May 2005) SUMMARY We examined the relative merits of mitochondrial DNA loci and ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacers for their use in prospecting for cryptic species of platyhelminth parasites. Sequence divergence at ITS1 and ITS2 was compared with divergence at 2 mtDNA loci (NADH dehydrogenase-1 and cytochrome c oxidase I) between closely related species of trematodes and cestodes. Both spacers accumulated substitutions substantially more slowly than mtDNA, which clearly shows a higher level of divergence among species relative to intra-specific variation. Besides a slow rate of substitution, other caveats that may be encountered when using ITS sequences as a prospecting marker are discussed. In particular, we note recent studies that suggest the existence of substantial levels of intra-individual variation in ITS sequences of flatworms. Because it is likely that closely related species share this phenomenon, it may confound the detection of cryptic species, especially if small sample sizes are studied. Although potential limitations of mtDNA are also recognized, the higher rate of evolution and smaller effective population size of this marker increases the probability of detecting diagnostic characters between cryptic species. Key words: cytochrome c oxidase I, NADH dehydrogenase-1, rDNA internal transcribed spacer, platyhelminth parasites, cryptic species, molecular prospecting. INTRODUCTION found within species of that taxon), or if one finds evidence of reciprocally monophyletic groups in The application of DNA methods to studies on the large population samples.

  • Descripción De Una Especie Nueva De Pseudopecoelus (Trematoda: Opecoelidae) Con Registros Nuevos De Tremátodos De Peces Marinos De La Costa Del Pacífico De México
    Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad 89 (2018): 22-28 Taxonomy and systematics Description of a new species of Pseudopecoelus (Trematoda: Opecoelidae) with new records of trematodes of marine fishes from the Pacific coast of Mexico Descripción de una especie nueva de Pseudopecoelus (Trematoda: Opecoelidae) con registros nuevos de tremátodos de peces marinos de la costa del Pacífico de México María Angélica Estrada-García a, Luis García-Prieto a, Lorena Garrido-Olvera b, * a Laboratorio de Helmintología, Instituto de Biología, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Apartado postal 70-153, 04510 México City, Mexico b Instituto de Ecología Aplicada, Universidad Autónoma de Tamaulipas, División del Golfo 356, La Libertad, 87019 Ciudad Victoria, Tamaulipas, Mexico * Corresponding author: [email protected] (L. Garrido-Olvera) Received: 04 October 2016; accepted: 17 July 2017 Abstract As a part of the revision of unidentified specimens harbored by the Colección Nacional de Helmintos of the Instituto de Biología, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, we studied several specimens of trematodes collected and processed between 1950 and 1980 in marine fishes from several localities along the Pacific coast of Mexico. Among these specimens, we found 1 undescribed species of the genus Pseudopecoelus von Wicklen, 1946 (Pseudopecoelus ibunami n. sp.) of the intestine of the spotted grouper Epinephelus analogus Gill, 1863 (Actinopterygii: Serranidae) from Bahía de La Paz, Baja California Sur. This species is the number 40 known for this genus worldwide and the fifth registered parasitizing fishes from Mexico. The new species differs from the 17 species of Pseudopecoelus with vitelline follicles distributed anteriorly to ventral sucker by having a combination of the following traits: 1) body elongate, narrow, with irregular posterior end, 2) testes and ovary deeply-lobed, and 3) external seminal vesicle reaching only the anterior margin of ventral sucker.
