  • (Cestoda) from the Mangrove Whipray, Urogymnus Granulatus (Myliobatiformes: Dasyatidae), from the Solomon Islands and Northern Australia
    Institute of Parasitology, Biology Centre CAS Folia Parasitologica 2017, 64: 004 doi: 10.14411/fp.2017.004 http://folia.paru.cas.cz Research Article A new genus with two new species of lecanicephalidean tapeworms (Cestoda) from the mangrove whipray, Urogymnus granulatus (Myliobatiformes: Dasyatidae), from the Solomon Islands and northern Australia Kaylee S. Herzog and Kirsten Jensen Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, and the Biodiversity Institute, University of Kansas, Lawrence, Kansas, USA Abstract: A new lecanicephalidean genus is erected for cestodes previously recognised as “New Genus 12” (Polypocephalidae) in a phylogenetic analysis of the interrelationship of members of this order. Examination of the cestode fauna of the mangrove whipray, Urogymnus granulatus (Macleay) (Myliobatiformes: Dasyatidae) from the Solomon Islands and northern Australia revealed the existence of specimens representing two new species, consistent in morphology with “New Genus 12.” Corollapex gen. n. is unique among the 24 valid lecanicephalidean genera in its possession of an apical organ in the form of an external retractable central disk surrounded by eight concave muscular, membrane-bound pads and an internal heterogeneous glandular component. The two new spe- cies described herein, Corollapex cairae sp. n. (type species) and Corollapex tingoi sp. n., differ from one another in overall size and number of mature and immature proglottids, and are noted to demonstrate a differential distribution between mature and juvenile host individuals. Additional species diversity in the new genus, beyond C. cairae sp. n., C. tingoi sp. n., and “New Genus 12 n. sp. 1” of Jensen et al. (2016) is suggested. Corollapex gen. n. appears to be restricted to dasyatid hosts in the Indo-West Pacific region.

The chondrichthyan 6 fauna of South Africa is one of the richest in the world with 191 species, comprising 50 7 families and 103 genera. It consists of 30 families, 64 genera, and 111 species of sharks; 8 17 families, 36 genera, and 72 species of batoids; and, 3 families, 5 genera, and 8 species 9 of chimaeras. The most species-rich shark families are the whaler sharks Carcharhinidae 10 with 20 species followed by the deepwater catsharks Pentanchidae with 13 species.

Riwayat pengobatan yang diberikan adalah pemberian antibiotika enrofloxacin secara peroral. Periode terapi berlangsung selama sepuluh hari. Pengobatan terakhir adalah pemberian Hepavit® (ekstrak hati) dan injeksi intramuskular (IM) antibiotika enrofloxacin. Satu hari sebelum kematian, sampel darah dikoleksi dan kemudian diperiksa untuk mengetahui gambaran hematokrit dan beberapa parameter kimia darah. Hasil pemeriksaan darah ditemukan penurunan kadar blood urea nitrogen (BUN), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), dan alanine aminotransferase (ALT), peningkatan kadar glukosa, penurunan total protein dan kadar albumin, serta peningkatan kadar globulin. Pemeriksaan patologi anatomi ditemukan lesi pada ekor, di sekitar mata, dan clasper. Lesi hemoragik ditemukan di lapisan mukosa esofagus, lambung, dan kolon spiral. Gumpalan darah ditemukan di bawah lapisan tunika organ testis. Kerusakan organ hati secara makroskopis ditunjukkan dengan perubahan warna yang tidak homogen, pembengkakan organ, kongesti hati, dan konsistensi yang rapuh. Berdasarkan diagnosis morfologik, kausa kematian ikan diduga karena mengalami kondisi infeksi septikemia selama beberapa minggu sebelumnya.

The emphasis has been on fishes generally but these studies have also contributed greatly to our knowledge of chondrichthyans in the region, as well as across the broader Indo–West Pacific. An annotated checklist of cartilaginous fishes of the Philippines is compiled based on historical information and new data. A Taiwanese deepwater trawl survey off Luzon in 1995 produced specimens of 15 species including 12 new records for the Philippines and a few species new to science.

Dipper Occasional Paper of the IUCN Species Survival Commission No. 25 IUCN The World Conservation Union Donors to the SSC Conservation Communications Programme and Elasmobranch Biodiversity, Conservation and Management: Proceedings of the International Seminar and Workshop, Sabah, Malaysia, July 1997 The IUCN/Species Survival Commission is committed to communicate important species conservation information to natural resource managers, decision-makers and others whose actions affect the conservation of biodiversity. The SSC's Action Plans, Occasional Papers, newsletter Species and other publications are supported by a wide variety of generous donors including: The Sultanate of Oman established the Peter Scott IUCN/SSC Action Plan Fund in 1990. The Fund supports Action Plan development and implementation. To date, more than 80 grants have been made from the Fund to SSC Specialist Groups. The SSC is grateful to the Sultanate of Oman for its confidence in and support for species conservation worldwide. The Council of Agriculture (COA), Taiwan has awarded major grants to the SSC's Wildlife Trade Programme and Conservation Communications Programme. This support has enabled SSC to continue its valuable technical advisory service to the Parties to CITES as well as to the larger global conservation community. Among other responsibilities, the COA is in charge of matters concerning the designation and management of nature reserves, conservation of wildlife and their habitats, conservation of natural landscapes, coordination of law enforcement efforts as well as promotion of conservation education, research and international cooperation.
