MizELLE,2 AND F. M. BiLQEES3 ABSTRACT: Neocalceostoma elongatum Tripathi, 1957 (Dactylogyridae: Calceostomatinae) is redescribed from the gills of Arius serratus (Day), Ariidae, from the Karachi Coast, Pakistan. The diagnosis of Neocalceostoma Tripathi, 1957, is emended, and Neocalceostomoides gen. n. is proposed for N. arii (Unnithan, 1964) comb. n. A new dactylogyrid subfamily, the Pseudomurraytrematinae, is erected for Pseudomurraijtrema Bychowsky, 1957, Anonchohaptor Mueller, 1938, Mijzotrema Rogers, 1967, and Icelanonchohaptor Leiby, Kritsky, and Peterson, 1972. The Calceostomatidae (Parona and Perugia, 1890), containing Calceostoma van Beneden, 1858, Calceostomella Palombi, 1943, Neocalceostoma Tripathi, 1957, Paracalceostoma Caballero and Bravo-Hollis, 1959, Pseudocalceostoma Yamaguti, 1963, Eychowskya Nagibina, 1968, Dicrumenia Mamaev, 1969, and Neocalceostomoides gen. n., is reduced to a subfamily of the Dactylogyridae Bychowsky, 1933. Yamaguti (1963) included the following in cept that Mayer's acid carmalum, Semichon's the Dactylogyroidea: Bothitrematidae, Calceo- carmalum, and Delafield's hematoxylin were stomatidae, Dactylogyridae, Diplectanidae, and used individually to differentiate internal anat- Protogyrodactylidae. Based on the study of omy; serial transverse sections of two N. Protogyrodactylus spp., Price and Pike (.1.969) elongatum were also used.

Specimens of Tripathi, 1957 (Calceostomatidae) from the N. elongatum were deposited in the helmintho- gills of Arius serratus (Day) (Ariidae) from the logical collections of the U.S. National Museum Karachi Coast, Pakistan. Examination of these (No. 73106) and the University of Nebraska specimens and members of other genera of State Museum (No. 20689).

    click for previous page CEPHALOPODS 688 Cephalopods Introduction and GeneralINTRODUCTION Remarks AND GENERAL REMARKS by M.C. Dunning, M.D. Norman, and A.L. Reid iving cephalopods include nautiluses, bobtail and bottle squids, pygmy cuttlefishes, cuttlefishes, Lsquids, and octopuses. While they may not be as diverse a group as other molluscs or as the bony fishes in terms of number of species (about 600 cephalopod species described worldwide), they are very abundant and some reach large sizes. Hence they are of considerable ecological and commercial fisheries importance globally and in the Western Central Pacific. Remarks on MajorREMARKS Groups of CommercialON MAJOR Importance GROUPS OF COMMERCIAL IMPORTANCE Nautiluses (Family Nautilidae) Nautiluses are the only living cephalopods with an external shell throughout their life cycle. This shell is divided into chambers by a large number of septae and provides buoyancy to the animal. The animal is housed in the newest chamber. A muscular hood on the dorsal side helps close the aperture when the animal is withdrawn into the shell. Nautiluses have primitive eyes filled with seawater and without lenses. They have arms that are whip-like tentacles arranged in a double crown surrounding the mouth. Although they have no suckers on these arms, mucus associated with them is adherent. Nautiluses are restricted to deeper continental shelf and slope waters of the Indo-West Pacific and are caught by artisanal fishers using baited traps set on the bottom. The flesh is used for food and the shell for the souvenir trade. Specimens are also caught for live export for use in home aquaria and for research purposes.

  • Baylisascariasis
    Baylisascariasis Importance Baylisascaris procyonis, an intestinal nematode of raccoons, can cause severe neurological and ocular signs when its larvae migrate in humans, other mammals and birds. Although clinical cases seem to be rare in people, most reported cases have been Last Updated: December 2013 serious and difficult to treat. Severe disease has also been reported in other mammals and birds. Other species of Baylisascaris, particularly B. melis of European badgers and B. columnaris of skunks, can also cause neural and ocular larva migrans in animals, and are potential human pathogens. Etiology Baylisascariasis is caused by intestinal nematodes (family Ascarididae) in the genus Baylisascaris. The three most pathogenic species are Baylisascaris procyonis, B. melis and B. columnaris. The larvae of these three species can cause extensive damage in intermediate/paratenic hosts: they migrate extensively, continue to grow considerably within these hosts, and sometimes invade the CNS or the eye. Their larvae are very similar in appearance, which can make it very difficult to identify the causative agent in some clinical cases. Other species of Baylisascaris including B. transfuga, B. devos, B. schroeder and B. tasmaniensis may also cause larva migrans. In general, the latter organisms are smaller and tend to invade the muscles, intestines and mesentery; however, B. transfuga has been shown to cause ocular and neural larva migrans in some animals. Species Affected Raccoons (Procyon lotor) are usually the definitive hosts for B. procyonis. Other species known to serve as definitive hosts include dogs (which can be both definitive and intermediate hosts) and kinkajous. Coatimundis and ringtails, which are closely related to kinkajous, might also be able to harbor B.

Fundación La Salle de Ciencias Naturales. Apartado 144 Porlama,. Isla de Margarita, Venezuela. ABSTRACT Marine endolithic and wood-boring bivalve mollusks living in rocks, corals, wood, and shells were surveyed on the Caribbean coast of Venezuela at Isla Margarita between 2004 and 2008. These surveys were supplemented with boring mollusk data from malacological collections in Venezuelan museums. A total of 571 individuals, corresponding to 3 orders, 4 families, 15 genera, and 20 species were identified and analyzed. The species with the widest distribution were: Leiosolenus aristatus which was found in 14 of the 24 localities, followed by Leiosolenus bisulcatus and Choristodon robustus, found in eight and six localities, respectively. The remaining species had low densities in the region, being collected in only one to four of the localities sampled. The total number of species reported here represents 68% of the boring mollusks that have been documented in Venezuelan coastal waters. This study represents the first work focused exclusively on the examination of the cryptofaunal mollusks of Isla Margarita, Venezuela. KEY WORDS Shipworms, cryptofauna, Teredinidae, Pholadidae, Gastrochaenidae, Mytilidae, Petricolidae, Margarita Island, Isla Margarita Venezuela, boring bivalves, endolithic. INTRODUCTION The lithophagans (Mytilidae) are among the Bivalve mollusks from a range of families have more recognized boring mollusks.

  • Toxocara Cati (Schrank, 1788) (Nematoda, Ascarididae) in Different Wild Feline Species in Brazil: New Host Records
    Biotemas, 26 (3): 117-125, setembro de 2013 http://dx.doi.org/10.5007/2175-7925.2013v26n3p117117 ISSNe 2175-7925 Toxocara cati (Schrank, 1788) (Nematoda, Ascarididae) in different wild feline species in Brazil: new host records Moisés Gallas * Eliane Fraga da Silveira Departamento de Biologia, Museu de Ciências Naturais Universidade Luterana do Brasil, CEP 92425-900, Canoas – RS, Brasil *Autor para correspondência [email protected] Submetido em 07/03/2013 Aceito para publicação em 14/05/2013 Resumo Toxocara cati (Schrank, 1788) (Nematoda, Ascarididae) em diferentes espécies de felinos silvestres no Brasil: novos registros de hospedeiros. Esta é a primeira descrição detalhada de Toxocara cati parasitando felinos na América do Sul. Dezessete felinos silvestres (Leopardus colocolo, Leopardus geoffroyi, Leopardus tigrinus e Puma yagouaroundi) atropelados foram coletados em diferentes municípios do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil. A morfometria de machos e fêmeas permitiu a identificação de espécimes como T. cati. Os helmintos foram encontrados no estômago e intestino dos hospedeiros com prevalência de 66,6% em L. colocolo, L. geoffroyi e L. tigrinus; e 60% em P. yagouaroundi. Foram calculados os parâmetros ecológicos para cada hospedeiro e, L. colocolo teve a maior intensidade de infecção (22,5 helmintos/hospedeiro). Este é o primeiro registro de T. cati parasitando quatro espécies de felinos silvestres no Sul do Brasil e, dois novos registros de hospedeiros para esse parasito. Palavras-chave: Felinos; Leopardus; Puma; Sul do Brasil; Toxocara Abstract This is the first detailed description ofToxocara cati parasitizing felines in South America. Seventeen run over wild felines (Leopardus colocolo, Leopardus geoffroyi, Leopardus tigrinus, and Puma yagouaroundi) were collected from different towns in the State of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil.
