Ligophorus saladensis n. sp. (Monogenea: Ancyrocephalidae) from Mugil platanus Günther in Samborombón Bay, Argentina

Abstract: Ligophorus saladensis n. sp. (Monogenea: Dactylogyridae) is described from the gills of the grey mullet Mugil platanus Günther collected in Samborombón Bay, Argentina. The new species differs from L. mugilinus Euzet & Suriano, 1977, L. mediterraneus Sarabeev, Balbuena & Euzet, 2005 and L. huitermpe Fernandez, 1987 by the morphology of the accessory piece of the male copulatory organ and mean values derived from measurements of the sclerotised hard-parts. This is the second report of monogeneans on M. platanus … Show more

“…Specimens found in this host were identified as Ligophorus uruguayense and L. saladensis, both originally described from M. liza in Uruguay and Argentina, respectively (Failla Siquier andOstrowski de Núñez 2009, Marcotegui andMartorelli 2009). Both species are very similar to each other, but could be most reliably distinguished on the basis of the shape of the accessory piece of the male copulatory complex (see Failla Siquier andOstrowski de Núñez 2009, Marcotegui andMartorelli 2009).…”
