Justine Jean-Lou auteur aut IRD text journalArticle eng text/pdf born digital access Diplectanum parvus sp. nov. is described from the coral reef fish Cephalopholis urodeta collected off New Caledonia, South Pacific, and is the first diplectanid described from this fish. The new species has a very small male copulatory organ (24 mu m in length) and a minute body (246 mu m in length) and is close to D. nanus Justine, 2007 from which it can be distinguished by the shape of dorsal bars and various measurements. These species belong to a group of diplectanids found in groupers (Serranidae, Epinephelinae), characterised by small funnel-shaped male copulatory organs and no sclerotized female organs. The attribution of these parasites to Diplectanum Diesing is provisional. Other parasites are briefly listed. specialized Monogenea Diplectanidae Diplectanum parvus sp nov Serranidae Cephalopholis urodeta New caledonia 034 080 53 2 127-132 2008 1230-2821 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010042638 10.2478/s11686-008-0021-z 1230-2821 [F B010042638] https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010042638 https://www.documentation.ird.fr/intranet/publi/2008/07/010042638.pdf Accès réservé (Intranet de l'IRD) IRD - Base Horizon / Pleins textes 2008-08-08 2017-08-23 fdi:010042638 fre
