RÉSUMÉ

During May 2022 and again in March 2023, 5 quillbacks, Carpiodes cyprinus, were collected from the Verdigris River, Wagoner County, Oklahoma (n = 1), and the Black River, Lawrence County, Arkansas (n = 4), and their gill, gallbladder, fins, integument, musculature, and other major organs were macroscopically examined for myxozoans. Gill lamellae from the single quillback from the Verdigris River was infected with a new myxozoan, Thelohanellus oklahomaensis n. sp. Qualitative and quantitative morphological data were obtained from fresh and formalin-fixed preserved myxospores, and molecular data consisted of a 1,767 base pair sequence of the partial small subunit (SSU) ribosomal RNA gene. Phylogenetic analysis grouped T. oklahomaensis n. sp. with myxozoans known to infect North American catostomids and Eurasian cyprinids. Histological examination localized plasmodia to an intralamellar developmental site and revealed a possible vestige of a second polar capsule. Although plasmodia markedly expanded lamellae, there were no associated epithelial or inflammatory changes. Thelohanellus oklahomaensis n. sp. is the only member of the genus known to infect the gills of C. cyprinus.

RÉSUMÉ

The southern striped shiner, Luxilus chrysocephalus isolepis (Hubbs & Brown) is a relatively large minnow belonging to the true minnow family Leuciscidae Bonaparte. Between May 2020 and January 2022, 55 L. c. isolepis were collected from watersheds in Montgomery (n = 6), Polk (n = 17) and Sevier (n = 32) counties, Arkansas, USA, and their gills, gallbladders, urinary bladders, fins, integument, other major organs, and musculature were examined for myxozoans. Gills of 11 (34%) individual southern striped shiners from Sevier County were infected with a new myxozoan, Myxobolus carlhubbsi n. sp. A qualitative and quantitative morphological description was based on formalin-fixed preserved myxospores, and molecular data consisted of a 1,970 base pair sequence of the partial small subunit rRNA gene from ethanol-preserved specimens. Histologically, plasmodia filled and expanded interlamellar troughs. Hyperplastic epithelial and goblet cells filled interlamellar troughs adjacent to plasmodia, but inflammatory response was limited to scattered lymphocytes. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that M. carlhubbsi n. sp. is a member of a clade of species with pyriform myxospores parasitizing North American Pogonichthyinae Girard and North American and Eurasian Leuciscinae Bonaparte. This is the first report of a myxozoan from L. c. isolepis.

RÉSUMÉ

Pseudomurraytrema fergusoni n. sp. is described from the Pealip Redhorse, Moxostoma pisolabrum from the Black River (White River drainage), Lawrence County, Arkansas, USA. This represents the second monogenean described from M. pisolabrum as well as the second species of Pseudomurraytrema reported from an Arkansas catostomid. The description includes partial 18S rRNA and 28S rRNA gene sequences (732 bp and 851 bp, respectively), helping fill a void in sequence data from North American monogeneans, particularly those in the genus Pseudomurraytrema. In addition, histopathologic changes associated with the infection resulted in severe localized pathologic lesions in gills of the host, suggesting compromise of respiratory surfaces within affected areas adjacent to the worms.

RÉSUMÉ

Between November 2018 and December 2021, 35 juvenile and adult Western Creek Chubsuckers, Erimyzon claviformis, were collected from 5 sites in western and southern Arkansas (Ouachita and Red River drainages), and their gills, gallbladders, fins, integument, other major organs, and musculature were examined for myxozoans. The fins of 12 (34%) individuals were infected with a novel species, Myxobolus stuartae n. sp. Qualitative and quantitative morphological data were obtained from formalin-fixed preserved myxospores. Molecular data from ethanol-preserved specimens consisted of a 2,028 base pair sequence of small subunit (SSU) ribosomal DNA (rDNA) from a specimen collected in Nevada County. Three other specimens from Polk County yielded partial SSU rDNA sequences that were identical to the first sequence. Phylogenetic analyses placed M. stuartae n. sp. as sister to Myxobolus bibullatus (Kudo, 1934), both clustering with other catostomid-infecting myxobolids. This is the first fin-infecting myxozoan reported from E. claviformis.

RÉSUMÉ

During October and November 2021, 33 creek chubs, Semotilus atromaculatus, were collected from 3 sites in Polk County, Arkansas (Ouachita River drainage), and their gills, gallbladder, fins, integument, musculature, and other major organs were examined for myxozoans. The gills of 9 (27%) were infected with a new myxozoan, Myxobolus fountainae n. sp. Qualitative and quantitative morphological data were from fresh and formalin-fixed preserved spores, while molecular data consisted of a 1918 base pair sequence of the partial small subunit ribosomal RNA gene. Phylogenetic analysis grouped M. fountainae n. sp. with the other leuciscid-infecting myxobolids from North America and within a larger clade of European myxozoans. In addition, histological information is provided on the infection. A previous record of Myxobolus muelleriBütschli, 1882, from the gills and ureters of S. atromaculatus is considered invalid and represents an unknown species. Myxobolus fountainae n. sp. is the only named myxozoan known to infect the gill filaments of S. atromaculatus, whereas Myxobolus pendula (Guilford, 1967) infects the gill arches.

RÉSUMÉ

During April 2016 and again in November 2021, four Chain Pickerels, Esox niger were collected from Union (n = 3) and Nevada (n = 1) counties, Arkansas, USA, and 65 Grass Pickerels, Esox americanus vermiculatus were collected between January 2015 and December 2021 from four counties of Arkansas (n = 31) and McCurtain County, Oklahoma, USA (n = 34), and examined for myxozoans. Gallbladders of an individual E. niger from Nevada County, Arkansas, as well as a single individual of E. a. vermiculatus from Sevier County, Arkansas, were infected with a new myxozoan, Myxidium whippsi n. sp. Qualitative and quantitative morphological data were from formalin-fixed preserved myxospores while molecular data (SSU rRNA gene) consisted of 2031bp (host: E. niger) and 1723 bp (host: E. a. vermiculatus) partial sequences of the small subunit ribosomal RNA gene. Phylogenetic analysis placed M. whippsi n. sp. in a clade with two other myxozoans, Zschokkella nova and Myxidium truttae, previously reported from cyprinids and salmonids, respectively. We document the first report of a myxozoan from E. a. vermiculatus.

RÉSUMÉ

A revisionary study revealed two species of monogeneans, Dactylogyrus crucis Rogers, 1967 and Dactylogyrus lythruri sp. n., parasitising Lythrurus Jordan (formerly a subgenus of Notropis Rafinesque, 1818). New records and updated taxonomy of seven of 12 known minnows of the genus of Lythrurus are provided for D. crucis. A record of Dactylogyrus attenuatus Mizelle et Klucka, 1953 (syn. Dactylogyrus umbratilus [Kimpel, 1939], nomen nudum) on Lythrurus umbratilis (Girard) is referrable to D. crucis. Dactylogyrus lythruri is described from eight species of Lythrurus. It most closely resembles Dactylogyrus beckeri Cloutman, 1987, but is distinguished by having a smaller base of the male copulatory organ (MCO) and lacking a ventral enlargement of the distal end of the basal process. Previous reports of Dactylogyrus banghami Mizelle et Donahue, 1944 and Dactylogyrus cf. beckeri Cloutman, 1987 from Lythrurus atrapiculus (Snelson) and Lythrurus bellus (Hay) from Alabama, and Dactylogyrus confusus Mueller, 1938 from L. umbratilis in Illinois are herein relegated to D. lythruri. Four species of Lythrurus appeared not to be infected with Dactylogyrus.

RÉSUMÉ

A new species of monogenean, Dactylogyrus pisolabrae n. sp., was found parasitizing the gills of the Pealip Redhorse, Moxostoma pisolabrum, from Oklahoma. Dactylogyrus pisolabrae is morphologically similar to Dactylogyrus apos, Dactylogyrus atripinnei, Dactylogyrus duquesnei, and Dactylogyrus niger, all parasitizing other species of suckers, by possessing a robust, sickle-shaped male copulatory organ, but differs from these and all other species of North American Dactylogyrus by possessing 2 unique wing-like projections opposite each other on the proximal portion of the accessory piece. Dactylogyrus pisolabrae represents the first monogenean reported from the Pealip Redhorse.

RÉSUMÉ

BACKGROUND: The gills of Red River Pupfish (Cyprinodon rubrofluviatilis) collected from Kansas and Texas, U.S.A., were found to be infected with three monogenoideans, Fundulotrema prolongis, Gyrodactylus rubrofluviatilae n. sp., and a species of Salsuginus. RESULTS: Gyrodactylus rubrofluviatilae n. sp. appears to be a member of a group of six closely related species possessing hamuli with mesially folded roots and a linguiform ventral bar shield, and parasitizing closely related species of Cyprinodon of the North American Gulf Coast and inland waters of the Southwestern United States and northern México. Gyrodactylus rubrofluviatilae n. sp. differs from its close congeners in the morphology of the hamuli, ventral bar, ventral bar shield, and marginal hooks. Because the morphology of the male copulatory complex was not determined of what we believe will eventually be a new species of Salsuginus, a species description is deferred. This is the first report of any parasite from this host. CONCLUSIONS: Many North American species currently recognized within the Cyprinodontiformes have not yet been surveyed for species of Fundulotrema, Gyrodactylus, or Salsuginus. This, coupled with the high host specificity generally recognized for these monogeneans, portends there are likely additional new species yet to be discovered. When possible, to help augment morphological data, further studies should employ comprehensive intra- and interspecies molecular analyses to help resolve host-parasite phylogenies.

RÉSUMÉ

Aethycteron robisoni n. sp. is described from the sunburst darter, Etheostoma mihileze Mayden (Perciformes: Percidae), in the Arkansas River Drainage of the Ozark Region in the Central Highlands of Arkansas, USA. Aethycteron robisoni morphologically most closely resembles A. caerulei Suriano & Beverley-Burton, 1982, A. moorei (Mizelle, 1940) and A. nigrei Suriano & Beverly-Burton, 1982, by possessing a male copulatory organ with a distinct distal curvature and spiraling sheath. The haptoral sclerites of A. robisoni, with the exception of the hooks, are distinctly larger than those of the other three species. This is the first time a monogenean parasite has been reported from E. mihileze as well as the first time the genus Aethycteron Suriano & Beverley-Burton, 1982 has been reported from Arkansas, USA.
