Title

Synopsis of myxosporean species (Cnidaria: Myxozoa) parasitizing fishes from Vietnam

Abstract

This paper provides an updated checklist of species-level identified myxosporeans from marine and freshwater fishes in Vietnam. The list includes 51 nominal species (38 marine and 13 freshwater) belonging to 9 genera: Myxobolus Bütschli, 1882 (26 species); Kudoa Meglitsch, 1947 (6 species); Henneguya Thélohan, 1892 (6 species); Thelohanellus Kudo, 1933 (5 species); Unicapsula Davis, 1924 (2 species); Ceratomyxa Thélohan, 1892 (2 species), Zschokkella Auerbach, 1909 (2 species); Auerbachia Meglitsch, 1960 (1 species), and Meglitschia Kovaleva, 1988 (1 species). For each parasite species, information on myxospore morphology, line drawings, fish hosts, infection sites, and collection locality in Vietnam are reported. Where available, we also provide GenBank accession numbers for nucleotide sequence data. In addition, taxonomic status of several species was discussed and Myxobolus eszterbaueri nom. nov. is proposed as a junior homonym for Myxobolus hakyi Baska, Voronin, Eszterbauer, Müller, Marton & Molnár 2009, which is preoccupied.
