A New Species

The fresh-water fish Wallago attu (Bloch. And Schn.) was collected from local fish market of district Balrampur (U.P.) and examined 15 specimens, of which only one specimen was found infected with 17 specimens of said species. The site of infection being the gill filaments of the host. The present form differs from S. devraji, S. malabaricus and S.parvulus in having accessory pieces on dorsal anchors and presence of wings on dorsal anchors. Moreover, it differs from S. indicus, S octolytus, S. aori and S. sudhakari in having cephalic glands and different shape of copulatory complex and vagina. On subsequent study, the present form appear to be a new species of the genus Silurodescoides Gussev, 1974 and described as a new species and named Silurodescoides srivastavai n. sp. in the honor of Dr. C.B. Srivastava, Ex. Dy. Director, Zoological Survey of India, Kolkata.

A New Species

About a year ago when examining the intestinal contents of various fresh-water fishes of Bengal, I obtained a new acanthocephalan parasite, Acanthosentis dattai, from the small intestine of Barbus ticto and B. stigma. In a single host as many as twenty were obtained, but the average number of parasites taken from other hosts was four to ten. Some of these were found lying in a sluggish state in the lumen of the intestine. About the months of July and August some were found in copula.

Brachyplatystoma vaillanti is locally very common in the Amazon river, though, during my collecting tour in 1931, I examined only twenty-two examples, caught between Codajaz (nearly 1200 miles from the sea) and Gurupa. The local name of this Siluroid is Piramutāb; it is a fairly large fish (my largest specimen measuring 67 cm. in length) and possesses very long maxillary barbels (in some cases nearly as long as the body). From this fish I obtained two new species of Cestodes, one, the more numerous parasite, is a Phyllobothriid, and, so far as I am aware, this is the first occasion on which a Phyllobothriid has been described both from a fresh-water fish and from a Siluroid; and the other is a second and new species of Fuhrmann's genus Goezeella, very closely related to his G. siluri described in 1915.
