The tapeta lucida of three species of teleosts were examined to determine the composition of the reflecting material. The fishes were bay anchovy Anchoa mitchilli (Engraulidae), gizzard shad Dorosoma cepedianum (Clupeidae) and pigfish Orthopristes chrysopterus (Haemulidae). The tapetum of each species was situated in the pigment epithelium of the eye. That of the pigfish contained triglycerides identified as chiefly glyceryl tridocosahexaenoate. A reduced pteridine, 7, 8-dihydroxanthopterin, occurred in the tapetum of the gizzard shad. Guanine occurred in the tapetum of the bay anchovy. The tapetum of the shad contained brightly reflecting particles about 0.5 μm in diameter There were 10.8 mg of dihydroxanthopterin in the tapetum of a shad (total body length 23 cm) and 0.46 mg of guanine in the tapetum of an anchovy (total body length 9 cm). This is the first report of a pteridine acting as a retinal reflector in vertebrates. Various aspects of retinal reflectors of teleosts are discussed and their variety and common characteristics commented upon.

AbstractTwo new species of Steinernema (Rhabditida), Steinernema loci sp. n. and S. thanhi sp. n., were isolated from beach soil in Thanhhoa and Hatinh provinces in the northern part of Vietnam. A combination of morphological, morphometric and rDNA-RFLP features indicated the distinctness of both species from other Steinernema spp. Diagnostic characters of Steinernema loci sp. n. include: total body length (896-1072 μm), distance from anterior end to excretory pore (EP = 71-86 μm), tail length (66-83 μm), lateral field in mid-body with eight ridges (nine distinct lines) and rounded, broad and smooth anterior end of the third stage infective juvenile; first generation males were characterised by body width, spicule length and the ratio spicule length : anal body width (SW). Diagnostic characters of Steinernema thanhi sp. n. third stage infective juveniles include: total body length (720-960 μm), EP (68-84 μm), tail length (52-72 μm), lateral field in mid-body with eight ridges (nine distinct lines) and rounded, broad and smooth anterior end. Spicule length, ratio SW and arrangement of genital papillae characterised the first generation males.

Kroyeria caseyi sp.nov. (Kroyeriidae: Siphonostomatoida) is described from male and female specimens collected from gills of night sharks (Carcharhinus signatus (Poey, 1868)) captured in the western North Atlantic. Kroyeria caseyi is the only known member of the Kroyeriidae that is a mesoparasite, females being found partially embedded in the interbranchial septa of their hosts. Kroyeria caseyi is easily distinguished from other Kroyeria species by the armature of its swimming legs. Additionally, the genital complex of female K. caseyi is extremely long, composing up to 96% of the total body length. With some females reaching over 6 cm long, K. caseyi dwarfs all known congeners. First-stage nauplii collected from ruptured egg sacs are also described.

Piauçus (Leporinus macrocephalus), were raised in 300 m² ponds (density of 10 fish/m²) presenting asphyxia signals and daily mortality of 27 fishes. Specimens with 8-cm total body length, were collected for necropsy. Mucus of body surface and pieces of organs were collected and examined microscopically, in wet mounts, stained or in histological sections. The smears examination showed the presence of several spores in the secondary lamellae of the gill filaments, identified as Henneguya leporinicola n.sp (Myxozoa: Myxobolidae). Histopatological study showed epithelial hyperplasia and fulfilling of the spaces between the secondary lamellae, congestion and teleangiectasia sinusoidal. It was also observed hyperplasia of the goblet cells and several cysts of parasite with 70.3mum diameter. Such cysts were situated among the secondary lamellae, covered or not by the hyperplasic epithelium. With this diagnostic, three applications of formalin solution 10 ml/m³ were carried out. Fifteen days after that, fish were examined again to ascertain whether the treatment was efficient on disease caused by the protozoa. The tissue alterations present in the gills after the treatment were just a moderate sinusoidal congestion and a slight epithelial hyperplasia on the base of the secondary lamellae.

AbstractTwo species of Kalicephalus Molin, 1861 were collected from the intestine of Varanus salvator (Laurenti, 1768) from Guangdong Wildlife Rescue Centre, Guangzhou, Guangdong Province, China. Kalicephalus (Kalicephalus) guangdongensis sp. nov. is similar to K. (K.) schadi Ogden, 1966 and K. (K.) schadi fotedari Kalia et Nayital, 1989 in having extremely long spicules, but differs from the latter in the relative length of spicules (spicules longer than the total body length instead of spicules almost three quarters of the total body length). Kalicephalus (Kalicephalus) schadi fotedari Kalia et Nayital, 1989 is reported for the first time in China, and Varanus salvator is a new host record.

The zooplankton assemblages in Chilean lakes are characterized by their markedly low species numbers and dominance of calanoid copepods. Nevertheless, the effects of zooplanktivorous fish predation on zooplankton size in these communities have not yet been studied in detail. The aim of the present study was to analyse the total length in the main groups of zooplanktonic crustaceans in Chilean lakes: Copepoda: Calanoida, and Cladocera: Daphniidae, as well as “small cladocerans” (specifically the families Bosminidae and Chydoridae). The results revealed that in the presence of fish, total body length decreased significantly for calanoid copepods, whereas for other groups that presence has no significant effect. In sites with fishes, daphniids are significantly larger in comparison with the other groups of the zooplankton community, whereas in sites without fishes calanoids are significant larger in comparison with those other groups. These results would indicate that calanoids would be the main prey for zooplanktivorous fishes in Chilean lakes. Similar results have been reported for Argentinean Patagonian lakes.

Mugwort is a perennial in the Compositae family distributed throughout Asia and Europe. The leaves are reported to have various pharmaceutical properties, e.g., antibacterial, antiviral, antitussive, and hemostatic properties, and have been used in traditional Chinese medicine for more than 2,000 years. In August 2011, a field of mugwort in Kunming, Yunnan Province, China, exhibited more than 90% incidence of whitish and rounded galls on the leaves. There were approximately 10 galls on each leaf, impacting the quality of the leaves for medicinal use. Parasitic nematodes were found upon dissection of the galls, then eggs, second-stage juveniles (J2), and mature males and females were observed. Through the morphologic observation of juveniles and female and male adults, the parasitic nematode was identified as Subanguina moxae (Yokoo and Choi, 1968) Brzeski, 1981 (3). Key morphological features are as follows: eggs (n = 20) measured 54.0 to 71.4 × 24.1 to 30.0 μm; J2 (n = 20) had the following characteristics: body length 689.3 to 873.2 μm (x = 775.5 μm); stylet length 8.2 to 9.8 μm (x = 8.8 μm); tail length 49.5 to 74.5 μm (x = 60.1 μm); a (total body length/maximum body width) ranged from 28.6 to 38.6 μm (x = 34.1 μm); and c (total body length/the length of the tail) ranged from 11.2 to 16.0 μm (x = 13.0 μm). Females (n = 20) had the following characteristics: body length 1,252.8 to 1,665.2 μm (x = 1,475.7 μm); stylet length 7.2 to 9.2 μm (x = 8.2 μm); V of 88.0 to 92.3 μm (x = 89.6 μm); a ranged from 17.6 to 24.5 μm (x = 21.3 μm); and c ranged from 20.2 to 28.9 μm (x = 22.8 μm). Males (n = 20) had the following characteristics: body length 994.2 to 1,453.6 μm (x = 1,253.2 μm); stylet length 7.5 to 9.9 μm (x= 9.1 μm); tail length 69.2 to 88.1 μm (x = 78.0 μm); spicule length 22.2 to 33.4 μm (x = 29.4 μm); gubernaculum length 10.4 to 14.2 μm (x = 12.2 μm); a ranged from 23.1 to 37.2 μm (x = 29.9 μm); and c ranged from 13.9 to 18.7 μm (x = 16.1 μm). Amplification of the rDNA-internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region and the D2/D3 (1) fragments of the 28S RNA with universal primers rDNA1/rDNA2 and D2A/D3B yielded PCR fragments of 934 bp and 754 bp, respectively. The ITS sequence (JN865234) and D2D3 sequence (JN885540) were submitted to GenBank. The ITS sequence (JN865234) exhibited 99.4% similarity with Mesoanguina moxae (AF396314) (synonym of S. moxae) (4). S. moxae has been identified from the common mugwort in Japan (2) and in China, was reported to infect wheat in Guizhou Province, but to our knowledge, this is the first report of this nematode affecting mugwort in Yunnan, China.
