A New Species

The fresh-water cat fish Mystus seenghala (Ham.) was collected from local fish market of district Faizabad presently known as Ayodhya (U.P.) and examined 25 specimens, of which only 02 specimens were found infected with 08 specimens of said species. The sites of infections being gill filaments of the host. There are three species of the genus Neocalceostomawas discovered earlier viz.Neocalceostoma elongatum; Neocalceostoma microformis and Neocalceostoma chauhani. The present form differs from all the known species. It differs from Neocalceostoma microformis and Neocalceostoma chauhani in having larger body, difference in ratio of haptor and body, difference in shape of cirrus and gonads. The present form also differs from Neocalceostoma elongatum in having different shape of haptor, absence of oesophagus and difference in shape of cirrus. The present form is therefore, described as a new species Neocalceostoma guptai n. sp. named in honor of Dr. S. P. Gupta for his valuable contribution in the field of taxonomy

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.

Nd2 Gene

New amphibian species have been constantly discovered throughout southern China, including from areas close to heavily populated cities that remain poorly surveyed for amphibian diversity. We describe a new species of the newt genus Paramesotriton from Fujian, a developed province on the southeastern coast of mainland China. The mitochondrial genealogy suggests that the new species is the sister taxon to Paramesotriton hongkongensis, separated by an uncorrected pairwise distances of 5.8% at the ND2 gene fragment analyzed. In addition to the genetic divergence, the new species can be readily differentiated from its congeners by having: a very rough skin; a continuous, orange, vertebral ridge; few warts on each side of the vertebral ridge; numerous small irregular orange-red or yellow spots on the chin, venter, underside of axillae, flanks, lateral side of the tail, base of limbs and cloaca; a small groove at the base of the vomerine tooth series; relatively long tail, relatively flat cloaca in females; normally developed eyes, and the absence of vestigial gills and gill filaments in adults.

Stratigraphic Range

Fossil isopod crustaceans in the suborder Phreatoicidea have a known stratigraphic range from the Carboniferous to the Jurassic. Until now, all Mesozoic records of this group were thought to occur in fresh water habitats. A new phreatoicidean isopod fossil of the Triassic Luoping marine fauna, Yunnan Province, China, is described. The new species, based on several exceptionally complete specimens, is assigned to the genusProtamphisopusNicholls and the family Amphisopidae Nicholls. This Chinese record is the first report of a Mesozoic-age phreatoicidean isopod outside of Gondwanan terranes, requiring a revision of known biogeographic patterns of the Phreatoicidea. Whether this record is from a marine habitat or is the result of a secondary deposition is not certain.SottyellaRacheboef, Schram and Vidal from the Carboniferous (Stephanian) Lagerstätte of Montceaules-Mines that was assigned to this suborder may be a decapod. Therefore, it has no relationship to this new species.
