Abstract: | Summary Five new species of myxosporean were found in the catfish Clarias lazera (Val.) in Israel. These species are described as: Henneguya laterocapsulata n. sp. (cyst-like trophozoites in the skin), H. suprabranchiae n. sp. (cyst-like trophozoites in the suprabranchial respiratory organs), Sphaerospora inaequalis n. sp. (spores in the lumen of the kidney tubules), Myxidium clariae n. sp. (spores in the gall bladder) and Myxobolus heterofilamentatus n. sp. (spores in the kidney, spleen, liver, suprabranchial respiratory organ, gills, heart and urinary bladder). Their taxonomic affinities to other species are discussed. ac]19860407 |
