Description of two new species of the genus Thaparocleidus Jain, 1952 (Monogenea, Dactylogyridae) from freshwater fish in India: morphological and molecular phylogenetic evidence
Abstract The present paper describes the taxonomy of two new monogeneans, namely, Thaparocleidus longiphallus sp. n. and T. siloniansis sp. n., based on morphological, morphometric and molecular biological analysis, collected from the fish Wallago attu (Bloch & Schn.) and Silonia silondia (Ham.)...
