Two New Species of Cardicola (Digenea: Sangulnicolidae) in Drums (Sciaenidae) from Mississippi and Louisiana
Two new species of Cardicola (Digenea: Sanguinicolidae) are described from the heart of drums (Perciformes: Sciaenidae) in and off Mississippi and Louisiana. Cardicola palmeri n. sp. infects the black drum, Pogonias cromis, and, in mature individuals, is distinguished from its congeners by the combi...
