Thaparocleidus gangus sp. nov. (Monogenea: Dactylogyridae) fromgill filaments of Wallago attu Bloch and Schn., 1801, India
The examination of gill parasites from the freshwater shark Wallago attu Bloch and Schn., 1801 (Siluriformes: Siluridae) in India revealed the presence of a new species of the genus Thaparocleidus Jain, 1952 from the Ganga River, Uttar Pradesh, India. The new species can be discriminated from its co...
