title: Discovery of Laophontidae (Copepoda, Harpacticoida) from marine plastic debris: Pseudonychocamptus setadefectus sp. nov. and Heterolaophonte discophora (Willey, 1929)

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Cho, Kyuhee, Kim, Jong Guk, Lee, Jimin (2025): Discovery of Laophontidae (Copepoda, Harpacticoida) from marine plastic debris: Pseudonychocamptus setadefectus sp. nov. and Heterolaophonte discophora (Willey, 1929). ZooKeys 1251: 323-352, DOI: 10.3897/zookeys.1251.160858AbstractTwo species belonging to the family Laophontidae Scott T., 1905 were identified among harpacticoid copepods collected from marine plastic debris (MPD) stranded along the Korean coastline. These species were assigned to the genera Pseudonychocamptus Lang, 1944 and Heterolaophonte Lang, 1948. Pseudonychocamptus setadefectus sp. nov. conforms to the generic diagnosis, displaying sexual dimorphism in the armature of the swimming legs. It is distinguished from its six congeners by possessing only two endites on the maxillary syncoxa, notably lacking the proximal endite bearing the seta that is present in all other known species within the genus. Although most morphologically similar to P. colomboi Ceccherelli, 1988, the new species differs in several key characteristics, including the number of setae on the maxillary endopod, the relative length ratios of setae on the female P 5 exopod, the presence of an inner seta on the male P 5 exopod, and the asymmetry of the male P 6. The second species, Heterolaophonte discophora (Willey, 1929), was previously reported from the Atlantic coast of Canada and the Pacific coasts of the USA and Japan. The Korean specimens closely correspond to these previous records, yet exhibit intraspecific variation, particularly in the setal count on the female P 3 enp - 2. Additional morphological differences were also observed, including variations in the segmentation of the male P 3 endopod and in the number of setae on the maxillary endopod. Based on the sexually dimorphic traits observed in males, we propose the subdivision of the genus Heterolaophonte into four distinct species groups. The discovery of P. setadefectus sp. nov. and H. discophora on anthropogenic MPD underscores the potential role of such substrates as microhabitats for benthic harpacticoid copepods.

Pimelodus britskii is distinguished from its congeners by color pattern, having circular dark brown blotches usually smaller than one orbital diameter, regularly and scattered along the trunk. Differs from P. ortmanni by the following characters: body depth at posterior cleithral process greater than head length; lips not prominent; and maxillary barbel reaching or surpassing vertical drawn through median of adipose fin. Pimelodus britskii represents the second species of the genus Pimelodus from the rio Iguaçu basin.Pimelodus britskii nova espécie é descrita do rio Iguaçu na drenagem do rio Paraná na divisa dos estados do Paraná e Santa Catarina, Brasil. Exemplares dessa espécie foram erroneamente incluídos na série típica de Pimelodus ortmanni. Pimelodus britskii difere de suas congêneres pelo padrão de colorido, com máculas arredondadas, geralmente menores que o diâmetro do olho, dispersas regularmente no tronco. Difere de P. ortmanni pelos seguintes caracteres: altura do corpo no nível do processo cleitral posterior maior que o comprimento da cabeça; lábios não proeminentes; e barbilhão maxilar atingindo ou ultrapassando a linha vertical que passa pela região mediana da nadadeira adiposa. Pimelodus britskii representa uma segunda espécie do gênero Pimelodus na bacia do rio Iguaçu.

Both species have rather robust reproductive organs compared to their congeners. M. calleum sp. nov. is distinctive for its prominently glandular penis encompassed in an elongate, thick-walled seminal vesicle readily visible in squeeze preparations, as well as for its red coloration and lateral chordoid tissue. S. crezeei sp. nov. is similarly distinct from other species of Solenofilomorpha in having a more muscular, thick-walled seminal vesicle and thick, muscular sheath enclosing both seminal vesicle and penis, but also in having a sclerotized cone capping the penis. The cone is formed by converging necks of actin-rich cells encircling the muscular sheath where it joins the antrum.

title: Integrative taxonomy and phylogenetic analyses of two Ceratomyxa species (Myxozoa, Ceratomyxidae) from the China Sea, including a new species description

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Yang, Chengzhong, Yang, Yuting, Chen, Xue, Yang, Shenghua, Zhou, Yang, Ma, Honggang, Liu, Yang, Zhao, Yuanjun (2025): Integrative taxonomy and phylogenetic analyses of two Ceratomyxa species (Myxozoa, Ceratomyxidae) from the China Sea, including a new species description. ZooKeys 1250: 359-375, DOI: 10.3897/zookeys.1250.149263AbstractTwo species of Ceratomyxa (Myxozoa: Ceratomyxidae) from teleosts in the China Sea are investigated using an integrative approach which combines morphological characteristcs, parasitic traits, and molecular data including small subunit ribosomal DNA (SSU rDNA) and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions. A novel species, Ceratomyxa dactyloptena sp. nov., was identified from the gallbladder of Oriental flying gurnard Dactyloptena orientalis Cuvier, 1829, while Ceratomyxa siganicola Zhang, Zhao, Yang & Yang, 2019 was found in the gallbladder of Mottled spinefoot Siganus fuscescens Houttuyn, 1782 and Mozambique tilapia Oreochromis mossambicus Peters, 1852. Mature myxospores of C. dactyloptena sp. nov. exhibit a crescent shape in sutural view, with dimensions of 30.0 ± 1.3 (27.2–32.8) µm in thickness, 6.4 ± 0.4 (5.7–7.0) µm in length, and a posterior angle of 152.9 ± 3.7 ° (146.2–158.9 °). Pyriform polar capsules measured 2.9 ± 0.3 (2.3–3.3) µm long and 2.4 ± 0.3 (1.7–2.8) µm wide, with polar filaments coiled in 3–4 turns. The SSU rDNA sequence of C. dactyloptena sp. nov. was distinct from all known myxosporeans, showing the highest similarity (87.9 %) and the shortest genetic distance (0.1209) with C. filamentosi Kalatzis, Kokkari & Katharios, 2013. Molecular analyses revealed intraspecific variation among C. siganicola strains, with ITS rDNA being more sensitive than SSU rDNA in detecting these differences. Phylogenetic analysis placed C. dactyloptena sp. nov. in a clade with C. oxycheilinae Heiniger, Gunter & Adlard, 2008, while all C. siganicola strains clustered together, forming a sister clade to C. barnesi Gunter, Whipps & Adlard, 2009. Furthermore, the phylogenetic results indicated that ceratomyxid diversification is influenced not only by host specificity but also by geographic distribution.

Hexapinus okinawa sp. nov., described in this study, can be distinguished from its closest congener, H. simplex Rahayu & Ng, 2014, by a narrower carapace and setation on the carapace and ambulatory legs. Molecular phylogenetic analyses also support the difference of these two species. In addition, close morphological examination and the molecular phylogeny indicate at least two linages are included within Hexapinus. The polyphyletic nature of Hexapinus and the characteristics of the two lineages are discussed.

MycoKeys 108: 337-349, DOI: 10.3897/mycokeys.108.128197AbstractThe genus Dendrostoma is known to inhabit tree barks associated with branch canker diseases in China and several countries of Europe. Previous studies indicated that species of Dendrostoma prefer inhabiting fagaceous hosts, especially species of Castanea. In the present study, we obtained four isolates from cankered branches of Chinese chestnut (C. mollissima) in Rizhao City, Shandong Province, China. Morphological comparisons and phylogenetical analyses of a combined ITS - tef 1 - rpb 2 sequence matrix were conducted, which revealed two new species named Dendrostoma rizhaoense sp. nov. and D. tianii sp. nov. The new taxa are compared with other Dendrostoma species and comprehensive descriptions and illustrations are provided herein.
