Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

Abstract |
BackgroundThe most convincing species of Allopodocotyle Pritchard, 1966 (Digenea: Opecoelidae) are known overwhelmingly from groupers (Serranidae: Epinephelinae). Six species of Allopodocotyle have been reported, collectively, from species of Cromileptes Swainson, 1839, Epinephelus Bloch, 1793 and Plectropomus Oken, 1817. These are A. epinepheli (Yamaguti, 1942), A. heronensis Downie & Cribb, 2011, A. manteri (Saoud & Ramadan, 1984), A. mecopera (Manter, 1940), A. plectropomi (Manter, 1963) and A. serrani (Yamaguti, 1952). In addition, a not yet fully described and unnamed seventh species, morphologically and phylogenetically close to A. epinepheli, was isolated from the orange-spotted grouper Epinephelus coioides (Hamilton, 1822) off Bali, Indonesia in 2016. An eighth species, again from E. coioides off Bali is described herein. MethodsMorphological and phylogenetic analyses justify the recognition of A. palmi sp. nov., which is also genetically different from the as yet unnamed congener from the same host and locality. For the first time, 3D confocal laser scanning microscopy was applied to study and distinguish Digenea taxonomically. We introduce the ‘Palm pattern’, a new simplified way to visualise morphometric differences of related digenean taxa. ResultsAllopodocotyle palmi sp. nov. is distinguished from its congeners that infect groupers by its elongate body with a size > 2.7 mm and diagonal testes. The ovary is located mainly, and the anterior testis completely, in the posterior half of the body; the uterine coils are in the fourth eighth of the body. The cirrus-sac is 0.75–1.4 (1.1) mm long, its posterior extremity is well separated from the anterior extent of the vitelline fields, just reaching the anterior border of uterine coils. In addition, Prosorhynchus maternus Bray & Justine, 2006 (Bucephalidae) was isolated from E. coioides, representing the first record in Indonesia and the third record for this fish species. ConclusionThe biodiversity research in Indonesia is enhanced with a new species description based on modern and newly applied techniques. |
