METHODS: All the relevant specimens registered in Australian museums were examined. Those held as permanent slide preparations were examined directly and those stored in 70% ethanol were examined as temporary wet mounts, after clearing in lactophenol, using an Olympus BH-2 microscope with differential interference optics. Measurements were made with an eyepiece micrometer and figures drawn using a drawing tube.
RESULTS: All the material registered as either Longicollum edmondsi or Paralongicollum sp. was determined to be Paralongicollum edmondsi (Golvan, 1969) comb. nov. based, amongst other characters, on the morphology of the neck.
CONCLUSIONS: The significance of known host species of P. edmondsi and their geographical distribution around the Australian coast was analysed. The geographical distribution of the genus Paralongicollum, Amin, Bauer & Siderov, 1991, across the Indo Pacific was compared to that of the acanthocephalan genus Sclerocollum Schmidt & Paperna, 1978.
方法:对澳大利亚博物馆注册的所有相关标本进行了检查。直接检查作为永久性载玻片制剂的那些,并将储存在70%乙醇中的那些作为临时湿支架进行检查。在乳酚中清除后,使用具有差分干涉光学的奥林巴斯BH-2显微镜。使用目镜测微计进行测量,并使用拉管绘制图形。
结果:所有注册为Longicollumedmondsi或Paralongicollumsp。被确定为Paralongicollumedmondsi(Golvan,1969)梳子。11月。基于,在其他角色中,颈部的形态。
结论:分析了埃蒙德西已知寄主物种及其在澳大利亚海岸的地理分布的意义。Paralongicollum属的地理分布,阿明,Bauer&Siderov,1991年,在整个印度太平洋与无头头菌属Schmidt和Paperna进行了比较,1978.
