Thirty-one species of bark beetles were collected from nine genera of host plants at 29 locations in southern Manitoba during 1980–1983. Of these bark beetle species, 21 were infected by as many as 56 species of nematodes, based on examination of adult and juvenile stages. There were 30 species of allantonematids, all recovered from the hosts' haemocoel. Fourteen rhabditid species were recovered from the alimentary tract of 15 host species. Twelve aphelenchoids were found in both the haemocoel (of 10 host species) and the Malpighian tubules (of 2 host species). Three new species of Sulphuretylenchus are described. Sulphuretylenchus pseudoundulatus sp.nov. parasitized Polygraphus rufipennis (Kirby) collected in the Whiteshell Provincial Forest. Sulphuretylenchus nopimingi sp.nov. parasitized Pityokteines sparsus (LeConte) collected in Nopiming Provincial Park. Sulphuretylenchus posteruteri sp.nov. parasitized Ips perroti Swaine in the Belair Provincial Forest.

Three new species of the bopyrid genus Scyracepon Tattersall, 1905 are described from crabs collected on Pacific Islands: Scyracepon polynesiensis n. sp. from the Society Islands, S. pseudoliomerae n. sp. from the Mariana Islands, and S. biglobosus n. sp. from the Line Islands. The first two were found infesting Xanthias lamarckii and Pseudoliomera sp. (Xanthidae), a new host family for species of Scyracepon, and the last was found parasitizing Schizophrys aspera (Majidae). Scyracepon now includes 11 species, all but one known from single collections, infesting 12 host species in 9 brachyuran families. The discovery of three new species, each rare, suggests that crab parasites are undersampled, and further suggests that the low relative diversity of bopyrids known from brachyurans may partly reflect this undersampling. Keys to all species of Scyracepon and to all 31 genera of Keponinae are provided.

Three new species of the genus Syringophilopsis collected from the United States are described and figured: S. certhiae sp. nov. ex Certhia americana Bonaparte (Certhiidae) from California, S. sittae sp. nov. ex Sitta carolinensis Latham (Sittidae) also from California, and S. sturnellus sp. nov. ex Sturnella neglecta Audubon (Icteridae) from Arizona. Additionally, S. passerinae (Clark, 1964) is redescribed based on the material from the type host species, Passerina cyanea (Linnaeus) (Cardinalidae).

Species Specific

This study recognises five Australian species of Hirsutonuphis, of which three are newly described; a key to adults is provided. Juvenile stages of the three new species, ranging from recently settled to near adult individuals, are described, with emphasis on the appearance and replacement of provisional and permanent hooks. Anterior pseudocompound hooks are generally preceded by compound falcigers. Two types of anterior provisional subacicular hooks, representing relict structures, occur in juveniles. Posterior provisional hooks, representing precursor subacicular hooks, occur in juveniles and the most posterior segments of adults. This study demonstrates that while setal progression in the genus shows species specific differences, it follows a pattern that is similar for allied genera but not identical for the whole family.

A checklist of the 23 species of Ancyrocephalidae (Monogenea) parasitizing Tilapia species sampled from both sides of the Cameroon Volcanic Line is provided. As already reported elsewhere, Cichlidogyrus aegypticus in Cameroon shows two different shape of its vagina, and C. tilapiae, C. arthracanthus and C. tiberianus were found on a wide range of host species. Among the 23 studied species of Monogenea, three are considered new species and are described herein: Cichlidogyrus berminensis n. sp. from Tilapia bemini, characterized by a short penis with marked narrow heel, a simple and straight accessory piece ending in a large hook, and a medium sized pair of uncinuli I; Cichlidogyrus gillesi n. sp. from Tilapia guineensis, characterized by a large and trapezoid heel of the penis and a S-shaped and wrinkle walled vagina; and Scutogyrus vanhovei n. sp. from Tilapia mariae, characterized by the presence of a distinct swollen portion of the penis. From a parasite’s point of view, the CVL has no influence on species dispersion/distribution.

Three New Species

Three new species of Formicaphagus Carriker, 1957 parasitic on the avian families Thamnophilidae and Conopophagidae are described and illustrated. They and their type hosts are: F. mariae n. sp. from Conopophaga lineata (WiedNeuwied, 1831); F. thamnophili n.sp. from Thamnophilus r. ruficapillus Vieillot, 1816; and F. severus n.sp. from Mackenziaena severa (Lichtenstein, 1823). These chewing lice are the first lice described from these host species. These new species are distinguished from the previously described 11 species chiefly by having postspiracular setae from tergite III (from II in some individuals of the former species), the shape of the head and dorsal anterior plate, chaetotaxy and body measurements.

AbstractThe paper contains a review of quill mites of the subfamily Picobiinae (Acari: Prostigmata: Syringophilidae) associated with woodpeckers (Aves: Piciformes: Picidae). Three new species are described: Picobia mentalis Skoracki et Unsoeld sp. nov. from Picus mentalis Temminck, Neopicobia ea Skoracki et Unsoeld sp. nov. from Celeus flavus (St. Mueller) (type host), C. elegans (St. Mueller), C. torquatus (Boddaert), and Neopicobia freya Skoracki et Unsoeld sp. nov. from Dryocopus galeatus (Temminck) (type host) and Piculus rubiginosus (Swainson). Additionally, six new host species for Picobia heeri Haller, 1878 and 12 new host species for Picobia dryobatis (Fritsch, 1956) are reported. A complete list of the picobiines parasitising birds of the family Picidae is presented in the tabular form.

Summary Three parasitaphelenchid species, Parasitaphelenchus frontalis n. sp., P. costati n. sp. and Bursaphelenchus hirsutae n. sp., are described. Parasitaphelenchus frontalis n. sp. was isolated from the body cavity of Scolytus frontalis emerging from dead logs of Zelkova serrata collected from Kanagawa, Japan, and characterised by its four-lined lateral field in the adults and dome-shaped lip region of the parasitic juveniles. Whereas the two first-mentioned species were isolated from Alniphagus costatus, B. hirsutae n. sp. emerged from dead logs of Alnus hirsuta collected from Nagano, Japan. Parasitaphelenchus costati n. sp. and B. hirsutae n. sp. were recovered from the body cavity and the underside of the elytra of their host/carrier beetle, respectively. Parasitaphelenchus costati n. sp. is characterised by its three-lined lateral field in adults and the presence of a ventrally-directed hook on the lip region of the parasitic juvenile. Bursaphelenchus hirsutae n. sp. belongs to the eggersi group of the genus and is characterised by its three-lined lateral field, dorsally truncate condylus and pointed rostrum of males, and long, smoothly tapering and strongly ventrally recurved, female tail. Molecular characterisation is provided for all three new species and their phylogenys discussed.

Parasitic Isopod

Three new species in the parasitic isopod genus Bopyrissa Nierstrasz & Brender à Brandis, 1931, recorded from Kiribati, the Mariana Islands and French Polynesia, are described. These three species, B. distorta sp. nov., B. guamensis sp. nov. and B. oceania sp. nov., are the first species of the genus recorded from Oceania, occurring on three different hermit crab host species of genus Calcinus. The diversity of the genus is therefore increased to ten species. Bopyrissa distorta sp. nov. can be distinguished from congeners by the markedly distorted sinistral body of females and fused pleon of males. Bopyrissa guamensis sp. nov. differs from other dextral species of Bopyrissa in having a strikingly tuberculated edge to the pleomeres of females. Bopyrissa oceania sp. nov. differs from related species in that females possess eyes and that the barbula has smooth falcate projections on each side. A key to the ten species of Bopyrissa is presented, together with a tabular summary of their known geographic and host ranges.
