On Devendrosentis garuai, Gen. et sp. nov (Neoechinorhynchidae Southwell and Macfie, 1925, Quadrigyridae Van Cleave 1920, Acanthocephala from a fresh water Indian fish Clupisoma garua (Ham)
Dept. of Zoology. Ranchi College, Ranchi Univ. Ranchi - 8, India.
The present paper gives an account of a new genus and species of an Acanthocephala of the family Quadrigyridae Van Cleave, 1920, collected from the intestine of a fresh water fish P. garua (= Clupisoma garua) at Patna. Only one of a large number of fishes examined harboured these worms. Their incidence, therefore, appears to be low. The number of specimens recovered from the host were two males and six females.
Résumé
Les auteurs décrivent un nouveau genre et une nouvelle espèce d’Acanthocéphales de la famille des Quadrigyridae Van Cleave, 1920, Devendrosentis garuai, et ils en discutent la validité. Ces vers, récoltés dans l’intestin d’un poisson d’eau douce, Clupisoma garua, semblent avoir une faible incidence d’infestation puisqu’un seul poisson, sur les nombreux spécimens examinés, était porteur de 2 mâles et de 6 femelles.
