1) Description de la femelle de Gendria leberrei, Bain et Philippon, 1969, et compléments morphologiques à l’étude du mâle.
2) Description de Camallanus dimitrovi n. sp., parasite de divers Amphibiens du Togo, caractérisé par son nombre élevé de baguettes chitinoïdes.
Les 13 espèces connues de Camallanus d’Amphibiens sont caractérisées par 4 éléments que l’on rencontre plus fréquemment que chez les Camallanus de Poissons (groupement des 3 premières paires de papilles postcloacales, forme du spicule droit, position preéquatoriale de la vulve, viviparité). Bien qu’il nous semble prématuré de créer un nouveau sous-genre pour les Camallanus d’Amphibiens, nous constatons qu’ils forment un groupe à part, plus évolué que celui des Poissons.
Abstract
1) Description of the female of Gendria leberrei Bain and Philippon, 1969, and complements to the morphological study of the male.
2) Description of Camallanus dimitrovi n. sp., a parasite of several Amphibians from Togo, characterized by large number of chitinous rods.
The 13 known species of Camallanus of Amphibians have four main morphological characteristics which are present more frequently than in Camallanus of fishes (position of the three first postcloacal papillae which are close to each other, shape of the right spicule, preequatorial position of the vulva, viviparity). More information is needed before a new sub-genus is created for the Camallanus of Amphibians but they already appear to form a separate group, more evolved than the Camallanus of fishes.
