Opisthorchis lomeensis n. sp. (Trematoda, Opisthorchiidae) est décrit de la vésicule biliaire d’Aubria subsigillata (Anura, Ranidae). Il se caractérise principalement par son tégument non spinulé, son rapport ventousaire inférieur à 1, un pré-pharynx court, un ovaire nettement séparé des testicules et des follicules vitellogènes débutant un peu en arrière de l’acetabulum pour se terminer au niveau du bord antérieur de l’ovaire. O. lomeensis est le premier Opisthorchiidae adulte connu d’Amphibien.
Abstract
Opisthorchis lomeensis n. sp. (Trematoda, Opisthorchiidae) is described from the gall bladder of Aubria subsigillata (Anura, Ranidae). It is mainly characterized by the smooth tegument, the sucker ratio less than one, the short prepharynx, the ovary clearly separated from the testis, and the vitelline follicles extending from a level situated a little behind the acetabulum to the level of the anterior edge of the ovary. O. lomeensis is the first adult Opisthorchiidae to be described from an Amphibian.
