Description de deux espèces de Trichostrongyloïdes, parasites de Zaglossus bruynii en Nouvelle-Guinée. Elles ont en commun beaucoup de caractères qui les opposent aux 3 genres déjà connus chez les Monotrèmes et constituent un nouveau genre Zaglonema. Celui-ci paraît avoir quelques affinités avec le genre Mackerrastrongylus connu chez les Marsupiaux primitifs australiens.
Abstract
The new genus Zaglonema is characterised by the presence of primitive cephalic features, a poorly developed synlophe, the presence of a cervical groove, extra branches of the dorsal ray, short spicules and the absence of a spike on the tail of the female. Many of these features distinguish the new genus from the 3 other genera of Trichostrongyloid Nematodes occuring in Monotremes.
The new genus appears to have some affinities with the genus Mackerrastrongylus which occurs in perameloid marsupials.
