چکیده

Acolpenceron australe sp. n. (Dactylogyridae, Dactylogyrinae) is described from ureters and renal tubules of Percichthys trucha (Cuvier et Valenciennes) (Perciformes, Percichthyidae) from Andean Patagonian lakes. The new species has a haptor with 14 hooks, with shanks comprised of two subunits. It has overlapped intercaecal gonads, male copulatory organ as a sclerotized tube with one counterclockwise coil and a J-shaped accessory piece. It differs from the other species of Acolpenteron by having a non-forked accessory piece. This is the first monogenean species described from a percichthyid host in South America.

Phylogeography and phenotypic diversification in the Patagonian fish Percichthys trucha: the roles of Quaternary glacial cycles and natural selection

Current patterns of genetic and morphological diversity are the product of historical climatic and geomorphological events, and of contemporary selection processes acting upon this diversity. Here we examine the phylogeographic and phenotypic patterns of diversity within Percichthys trucha, a widely distributed Patagonian fish species complex that inhabits Andean and steppe freshwater environme...
