Distribution of Placobdella hollensis (Whitman, 1892) (Hirudinida: Glossiphoniidae)

Comparative Parasitology, 2017
ABSTRACT: Confusion regarding the identification of Placobdella hollensis (Whitman, 1892) (Hirudinida: Glossiphoniidae) has led to an unclear understanding of the distribution of the species. Two specimens of P. hollensis were collected from Merchants Millpond State Park, Gates County, North Carolina, U.S.A., representing a new geographic distribution ...

Redescription ofPlacobdella papilliferaVerrill, 1872 (Hirudinida: Glossiphoniidae)

Bulletin of the Peabody Museum of Natural History, 2013
ABSTRACT The identification and taxonomy of Placobdella papillifera (Verrill, 1872) Moore, 1952 have been blurred by its varieties and have been compounded by the apparent lack of type material. Leeches collected from May 2008 through August 2012 from West River, New Haven, New Haven County, Connecticut, the type locality of Clepsine papillifera ...

New Antarctic deep-sea weird leech (Hirudinida: Piscicolidae): morphological features and phylogenetic relationships

Systematic Parasitology, 2018
A new fish leech Ambulobdella shandikovi n. g., n. sp. (Hirudinida: Piscicolidae), a parasite of Whitson's grenadier Macrourus whitsoni (Regan) (Macrouridae: Gadiformes) collected in the Ross Sea at depths from 1,221 to 1,433 m, is described and compared with related taxa based on morphological and molecular characters. Ambulobdella shandikovi n.

Barbronia weberi (Clitellata, Hirudinida, Salifidae) has ovary cords of the Erpobdella type

Journal of Morphology, 2013
ABSTRACTThe organization of the ovaries in representative of the Salifidae (Hirudinida, Erpobdelliformes) was studied at the ultrastructural level for the first time. Like in other leeches, the ovaries of Barbronia weberi are composed of an outer envelope (i.e., an ovisac made up of two coelomic epithelia, muscle cells, and connective tissue) and ...

Body form of leeches (Hirudinida: Piscicolidae) parasitizing fishes.

Wiadomosci parazytologiczne, 2010
The body form of leeches, which becomes a modeling object, is a valid ectosomatic feature. It describes borders, in which, we can find internal organs of an individual. The range of realization of the body form, proposed for different groups of leeches, characterize their life spaces.

Redescription and Molecular Characterization of Placobdella pediculata Hemingway, 1908 (Hirudinida: Glossiphoniidae)

Bulletin of the Peabody Museum of Natural History, 2019
Placobdella pediculataHemingway, 1908 was originally described from individuals that were attached to Aplodinotus grunniens (freshwater drum) in Lake Pepin, Minnesota, USA. Apparently, no type material was deposited. The acquisition of contemporary specimens from its type host in the type locality facilitated redescription of P. pediculata. Placobdella

On the classification, evolution and biogeography of terrestrial haemadipsoid leeches (Hirudinida: Arhynchobdellida: Hirudiniformes)

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2008
A scourge of tropical and subtropical jungles, bloodfeeding terrestrial leeches of Haemadipsidae have long confused systematists and defied sensible biogeographic interpretation. The family Haemadipsidae usually includes problematic taxa that neither fit the typical IndoPacific distribution of the group, nor properly match diagnostic characters used to

Gametogenesis in the leech Asiaticobdella buntonensis (Meyer, 1951) (Hirudinidae)

African Zoology, 2017
The gametogenic cycle of the leech, Asiaticobdella buntonensisfrom two localities was investigated and found to be simultaneously hermaphroditic. Spermatogenesis reached a state of maturation before oogenesis in a cycle of summer reproductive maturation and winter quiescence comparable to related Hirudinidae.

Leeches (Hirudinida: Piscicolidae)--parasites of Antarctic fish from Channichthyidae family.

Wiadomosci parazytologiczne, 2009
There has hitherto been very few research projects focusing on ectoparasites of Antarctic fishes. The presently reported study provides data on the prevalence and the intensity of leeches (Hirudinida: Piscicolidae) infecting fishes. The materials were collected in December-February 1986/87 off the Elephant Island, South Georgia, Joinville Island, and ...
