The results suggest that the ITS2 rDNA region alone is suitable for resolving operational taxonomic units (OTUs) at the species level within the Cryptogonimidae based on what was observed in this and other cryptog onimid systems.

Two species of Neometadena Hafeezullah & Siddiqi, 1970 (Digenea: Cryptogonimidae) from Moreton Bay, Australia, including the description of Neometadena paucispina n. sp. from Australian Lutjanidae

A survey of the trematode fauna of lutjanid fishes off the east coast of Queensland (QLD), Australia revealed the presence of two species of Neometadena paucispina, one of which is distinguished from N. ovata in having fewer oral spines and the wide distribution of other cryptogonomid species in the same hosts elsewhere in the Indo-West Pacific is discussed.

Cryptic species of Euryakaina n. g. (Digenea: Cryptogonimidae) from sympatric lutjanids in the Indo-West Pacific

Morphometric analysis of these taxa alone suggests they should be reduced to synonymy, but DNA sequence analyses and ecological niche partitioning provide evidence that they form a cryptic species complex in sympatric lutjanids in the Indo-West Pacific.

Phylogenetic Position of Pseudosellacotyla lutzi (Freitas, 1941) (Digenea: Cryptogonimidae), A Parasite of Hoplias malabaricus (Bloch) in South America, through 28S rDNA Sequences, and New Observations of the Ultrastructure of Their Tegument

The resulting tree unequivocally shows that the freshwater fish digenean Pseudosellacotyla lutzi, along with acanthostomines, belong to the Cryptogonimidae, corroborating recent findings based on the morphology of the cercariae, and in the characteristics of the life cycle.

Varialvus gen. nov. (Digenea, Cryptogonimidae), from species of Lutjanidae (Perciformes) off the Great Barrier Reef, New Caledonia and the Maldives

Bayesian inference analysis of partial large subunit (LSU) rDNA sequence data for these species revealed that they formed a monophyletic clade, despite V. charadrus sp.

Isorchis cannoni n. sp. (Digenea: Atractotrematidae) from Great Barrier Reef rabbitfishes and the molecular elucidation of its life cycle

Using molecular data, it is demonstrated that ‘Cercariae queenslandae II’ of Cannon (1978) from the gastropod Clypeomorus batillariaeformis Habe & Kosuge (Cerithiidae) is the larval form of this new species of Isorchis cannoni n.

Taxonomy, host-specificity and biogeography of Symmetrovesicula Yamaguti, 1938 (Digenea: Fellodistomidae) from chaetodontids (Teleostei: Perciformes) in the tropical Indo-west Pacific region

The conservative approach is taken of recognising two species of Symmetrovesicula within Australian waters, S. chaetodontis Yamaguti, 1938 from off Ningaloo Reef, Western Australia and S. gracilis n.

Siphoderina hustoni n. sp. (Platyhelminthes: Trematoda: Cryptogonimidae) from the Maori snapper Lutjanus rivulatus (Cuvier) on the Great Barrier Reef

A new cryptogonimid trematode, Siphoderina hustonin, is reported, collected off Lizard Island, Queensland, Australia, from the Maori snapper Lutjanus rivulatus (Cuvier), the first cryptog onimid known from L. rIVulatus and the first metazoan parasite reported from that fish in Australian waters.

Gynichthys diakidnus n. g., n. sp. (Digenea: Cryptogonimidae) from the grunt Plectorhinchus gibbosus (Lacépède, 1802) (Perciformes: Haemulidae) off the Great Barrier Reef, Australia

Bayesian inference analysis of LSU rDNA data revealed that G. diakidnus n.

Three new species of Cryptogonimidae belonging to two new genera are described from the large piscivorous reef fish Lutjanus bohar recovered from Heron and Lizard Islands off the Great Barrier Reef and Rasdhoo Atoll, Maldives, to explore the geographic distribution and integrity of the putative species recovered from these widespread localities.

Two new cryptogonimid genera Beluesca n. gen. and Chelediadema n. gen. (Digenea: Cryptogonimidae) from tropical Indo-West Pacific Haemulidae (Perciformes)

Despite their superficial morphological and host preference similarities, species of Beluesca and Chelediadema were genetically distant from each other, and interspecific and intergeneric variation among the species described here is similar to that reported for other cryptogonimids.

Inference of phylogeny and taxonomy within the Didymozoidae (Digenea) from the second internal transcribed spacer (ITS2) of ribosomal DNA

DNA sequences of the second internal transcribed spacer of ribosomal DNA (rDNA) were determined for 11 species from four genera of Didymozoinae and found the gonochoristic species, I. pearsoni and I. suttiei, to be genetically similar to the hermaphroditic species in the genus Indodidymozoon and found no evidence to indicate that they belong in a separate genus.

Although the DNA barcoding methodology was effective, its overall success was limited due to the newly discovered taxonomic limitations of the reference sequence database, highlighting the importance of synergy between molecular geneticists and taxonomists in understanding and documenting the authors' world's biodiversity.
