New host records, redescriptions and new species of Labiostrongylinea (Nematoda: Chabertiidae) from macropodid marsupials, with a revised host-parasite checklist
2006
SummaryNew host records: from Macropus rufogriseus for Labiosimplex clelandi, M. robustus for Ls. aridus, Thylogale stigmatica for Ls. thetidis, and M. parma for Ls. bancrofti are reported. On re-examination of all material, Labiosimplex quasibancrofti was found to be morphologically indistinguishable from Ls. australis and is therefore a synonym of Ls. australis. A new species of Labiomultiplex, described from a single female from M. parma, is differentiated by the shape of the lateral lips and Lm. kimberleyensis is redescribed from additional material collected from the type-host, Onychogalea fraenata, from Queensland. Two new species of Labiosimplex are described from macropodid marsupials from central Australia. Labiosimplex centralis sp. nov. from the stomach of Petrogale lateralis differs from the most similar of its congenors, Ls. thomasae (both lacking a gubernaculum), in having shorter spicules, a shorter dorsal lobe of the bursa, and in the form of the dorsal ray. Labiosimplex territoriensis sp....
