Morphological and molecular description of Pallisentis roparensis n. sp. (Acanthocephala: Quadrigyridae) infecting the freshwater cat fish Wallago attu from Ropar Wetland, Punjab, India
The study describes a new species of Pallisentis Van Cleave, 1928 infecting the freshwater cat fish Wallago attu Bloch and Schneider, 1801 from Ropar wetland, Punjab, India. The morphological characters of Pallisentis roparensis include proboscis with 4 circles of 10 hooks each gradually declining i...
