“…Parasites of the Gymnotidae ( U. uncinus Zago et al . 2020, U. carapus Mizelle, Kritsky & Crane, 1968, and U. gymnotus Mizelle, Kritsky & Crane, 1968) also formed a distinct clade, closer to U. nataliapasternakae Santos Neto & Domingues, 2023, the only representative of Hypopomidae for this marker.…”

“…The current study presents a description of a new species of Urocleidoides Mizelle & Price (1964), rising to 53 the number of valid species parasitizing various types of hosts recorded in other localities on the Neotropical continent (Zago et al . 2020; Santos Neto and Domingues, 2023). In molecular aspects, U. luquei n. sp.…”

During the study of ectoparasites (Platyhelminthes) of fish in the floodplain of the Upper Paraná River - Brazil, a new species of Urocleidoides, present in the gill filaments of Hemiodus orthonops (Hemiodontidae), is described using morphological description and molecular data from the mitochondrial region of cytochrome c oxidase, subunit 1 (COI) and the partial region of the 28S rDNA gene. Urocleidoides luquei n. sp. differs from all its congeners by the presence of a filament that joins the accessory piece to the base of the male copulatory organ and resembles U. paradoxus and U. surianoae. Phylogenetic analyses using molecular data revealed that U. luquei n. sp. forms a paraphyletic group concerning the other Urocleidoides species. In this way, as well as contributing to the description of a new species, we seek to encourage and contribute to the increase in research using integrative taxonomy, thus making it possible to elucidate some unresolved questions about the genus Urocleidoides.
