title: [A new monogenean parasite (Bouixella n. g.) in the Mormyridae (teleosts) of Benin].
abstract: Study of the Monogenean gill parasites occuring in the Mormyrid fish from Benin (Africa). Description of a new genus, Bouixella. It differs from the other Ancyrocephalidae by the number (4) of cross bars between the haptoral hamuli. This new genus seems to bee specific of the mormyridae among which a new example of simultaneous gill parasitism by congeneric species is reported.
