Myxobolus lentisuturalis sp. n. (Myxozoa: Myxobolidae), a new muscle-infecting species from the Prussian carp, Carassius gibelio from China.
A new highly pathogenic muscle-infecting species of the genus Myxobolus Bütschli, 1882 is described from the Prussian carp, Carassius gibelio (Bloch, 1782) using spore morphology and SSU rDNA sequence data. Phylogenetic analyses elucidated relationship of the newly described Myxobolus lentisuturalis to other Myxobolus species and supported its position of an independent species.
