Sanguinicola platyrhynchi n. sp. (Digenea: Sanguinicolidae) parasite of visceral cavity of Hemisorubim platyrhynchos (Valenciennes, 1840) (Pisces: Pimelodidae) from the floodplain of the upper Paraná River, Brazil.
A new species is of the genus Sanguinicola Plehn, 1905 described, Sanguinicola platyrhynchi n. sp., digenetic parasite of visceral cavity of Hemisorubim platyrhynchos (Valenciennes, 1840) from the floodplain of the upper Paraná River, Brazil. The species has been thus included because of the presence of separate dorsal genital pores, while differing from other species of the same genus mainly in digestive apparatus features, genital pore position, and infection site. Emendation of generic diagnosis is included.
