Morphology of obligate ectosymbionts reveals <i>Paralaxus</i> gen. nov., a new circumtropical genus of marine stilbonematine nematodes

2019-08-07

Abstract excerpt

Stilbonematinae are a subfamily of conspicuous marine nematodes, distinguished by a coat of sulphur-oxidizing bacterial ectosymbionts on their cuticle. As most nematodes, the worm hosts have a simple anatomy and few taxonomically informative characters, and this has resulted in numerous taxonomic reassignments and synonymizations. Recent studies using a combination of morphological and molecular traits have helped...
