摘要
Cucullanus tunisiensis sp. nov., (Nematoda: Cucullanidae), collected from the intestine of the white grouper Epinephelus aeneus from waters off the coast of Tunisia is described based on light and scanning electron microscopic observations. The new species is characterized by the presence of lateral alae, ventral sucker, long unequal spicules (left spicule 2474-2789 pm long, right spicule 2357-2518 pm long). This is the sixth nominal species of the genus Cucullanus Muller, 1777 and the first representative of this genus infecting fishes of Serranidae family reported from Tunisian waters.
