| Abstract |
A description is provided for Loma trichiuri, which infects fish of the family Trichiuridae in the Indian and western Pacific Oceans; infections developing in the host cytoplasm (but not in nerve tissues), presumably without diplokarya, and resulting in tumours (also known as 'xenomas') in which the host nucleus is presumed to be centrally located. Some information on its dispersal and transmission, habitats and conservation status is given, along with details of its geographical distribution (Asia (India (Andhra Pradesh))). |
