These reports were based on only light infections of their host fishes. Of the few flathead grey mullets, <jats:italic>Mugil cephalus<\/jats:italic> (Mugilidae), that we examined in the Arabian Gulf, one fish was infected with 1,450 worms. One milkfish, <jats:italic>Chanos chanos<\/jats:italic> (Chanidae), from the same location in the Arabian Gulf, was also heavily infected with specimens of <jats:italic>C. magnum.<\/jats:italic> The descriptions of this unique large worm are revised and for the first time, we provide SEM images, new systematic observations, metal analysis of hooks showing extremely high levels of sulfur, and histopathology in the mullet intestinal tissue. Adjustments and corrections of previous descriptive accounts are made. The histopathology studies show extensive damage to the host intestinal tissue including epithelial necrosis, hemorrhaging and worm encapsulation. There is an extensive amount of host connective tissue surrounding the worm. Results of x-ray analysis displayed high levels of sulfur in proboscis hooks, especially at the tips and edges of these attachment structures.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1051\/parasite\/2018006","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,2,9]],"date-time":"2018-02-09T08:50:59Z","timestamp":1518166259000},"page":"5","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":27,"title":["<i>Cavisoma magnum<\/i> (Cavisomidae), a unique Pacific acanthocephalan redescribed from an unusual host, <i>Mugil cephalus<\/i> (Mugilidae), in the Arabian Gulf, with notes on histopathology and metal analysis"],"prefix":"10.1051","volume":"25","author":[{"given":"Omar M.","family":"Amin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Richard A.","family":"Heckmann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Majid A.","family":"Bannai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"250","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,2,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"R1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"14","DOI":"10.14411\/fp.2016.014","volume":"63","author":"Amin","year":"2016","journal-title":"Folia Parasitologica"},{"issue":"39","key":"R2","first-page":"43","volume":"62","author":"Arthur","year":"1995","journal-title":"Journal of the Helminthological Society of Washington"},{"key":"R3","unstructured":"Bancroft JD, \nGamble M. \n2001. \nTheory and practice of histological techniques, 5th ed. \nChurchill Livingston, \nEdenborough, U.K., 1\u2013800."},{"key":"R4","unstructured":"Bester C. 2004.
