Mesonauta festivus is a cichlid popularly known as flag cichlid, widely distributed throughout South America. The diversity of parasites in fish from the Amazon region is still underestimated, due to the high fishes diversity. The Myxozoa class has a universal distribution, with some specimens being pathogenic to some fish. The aim of this work was to describe a new species of Hoferellus in M. festivus. The fish were collected in the lake region, municipality of Tartarugalzinho, in the state of Amap\u00e1, Brazil. The new species was found parasitizing the urinary bladder of M. festivus. Spores were 11.5 \u00b11.1 (10.4-12.6) \u00b5m long and 10.9 \u00b11 (9.9-11.9) \u00b5m wide, and polar capsules were equally sized, measuring 4.9 \u00b10.5 (4.4-5.4) \u00b5m long and 3.4 \u00b10.9 (2.5-4.3) \u00b5m wide, with a pyriform shape, convergent with the apical region of the spore. The polar filament was wound with 5 to 6 turns. Morphological, morphometric, molecular and phylogenetic analysis proved that it is a new species of Hoferellus in the Amazon region.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1590\/s1984-29612024059","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,7]],"date-time":"2024-10-07T12:56:24Z","timestamp":1728305784000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["A new myxozoan parasitizing Mesonauta festivus (Cichliformes: Cichlidae) from the lake region in the municipality of Tartarugalzinho, Eastern Amazon, Brazil"],"prefix":"10.1590","volume":"33","author":[{"given":"Abthyllane Amaral de","family":"Carvalho","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Federal do Par\u00e1,  Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Roger Leomar da Silva","family":"Ferreira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Federal do Par\u00e1,  Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lilia Suzane de Oliveira","family":"Nascimento","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade do Estado do Amap\u00e1,  Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Luize Cristine Pantoja dos","family":"Reis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Federal do Amap\u00e1,  Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kalieli Martins","family":"Silva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade do Estado do Amap\u00e1,  Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Luana Silva","family":"Bittencourt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade do Estado do Amap\u00e1,  Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9559-8521","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Marcela Nunes","family":"Videira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade do Estado do Amap\u00e1,  Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Elane Guerreiro","family":"Giese","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universidade Federal Rural da Amaz\u00f4nia,  Brasil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"530","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024]]},"reference":[{"issue":"2-4","key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"110","DOI":"10.1016\/j.vetpar.2011.10.008","article-title":"Phylogenetic and host-parasite relationship analysis of Henneguya multiplasmodialis n. sp. infecting Pseudoplatystoma spp. in Brazilian Pantanal wetland","volume":"185","author":"Adriano EA","year":"2012","journal-title":"Vet Parasitol"},{"key":"ref2","first-page":"287","article-title":"Myxosporidia of the fishes from the Amur river basin.
