The gallbladder of 1 (25%) was infected with apparently novel myxozoans. Qualitative and quantitative morphological data were from preserved formalin-fixed myxospores. Molecular data include 2,059 bp (for a Myxidium sp.) and 951 bp (for an unobserved Myxozoa sp.) sequences of the partial small subunit (SSU) ribosomal RNA gene. Phylogenetic analysis placed the Myxidium sp. among a clade of myxozoans that infect fish from the southern portion of North America. These represent the first myxozoans reported from the gallbladder of madtoms.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1645\/23-105","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,5]],"date-time":"2024-12-05T04:58:14Z","timestamp":1733374694000},"page":"642-648","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Myxozoans (Cnidaria: Myxosporea: Myxidiidae) Identified from the Gallbladder of Freckled Madtom, Noturus nocturnus (Siluriformes: Ictaluridae), from the Ouachita River Drainage of Southern Arkansas"],"prefix":"10.1645","volume":"110","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9205-6818","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Chris T.","family":"McAllister","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Natural Sciences, Northeast Texas Community College, 2886 FM 1735, Chapel Hill Road, Mt.
