Fish were infected with <jats:italic>Myxobolus makombensis<\/jats:italic> n. sp. in the gill filament and <jats:italic>M. dibombensis<\/jats:italic> in the fins. Mature myxospores of <jats:italic>M. makombensis<\/jats:italic> n. sp. are pyriform in frontal view and biconvex in lateral view, with a truncated and slightly narrow anterior end. Spore dimensions (mean \u00b1 SD, with range in parentheses) are 17.5 \u00b1 0.22 (16.2-18.9) \u03bcm length, 13.4 \u00b1 0.25 (12-14.9) \u03bcm width, and 7 \u00b1 0.21 (6.7-7.5) \u03bcm thickness, and spores exhibit a conspicuous anterior intercapsular appendix of 4.4 \u00b1 0.18 (3.9-5.5) \u00b5m length. Myxospores have 2 pyriform polar capsules of unequal size; the larger one is 9.8 \u00b1 0. 22 (8.2-10.9) \u03bcm long \u00d7 4.7 \u00b1 0.15 (3.5-5.2) \u00b5m wide, and the smaller one is 8.8 \u00b1 0.22 (7-10) \u00b5m long \u00d7 4.3 \u00b1 0.12 (3.5-5.2) \u00b5m wide. Polar filaments possess 10 to 11 coils in the large polar capsule and 8 to 10 coils in the small polar capsule. Phylogenetic analysis of SSU rDNA sequences showed clustering of <jats:italic>M. makombensis<\/jats:italic> n. sp. close to <jats:italic>M. dibombensis<\/jats:italic> recently reported from the fins of the same host within a clade composed exclusively of parasites infecting cyprinid fishes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3354\/dao03691","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,1]],"date-time":"2022-08-01T13:33:16Z","timestamp":1659360796000},"page":"75-84","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3354\/policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Myxobolus makombensis n. sp. infection in African carp Labeobarbus batesii from the Makomb\u00e8 River, Cameroon: morphological and molecular characterization"],"prefix":"10.3354","volume":"151","author":[{"given":"B","family":"Feudjio-Dongmo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Parasitology and Ecology, Department of Animal Biology and Physiology, Faculty of Sciences, University of Yaound\u00e9 I, PO Box 812, Yaound\u00e9, Cameroon"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"GB","family":"Lekeufack-Folefack","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Parasitology and Ecology, Department of Animal Biology and Physiology, Faculty of Sciences, University of Yaound\u00e9 I, PO Box 812, Yaound\u00e9, Cameroon"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"B","family":"Tene-Fossog","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Research in Infectious Diseases (CRID), PO Box 13501, Yaound\u00e9, Cameroon"},{"name":"Vector Biology Department, Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, Pembroke Place, Liverpool L3 5QA, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"A","family":"Fomena","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Parasitology and Ecology, Department of Animal Biology and Physiology, Faculty of Sciences, University of Yaound\u00e9 I, PO Box 812, Yaound\u00e9, Cameroon"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"CS","family":"Wondji","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Research in Infectious Diseases (CRID), PO Box 13501, Yaound\u00e9, Cameroon"},{"name":"Vector Biology Department, Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, Pembroke Place, Liverpool L3 5QA, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"VM","family":"Yurakhno","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"A.
