Mature myxospores are crescent-shaped with shell valves that taper gradually toward rounded ends. Each myxospore contained two sub-spherical polar capsules located near the anterior end, closely aligned along the suture line. The mature myxospores measured 6.2 \u00b1 0.6 (5.4\u20136.9) \u03bcm in length and 44.8 \u00b1 4.6 (38.5\u201353.1) \u03bcm in thickness. Polar capsules measured 2.8 \u00b1 0.2 (2.4\u20133.1) \u03bcm in length and 2.3 \u00b1 0.2 (1.9\u20132.6) \u03bcm in width, with polar filaments coiled in 2\u20133 turns. The small subunit ribosomal DNA (SSU rDNA) sequence of Ceratomyxa nemiptera sp. nov. was distinct from all known myxosporeans, showing the highest similarity (93.56%) and the shortest genetic distance (0.0637) with Ceratomyxa arcuata Th\u00e9lohan, 1892. The phylogenetic analysis revealed that C. nemiptera sp. nov. was positioned within a later-diverging lineage, forming a sister-group relationship with a clade containing C. arcuata and Ceratomyxa cretensis Kalatzis, Kokkari &amp; Katharios, 2013.
