| Description | This study supplements the original description of Synodontella zambezensis Douëllou et Chishawa, 1995 and represents a new geographical record for this parasite from Synodontis zambezensis from South Africa. The revision is based on morphometric characteristics and molecular data. Charac- terisation of LSU, partial SSU and ITS1 rDNA represents a first record of DNA sequencing for Synodontella species. |
