Paragendria papuanensis is a species of nematode parasite. [1] It parasitises freshwater fishes from Papua New Guinea, particularly Glossamia gjellerupi and Melanotaenia affinis.
Description
It is characterized by the absence of oesophageal teeth, the presence of conspicuously inflated papillae of the last two subventral pairs, a gubernaculum, spicules 69–75 μm long, eggs measuring 57–66 × 39–45 μm, and a small body (between 3.2 and 5.8 millimetres (0.13 and 0.23 in) long).
