Abstract
Unicapsula marquesi n. sp. (Myxosporea) is described from gill filaments of Polydactylus quadrifilis (Pisces, Polynemidae) obtained from coats of Senegal. The cysts were elongated and their length was 1 to 3 mm. The spores were pyramidal and composed of three valves. Only one of theses valves contained a developed polar capsule measuring 3.01 +/- 0.09 microns in diameter. Length of spore was 6.13 +/- 0.21 microns and the width was 7.18 +/- 0.17. No filament like appendage at the extremity of shell valves. Data on ultrastructure of spores are presented.Entities:
