(Rhadinorhynchidae), and Slen0 aAcanthocephala from Arabian Gulf fishes off Kuwait with descript  c1996///  a201 - 2100 v633 aFive species of acanthocephalans were collected from 14 species of Arabian Gulf fishes off the coast of Kuwait between 1993 and 1995. They are the following. (1) Neoechinorhynchus dimorphospinus sp. n. (Neoechinorhynchidae) from Allanetta forskali (Ruppell, 1828), Dorosoma nasus (Bloch, 1795), and Liza macrotepis (Smith, 1849). It is distinguished from the only other species of Neoechinorhynchus Stiles and Hassall, 1905, from fish with unequal proboscis hooks in the anterior circle, Neoechinorhynchus doryphorus Van Cleave and Bangham, 1949, by having smaller terminal proboscis hooks and eggs. (2) Tegorhynchus holospinus sp. n. (Illiosentidae) from Leiognathus fasciatus (Lacépède, 1798), Leiognathus bindus (Cuvier and Valenciennes, 1835), and Pseudorhombus arsius (Hamilton-Buchanan, 1827). It is the only species of the genus with cuticular spines covering almost the whole trunk. (3) Micracanthorhynchina kuwaitensis sp. n. (Rhadinorhynchidae) from Hemiramphus marginatus Forskal, 1775. It has the largest number of proboscis hooks per row (13-15) compared to all other species of the genus. A key separating the latter species from the other 6 valid species of the genus is included. (4) Slendrorhynchus breviclaviproboscis gen. n., sp. n. (Diplosentidae, Allorhadinorhynchinae), from Lagocephalus lunaris (Bloch and Schneider, 1801) and Leiognathus bindus (Cuvier and Valenciennes, 1835). It has trunk spines that cover almost the entire body and 4 cement glands. The other 2 monotypic genera of the subfamily, Allorhadinorhunchus Yamaguti, 1959, with 2 cement glands and Golavanorhynchus Noronha, Fabio, and Pinto, 1978, with 6 cement glands, have spines in the anterior part of the trunk only. The diagnosis of the subfamily AHorhadinorhynchmae is emended. (5) Juveniles of Serrasentis sagittifer (Rhadinorhynchidae) were recovered from the body cavity of 6 fish species; all are new host records.10aArabian Gulf fishes10aKuwait10aMarine Acanthocephala10aNew taxa1 aAmin, O.M.1 aSey, O.  uhttp://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-3042869240&partnerID=40&md5=f36b8e41e48fc981a1b3dc9202cf1b9001777nas a2200277   4500008004100000020002000041245020900061210006900270260001200339300001400351490000700365520077700372653001901149653001701168653001201185653001601197653001901213653002401232653001901256653004001275100001501315700001901330700001801349700001601367856011601383       1996                        eng d  a1049233X (ISSN)00aImmature Polyacanthorhynchus rhopalorhynchus (Acanthocephala: Polyacanthorhynchidae) in Venton, Hoplias malabaricus (Pisces) from Moca Vie River, Bolivia, with notes on its apical organ and histopathology0 aImmature Polyacanthorhynchus rhopalorhynchus Acanthocephala Poly  c1996///  a115 - 1190 v633 aCystacanths of Polyacanthorhynchus rhopalorhynchus (Diesing, 1851) Travassos, 1920 were discovered in the viscera of venton, Hoplias malabaricus (Bloch, 1794) collected from the Moca Vie River at Las Palquitas, Bolivia.

Cystacanths of P. rhopalorhynchus were not deeply embedded in liver tissue. A collagenous connective tissue capsule surrounded and attached the cystacanths to the liver surface. Necrosis of hepatocytes and subsequent inflammatory response were observed near encapsulated acanthocephalans.
