	abstract = {<p>Neoechinorhynchus (Neoechinorhynchus) dorsovaginatus n. sp. (Acanthocephala: Neoechinorhynchidae) is described from the dusky kob, Argyrosomus japonicus (Temminck \& Schlegel) from the southern coast of South Africa in the Breede River Estuary. Like four other species of Neoechinorhynchus Stiles \& Hassall, 1905, N. (N.) africanus Troncy, 1969, N. (N.) johnii Yamaguti, 1939, N. topseyi Podder, 1937 and N. (N.) tylosuri Yamaguti, 1939, the new species has a very long, slender body, cylindrical testes and cement-gland, anterior proboscis hooks much longer than the middle or posterior hooks, and a long neck. The new species is the only species of Neoechinorynchus having an antero-dorsal hump just posterior to the neck and a specialised vaginal sphincter and a gonopore on the dorsal side. It is closest to N. (N.) johnii, but is distinguished from it by: the size of the trunk, proboscis, anterior proboscis hooks, neck, and the posterior testis in relation to the cement-gland; the shape of cerebral ganglion and proboscis hook root; and the number of giant nuclei in the cement-gland.</p>},

	abstract = {<p>Acanthocephaloides irregularis n. sp. (Arhythmacanthidae) is described from four species of marine fishes in the Gulf of Odessa and Sukhyi Lyman, Ukrainan Black Sea waters, making it the tenth species of the genus. The hosts are the combtooth blenny Parablennius zvonimiri (Kolombatovic) (Blenniidae), the mushroom goby Ponticola eurycephalus (Kessler) (Gobiidae), the tubenose goby Proterorhinus marmoratus (Pallas) (Gobiidae) and the black-striped pipefish Syngnathus abaster Risso (Syngnathidae). The new species is most similar to its closest relative, Acanthocephaloides propinquus (Dujardin, 1845), in proboscis shape and armature (12 longitudinal rows of 5 hooks) and the shape of the trunk, reproductive system and lemnisci, but differs in having randomly distributed trunk spines. These trunk spines are organised in circular rings of individual spines separated by aspinose zones. The new species is also unique in having an anterior trunk collar, a very large triangular cephalic ganglion, nucleated pouches at the posterior end of the proboscis receptacle, and hooks and spines with roots bearing anterior manubria. Valid and invalid species of Acanthocephaloides Meyer, 1932 are listed and a key to all ten species is included.</p>
