	abstract = {Sphaerechinorhynchus macropisthospinus sp. n. (Acanthocephala: Plagiorhynchidae: Sphaerechinorhynchinae) is described from females with ovarian balls obtained from the house gecko, Hemidactlyus frenatus, and from 2 species of frogs. Kaloula pulchra and Microhyla sp. collected in the Doi Suthep-Pui National Park, suburban Chiang Mai, Thailand. One unidentified juvenile female now assigned the same species (this paper) was previously reported from the body cavity of the murrel fish, Ophicephalus striatus, also in Thailand. For a parasite that probably matures in snakes, the above represents an unusual assortment of paratenic host taxa that sheds some light on the possible biology of these unusual acanthocephalans. The new species is distinguished from the 3 other known species of the genus by having the largest number of proboscis hooks per row (9: 3 anterior rooted hooks and 6 spines) with the third (posteriormost) hook being the largest, among other features.},

This material provided the source of the first comprehensive description of the species, whose identity has been in dispute for over 100 yr. Many specimens collected from whales in 18 locations in the Mediterranean and off Faeroe Islands, North and South America, Caribbean, Africa, Great Britain, Japan, and Australia were examined and determined to belong to B. capitatum. Specimens of Bolbosoma physeteris Gubanov, 1952 collected from the same type host and locality listed in the original description were also determined to be B. capitatum, making B. physeteris a junior synonym. The most important determining characters are proboscis armature and variations in the spination of the area between the anterior and posterior cephalic bulbs.},

	abstract = {Sphaerechinorhynchus macropisthospinus sp. n. (Acanthocephala: Plagiorhynchidae: Sphaerechinorhynchinae) is described from females with ovarian balls obtained from the house gecko, Hemidactlyus frenatus, and from 2 species of frogs, Kaloula pulchra and Microhyla sp. collected in the Doi Suthep-Pui National Park, suburban Chiang Mai, Thailand. One unidentified juvenile female now assigned the same species (this paper) was previously reported from the body cavity of the murrel fish, Ophicephalus striatus, also in Thailand. For a parasite that probably matures in snakes, the above represents an unusual assortment of paratenic host taxa that sheds some light on the possible biology of these unusual acanthocephalans. The new species is distinguished from the 3 other known species of the genus by having the largest number of proboscis hooks per row (9:3 anterior rooted hooks and 6 spines) with the third (posteriormost) hook being the largest, among other features.},

This material provided the source of the first comprehensive description of the species, whose identity has been in dispute for over 100 yr. Many specimens collected from whales in 18 locations in the Mediterranean and off Faeroe Islands, North and South America, Caribbean, Africa, Great Britain, Japan, and Australia were examined and determined to belong to B. capitatum. Specimens of Bolbosoma physeteris Gubanov, 1952 collected from the same type host and locality listed in the original description were also determined to be B. capitatum, making B. physeteris a junior synonym. The most important determining characters are proboscis armature and variations in the spination of the area between the anterior and posterior cephalic bulbs.},
