Abstract

Three new species of Gyrodactylus von Nordmann, 1832 are described from Poeciliopsis hnilickai and Tlaloc labialis (syn. Profundulus candalarius and Profundulus labialis) from the state of Chiapas, Mexico. Gyrodactylus chiapaneco n. sp. is described from T. labialis. Gyrodactylus guatopotei n. sp. was found to infect P. hnilickai. Gyrodactylus tlaloci n. sp. is described from T. labialis. The new species were characterised morphologically (haptoral hooks) and molecularly (sequences of the Internal Transcribed Spacer region (ITS1-5.8S-ITS2) of rDNA).
