A New Monogenean ectoparasites Yogendrotrema balrampurai n.sp. from Fresh Water Cat Fish Sciaena coiter Ham. of District Balrampur, Uttarpradesh, India

The fresh water fish Sciaena coiter Ham. was collected from local fish market of district Balrampur, Uttar Pradesh, India. Five specimens of fresh water fish Sciaena coiter Ham. were examined, of which only one specimen was found infected with single specimen of said species. The site of infection being the gill filaments of the host. Kumar and Agarwal, 1993 erected the genus Yogendrotrema from Varanasi with Yogendrotrema rajghatai as type species. The present form differs from the known species Yogendrotrema rajghatai in having septate oral sucker, extension of Vitellaria in haptor region also. On subsequent study, the present form appear to be a new species of the genus Yogendrotrema, Kumar and Agarwal, 1993 and is regarded as a new species and named Yogendrotrema balrampurai n. sp. since it is recorded from district Balrampur.
