Ventral sucker in midbody, oval, larger than oral sucker. Prepharynx absent. Pharynx large, elongate oval. Oesophagus short. Intestinal bifurcation in midforebody. Caeca blind, reaching to midposttesticular region. Testes two, oval, entire or irregular, symmetrical, overlapping posterior edge of ventral sucker, preovarian. Cirrussac large, oval.

Hypocreadium cavum Bray & Cribb 1996
No full textHypocreadium cavum Bray & Cribb, 1996 (Figure 1) Host: Abalistes stellatus (Anonymous), Balistidae, starry triggerfish. Site: Intestine. Locality: Swain Reefs, southern Great Barrier Reef, off Queensland, Australia (21 ° 53 ’S, 152 ° 21 ’E, Feb. 2001). Prevalence: 1 of 1. Voucher specimens: QM G 230517 – 230519, BMNH 2009.2.12.47– 48. Remarks: These specimens agree well with those described by Bray & Cribb (1996) from the same host species from Heron Island (see Table 1). This is the first record of this parasite from this locality. Machida & Kuramochi (1999) reported, but did not illustrate, this species from the balistid the yellow-margined triggerfish, Pseudobalistes flavimarginatus (Rüppell), from Palau in Micronesia. These authors point out that in their specimens the ventral sucker is larger, the eggs are smaller, the ovary is more or less post-testicular and the massive development of gland-cells around the cirrus-sac is absent. In our new specimens, the ventral sucker is distinctly smaller than in the specimens from P. flavimarginatus, no eggs were seen, the ovary is intertesticular, there are numerous gland-cells around the cirrus-sac and the genital pore is always just postbifurcal. Bray & Cribb (2002) also reported this species from the masked triggerfish, Sufflamen fraenatum (Latreille), from Heron Island. They found the measurements to agree with those of Bray & Cribb (1996). There remains some substantial doubt as to the status of the forms from Palau.Published as part of Bray, Rodney A., Cribb, Thomas H. & Justine, Jean-Lou, 2009, New observations on the genus Hypocreadium Ozaki, 1936 (Digenea: Lepocreadiidae) in the Indo-West Pacific region, including the description of one new species, pp. 22-40 in Zootaxa 2110 on page 23, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18786
