Monanema australis Spratt 2008
No full textMonanema australis Spratt, 2008 Monanema australis Spratt, 2008 pp. 1–6, Figs. 1–9, from Melomys cervinipes and Uromys caudimaculatus Severin Ck., Danbulla State Forest, north Queensland. Type host. Melomys cervinipes (Eutheria: Muridae). Other hosts. Melomys burtoni (Ramsay), Uromys caudimaculatus (Eutheria: Muridae). Site in host. Lung parenchyma, hepatic blood vessels and lymphatics. Distribution and hosts. Monanema australis is known from the original description from the lung parenchyma of the fawn-footed melomys and from hepatic blood vessels and lymphatics of the giant white-tailed rat on the Atherton Tablelands, north Queensland. It appears also to be known from the note and illustration by Mackerras (1962) of unidentified, sheathed microfilariae from the blood of Melomys cervinipes, M. burtoni (as M. lutillus litoralis (Thomas, 1913)) and U. caudimaculatus in the Inisfail region of north Queensland. Remarks. This is the only species of Monanema described from Australian hosts, the other four species of the genus occurring in sciurids in North America and murids in the Ethiopian region. Ixodid ticks act as intermediate hosts and vectors of the three species for which life cycles are known (Ko 1972; Bianco & Muller 1977, Bianco et al. 1983, Petit et al. 1988), with microfilariae occurring in the small lymphatic vessels of the skin. Spratt (2008) also noted a much larger, sheathed microfilaria from the blood of Mesembriomys gouldii (Gray) from Mareeba airport on the Atherton Tablelands, possibly representing an undescribed species of Monanema in this murid host.Published as part of Spratt, David M., 2011, New records of filarioid nematodes (Nematoda: Filarioidea) parasitic in Australasian monotremes, marsupials and murids, with descriptions of nine new species 2860, pp. 1-61 in Zootaxa 2860 (1) on page 47, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.2860.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/528650
