Abstract
MATA-LOPEZ, Rosario. A new gorgoderid species of the urinary bladder of Rana zweifeli from Michoacán, Mexico. Rev. Mex. Biodiv. [online]. 2006, vol.77, n.2, pp.191-198. ISSN 2007-8706.
Gorgoderina tarascae n. sp. is described from the urinary bladder of Rana zweifeli, from Cutzaróndiro, Michoacán, Mexico. Gorgoderina tarascae differs from the other species of the genus by possessing the following combination of characters: follicular vitelline glands, arranged in two clusters of 4-7 follicles dorsal to the ovary, compact and smooth reproductive organs situated far from each other and from the acetabulum, suckers close to each other, and a slender, spindle shaped body with a flexed position due to the situation of the acetabulum.
Keywords : Gorgoderina tarascae n. sp.; Digenea; Amphibia; Cutzaróndiro.
