Procamallanus (Spirocamallanus) pseudospiralis Moravec et Scholz, 2017 Hosts: Synodontis decorus, Synodontis greshoffi (Siluriformes: Mochokidae) and Mesoborus crocodilus Pellegrin (Characiformes: Distichodontidae). Site of infection: Intestine. Localities: Sangha River adjacent to Sangha Lodge, 02°59'06''N; 16°13'59''E, DSPA (S. decorus, S. greshoffi, collected 11–15 September 2012) and Mongambe, forest stream, 02°55'26''N; 16°23'24''E (M. crocodilus, collected 21 September 2012), both localities DSPA, Central African Republic, Congo basin. Prevalence and intensity: S. decorus: 1 fish infected/3 fish examined; 1 nematode. S. greshoffi: 4/9; 1–3. M. crocodilus: 1/1; 1. Deposition of voucher specimens: IPCAS N-1124. Remarks. The morphology of present specimens corresponds to that of Procamallanus (S.) pseudospiralis Moravec et Scholz, 2017, a species recently described from three Synodontis spp. in the Sudan and occurring also in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (Moravec and Scholz 2017). Since only one female was collected from M. crocodilus, occurrence of P. (S.) pseudospiralis in this host should be confirmed by subsequent studies.
