Tapeworms of the genus Wenyonia Woodland, 1923 (Caryophyllidea: Caryophyllaeidae), parasites of catfishes in Africa, are revised. This revision is based on material from large-scale sampling, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Kenya, Senegal and the Sudan between 2006 and 2009, and the examination of all of the type-specimens available. The following six species are considered valid and their redescriptions are provided: Wenyonia virilis Woodland, 1923 (type-species; new synonym W. kainjii Ukoli, 1972); W. acuminata Woodland, 1923; W. longicauda Woodland, 1937; W. minuta Woodland, 1923 (new synonym W. mcconnelli Ukoli, 1972); W. synodontis Ukoli, 1972; and W. youdeoweii Ukoli, 1972. A key to the identification of Wenyonia spp. is provided and numerous new hosts and geographical records are reported. A comparative phylogenetic analysis of partial sequences of the 28S rRNA gene of four species divided the monophyletic genus into two lineages, one represented by W. acuminata and W. minuta and another one composed of W. virilis and W. youdeoweii.
对1923年命名的温尼绦虫属(Wenyonia Woodland,隶属于裸头绦虫目:裸头绦虫科)进行了修订,该属是非洲鲶鱼的寄生虫。此次修订基于2006年至2009年间在刚果民主共和国、肯尼亚、塞内加尔和苏丹进行大规模采样获得的材料,以及对所有现有模式标本的检查。确认了以下六个有效物种并给出了重新描述:强壮温尼绦虫(Wenyonia virilis Woodland,1923年;新异名:卡因吉温尼绦虫W. kainjii Ukoli,1972年);尖温尼绦虫(W. acuminata Woodland,1923年);长尾温尼绦虫(W. longicauda Woodland,1937年);微小温尼绦虫(W. minuta Woodland,1923年;新异名:麦康奈尔温尼绦虫W. mcconnelli Ukoli,1972年);Synodontis温尼绦虫(W. synodontis Ukoli,1972年);尤德奥温尼绦虫(W. youdeoweii Ukoli,1972年)。提供了温尼绦虫属物种的鉴定检索表,并报告了许多新宿主和地理记录。对四个物种的28S rRNA基因部分序列进行的比较系统发育分析将这个单系属分为两个谱系,一个以尖温尼绦虫和微小温尼绦虫为代表,另一个由强壮温尼绦虫和尤德奥温尼绦虫组成。
