A new nematode species, Philometroides acanthopagri sp. nov. (Philometridae), is described from gravid and subgravid specimens found in the musculature near pectoral fins and in nasal cavity of the yellowfin seabream Acanthopagrus latus (Houttuyn) (Sparidae, Perciformes) from marine waters off the coast of southern Iraq. Based on light and scanning electron microscopical examination, the new species differs from its congeners in a combination of morphological and biometrical features. It is the first species of Philometroides reported from a sparid fish and the first representative of this genus recorded from fishes in the Arabian Gulf. A key to Philometroides species parasitizing marine and brackish-water fishes is provided.
描述了一种新的线虫物种，黄鳍鲷嗜子宫线虫新种（Philometroides acanthopagri sp. nov.）（嗜子宫科），该物种采自伊拉克南部沿海海水中的黄鳍鲷（Acanthopagrus latus (Houttuyn)）（鲷科，鲈形目）胸鳍附近肌肉组织和鼻腔内的孕卵和近孕卵标本。基于光学显微镜和扫描电子显微镜检查，该新物种在形态和生物测量特征组合上与其同属物种不同。它是首次报道自鲷科鱼类的嗜子宫线虫物种，也是首次记录自阿拉伯湾鱼类的该属代表物种。提供了寄生在海洋和咸淡水鱼类上的嗜子宫线虫物种检索表。
