Myxobolus microcystus sp. n. is described from the gills of the largemouth bass, Micropterus salmoides. Mean spore dimensions (in micrometers) are as follows: spore length 12.5; spore width 7.5; spore thickness 5.5; polar capsule length 6.5; polar capsule width 2.5; extended length of polar filaments 21 to 37; polar filaments with 6 to 7 coils. In histological sections, hyperplasia of infected filaments, atrophy of lamellae, partial occlusion of the efferent artery, and reduction in the number of peripheral goblet cells were observed.
