A new species of Myxosporea Kudoa miniauriculata is described from the somatic muscle of bocaccio (Sebastes paucispinis), an eastern Pacific Ocean rockfish species caught off the coast of California. Spores are stellate in apical view and suboval in side view. The tip of each valve is uplifted. Each valve has a small (0.25-0.41 micron) projection at its apical end. Mean spore dimensions were width 7.94 microns, length 5.41 microns, and polar capsule length 2.15 microns. A previous identification of K. clupeidae in bocaccio and the presence of this species on the west coast of North America is discounted.
从加利福尼亚海岸捕获的东太平洋岩鱼物种博氏岩鱼（Sebastes paucispinis）的体肌中描述了一种新的粘孢子虫——小耳库道虫（Kudoa miniauriculata）。孢子在顶面观呈星状，侧面观呈近椭圆形。每个瓣膜的尖端向上隆起。每个瓣膜在其顶端有一个小的（0.25 - 0.41微米）突起。孢子的平均尺寸为宽度7.94微米、长度5.41微米，极囊长度2.15微米。先前在博氏岩鱼中鉴定出的鲱库道虫（K. clupeidae）以及该物种在北美西海岸的存在被否定。
