Cichlidogyrus halinus Paperna, 1969 View in CoL (part): 860, 861, fig. 71 left drawing (individuals from Tilapia guineensis in the original description) (cf. Pariselle & Euzet 1996: 117, 118, fig. 10).

TYPE MATERIAL. — C. digitatus : Holotype: MNHN Tj116. Paratype: MNHN Tj117.

OTHER MATERIAL. — C. cf. brevicirrus : “ paratype ”: MRAC M.T. 35.586 from Tilapia discolor (Günther, 1903) ( Paperna 1979) (see Remarks under Cichlidogyrus dionchus chapter below).

TYPE LOCALITY. — Ouémé, Benin.

ADDITIONAL HOSTS. — Tilapia guineensis (Bleeker, 1862) (Paperna 1969) . Tilapia dageti Thys van den Audenaerde, 1971 , T. guineensis (Bleeker, 1862) and T. louka Thys van den Audenaerde, 1969 ( Pariselle & Euzet 1996). Tilapia brevimanus Boulenger, 1911 ( Pariselle & Euzet 1998).

SITE. — Gills.

ADDITIONAL LOCALITIES. — Volta Lake, Ghana on Tilapia guineensis (original description of C. halinus in Paperna 1969 ). Senegal, Guinea, Côte d’Ivoire and Congo on Tilapia guineensis ( Pariselle & Euzet 1995c) ; Côte d’Ivoire, Guinea, Senegal, Mali and Gambia on Tilapia zillii , T. dageti , T. guineensis and T. louka ( Pariselle & Euzet1996) ; Guinea on T. brevimanus ( Pariselle & Euzet 1998) .

REMARKS

In our opinion, measurements and figures given in the original description of C. cf. brevicirrus by Paperna (1969) are almost identical to those of C. digitatus Dossou, 1982 , with which this species had to be synonymised, despite the opinion of Paperna (1979), who synonymised it with C. dionchus .

Pariselle & Euzet 1996 synonymised a part of the individuals named C. halinus with C. digitatus (those found on Tilapia guineensis by Paperna [1969: fig 71 left drawing]).
