            <p>Description based on 23 parasite specimens. Dorsal anchor with long and thick inner root (= guard, superficial root, ventral root), distal end slightly curved outwardly; out- er root (= shaft, deep root, dorsal root) very short and less thick than inner root; blade with arched base ends distally in point; thick filament covers blade and apart of point. Dorsal bar slightly curved anteriorly with more or less rounded extremities pierced, each with a small circular hole. Ventral anchor, small with outer root narrower and shorter than inner root; presence of eccentric small lenticular fenestration at base of the inner root; hull and thick, slightly sclerotised filament covers blade ending in little fine and short point. Ventral bar, V-shaped, made up of two straight symmetrical arms separated medially. Presence of seven pairs of hooks in three types according to their shape, size and position. Latero-ventral hooks II, V, VI, VII of similar shape and size [i.e. thin, without shank (= distal subunit)], resemble those present in ancyrocephaline oncomiracidia (larval hook). They correspond to proximal subunit (= outer root +thumb+point) in Kritsky and Kulo (1999); medio-ventral hook pairs I and IV enlarged with thick and long shank; latero-dorsal hooks III with moderately developed shank; presence of dorsal structure in shape of flared amphora (onchuim). Male copulatory organ (MCO) consists of long tubular penis (average 249 µm) associated with complex accessory piece composed of single unit, round ends, presenting ridges and a crumpled protuberance, with grooves at distal portion of MCO. Vagina, slightly coiled (2 turns) at its base, ends in sclerotised structure.</p>
            <p>The measurements of the parasite in toto, the haptoral and the copulatory sclerotised parts are shown in Table 1.</p>
            <p> Etymology.  edeaensis refers to locality where the type host was collected. </p>
            <p> Remarks.  Protoancylodiscoides edeaensis sp. nov. is close to  P. mansourensis El-Naggar, 1987 and  P. chrysichthes Paperna, 1969 by the morphology of haptor sclerotised parts. It is distinguished from  P. mansourensis and  P. chrysichthes by: (1) size of some sclerotised parts, mainly: (i) dorsal anchor a = 93 (87–97) in  P. edeaensis sp. nov. vs a = 88 (81–93) in  P. mansourensis and a = 64 (55–69) in  P. chrysichthes ; b = 67 (64–70) in  P. edeaensis sp. nov. vs b = 50 (44–56) in  P. chrysichthes (ii) ventral anchor a = 48 (46–51) in  P. edeaensis sp. nov. vs a = 33 (29–38) in  P. chrysichthes ;(2) penis length 249 (222–278) in  P. edeaensis sp. nov. vs 325 (302–347) in  P. mansourensis ; (3) morphology of vagina: less coiled (2 turns) with a ridge-like structure vs 4–5 turns at the base, and flared in the distal part for  P. mansourensis , while it curls up and turns around at the distal part for  P. chrysichthes . </p>

            <p>Description based on five individuals. Dorsal anchors with long and thick inner root, ending by trunk-like structure, outer root quite non-existent, blade arched at its base but ending in point, thick filament covers middle section of blade. Dorsal bar in chevron, slightly curved, with hole at each extremity where small extension folds towards front face of bar. Ventral anchors, smaller than their dorsal counterparts, with narrow outer root shorter than inner one, lenticular fenestration at base of each inner root, hull and thick filament less sclerotised; blade with thin and short point. Ventral bar V-shaped made up of two arms joined medially. Presence of seven pairs of hooks in three types according to their shape, size and position. Latero-ventral hooks II, V, VI, VII of similar shape and size [i.e. thin, without shank (= distal subunit)], resemble those present in ancyrocephaline oncomiracidia (larval hook). They correspond to proximal subunit (= outer root +thumb+point) in Kritsky and Kulo (1999); medio-ventral hook pairs I and IV enlarged with thick and long shank; latero-dorsal hooks III with moderately developed shank; presence of dorsal structure in shape of elongated amphora with sclerification in its central part (onchuim). Presence in haptor of dorsal onchium longer than wide. Male copulatory organ consists of long tubular penis associated with accessory piece made up of two subunits: one as an irregular structure with ridges, and the second one a massive plate. Vagina presenting one coil at its base, turns around at its distal extremity which is in form of calyx.</p>
            <p>The measurements of the parasite in toto, the haptor and the copulatory sclerotised parts are shown in Table 1.</p>
            <p> Etymology.  yombai refers to Mr. André Pierre Yomba for his invaluable contribution in fish collection. </p>
            <p> Remarks.  Protoancylodiscoides yombai sp. nov. is close to  P. edeaensis sp. nov. ,  P. mansourensis and  P. chrysichthes by the morphology of ventral bar, ventral anchors, dorsal onchium and hooks. However, it differs from these species by: (1) morphology of vagina with a turn of whorl at distal part before calyx in  P. yombai sp. nov. , while well coiled at base in  P. mansourensis , and looped (1 turn) in  P. chrysichthes ; (2) morphology of onchium, that of  P. yombai sp.nov. is in shape of elongated amphora with sclerification in its central part while that of  P. edeaensis sp.nov. is in shape of flared amphora; (3) the size of some sclerotised parts, mainly: (i) dorsal anchor a = 76 (75–78) i n  P. yombai sp. nov. vs a = 93 (87–97) i n  P. edeaensis sp. nov , a = 88 (81–93) i n  P. mansourensis and a=64 (55–69) i n  P. chrysichthes ; (ii) dorsal bar x=38 (36–39) in  P. yombai sp. nov. vs x = 48 (45–53) i n  P. edeaensis sp. nov , x = 45 (40–48) in  P. mansourensis and x = 41 (34–46) in  P. chrysichthes ; (iii) ventral anchor x=34 (32–36) in  P. yombai sp. nov. vs x = 48 (46–51) in  P. edeaensis sp. nov and x = 44 (39–47) in  P. mansourensis ; (iv) penis length =152 (136–168) in  P.yombai sp. nov. vs 249 (222–278) i n  P. edeaensis sp. nov , 325 (302–347) in  P. mansourensis and 255 (162–365) in  P. chrysichthes . </p>

            <p>Description based on 18 individuals. Dorsal anchors with long and thick inner root ending less thick and curved distal extremity, outer root with shallow dent, blade arched and ending by strong point, thick filament covers middle of blade. Dorsal bar in chevron slightly curved with rounded extremities each pierced with circular hole. Ventral anchors, smaller than their dorsal counterparts, have an outer root narrower, off-center triangular fenestration at the base of each inner root, hull, thick and slightly sclerotised filament covers the base of the blade which ends in a thin and short point. Ventral bar V-shaped, consisting of two arms joined medially. Presence of seven pairs of hooks in three types according to their shape, size and position. Latero-ventral hooks II, V, VI, VII of similar shape and size [i.e. thin, without shank (= distal subunit)], resemble those present in ancyrocephaline oncomiracidia (larval hook). They correspond to proximal subunit (= outer root +thumb+point) in Kritsky and Kulo (1999); medio-ventral hook pairs I and IV enlarged with thick and long shank; latero-dorsal hooks III with moderately developed shank; presence of dorsal pouch-like structure (onchuim) wider than long. Male copulatory organ consists of a long tubular penis (228 µm) associated with accessory piece, composed of two superimposed subunits, of unequal thickness, forming a body with their crumpled distal parts. The sclerotised vagina is coiled at its base and flared in the distal part.</p>
            <p>The measurements of the parasite in toto, the haptor, and the copulatory sclerotised parts are shown in Table 1.</p>
            <p> Etymology.  dibambaensis refers to the River Dibamba where fish hosts were collected. </p>
            <p> Remarks. By the lack of the onchium and morphology of some sclerotised parts of the haptor, mainly ventral bar and dorsal anchor,  Protoancylodiscoides dibambaensis sp. nov. is close to  P. ivoiriensis Bouah, N’Douba &amp; Pariselle, 2021 from  Clarotes laticeps (Rüppell, 1829) . However, it differs from this species by the morphology of: (1) the dorsal bar: presence of fenestrations and folds at the extremities in  P. dibambaensis sp. nov. vs absence of these features in  P. ivoiriensis , (2) the ventral anchor: presence of a fenestration at each extremity in  P. dibambaensis sp. nov. vs lack of the fenestration in  P.ivoiriensis ; (3) the hooks: all hooks keep the larval form (ancyrocephaline oncomiracidia) in  P. ivoiriensis unlike only hook pairs II, V, VI and VII have retained the larval form in the new species.  Protoancylodiscoisdes dibambaensis sp. nov. also differs from  P. ivoiriensis by the size of: (1) the penis length = 155 (118–191) vs 103 (74–116); (2) the dorsal bar x = 42 (38–47) vs 29 (27–34); (3) the ventral anchor a=34 (31–36) vs 27 (24–28). </p>
