Two species of the fish digenean genus Rhipidocotyle Diesing, 1858 (Bucephalidae) reported for the first time from European seas

Résumé

Two species of Rhipidocotyle are described from waters off the Scandola Nature Reserve, Corsica, France: these are the first records of these species from the Mediterranean Sea. R. capitata (Linton, 1940) from Auxis rochei and R. longicirrus (Nagaty, 1937) n. comb. (originally Bucephalopsis longicirrus Nagaty, 1937) from Seriola dumerili are also compared with similar species. R. capitata is similar to several other species of Rhipidocotyle from scombrids, but differs in the structure of the rhyncheal hood and other features. R. longicirrus has an angular, sucker-like rhynchus and, although not of a typical Rhipidocotyle-type, appears to be closer to this genus than to the other genera in which it has been previously placed.
