TL;DR: The Indo-Westpacific origin of the genus Neohaliotrema has been established and the interrelationships between investigated hosts and their parasites are discussed.
Abstract: 6 new species of the genus Neohaliotrema Yamaguti, 1965 are described and a new genus and species, Paraneohaliotrema microspathodoni Zhukov gen. et sp. n., (Monogenoidea, Polyonchoinea) from the fishes of the family Pomacentridae from the of Gulf Mexico are erected. the specimens described were found in Abudefduf saxatilis, A. taurus and Microspathodon chrysurus caught in the Habana region. The interrelationships between investigated hosts and their parasites are discussed. The Indo-Westpacific origin of the genus Neohaliotrema has been established.
TL;DR: Analysis of cytogenetic analyses on three Pomacentridae species showed a trend that the lower the dispersive potential, the greater the quantity of fixed pericentric inversions based on the basal karyotype of the Perciformes.
