(hitherto undescribed) is reported from the lungs of artificially infected cat (Felis catus Linnaeus, 1758) from Cameroon. Its description is based on the morphology of adult worms but also, on the dimension of fresh, living eggs released from experimentally infected cats (in the metraterm of mature worms, or laid by living worm), length of prepatent period and duration of eggs incubation. Key words: Paragonimus kerberti n. sp., Paragonimidae, Digenea, Cameroon. Introduction Although the first report on paragonimiasis in Africa was published in the beginning of twentieth century (Onorato, 1920), the first description of African Paragonimidae species was done 45 years later. Voelker and Vogel (1965) described 2 species of Paragonimus, from different mammals, in Cameroon and Liberia (P. africanus and P. uterobilateralis). Bayssade-Dufour et al. (1994) suggested, after specific identification by multivariate analysis of paragonimid eggs, the presence of four species of Paragonimus in Cameroon: two already known (mentioned above) and two other, unknown and undescribed ones. Cabaret et al. (1999) conducted the study of 22 isolates of paragonimid eggs (13 newly collected) from Cameroon, Gabon, Liberia, Guinea and Congo. The authors confirmed the presence of 4 paragonimid species: P. africanus (in Cameroon), P. uterobilateralis (in Liberia, Gabon, Guinea and Congo), Euparagonimus sp. in Cameroon and Ivory Coast (provisionally named; later described as Paragonimus gondwanensis by Bayssade-Dufour, Chermette, Šundić & Radujković, 2014) and P. westermani-like in Cameroon and Gabon (provisionally named). We are going to describe the last one as a new species Paragonimus kerberti n. sp. Ecol. Mont., 2 (3), 2015,
2 PARAGONIMUS KERBERTI N.SP. FROM CAMEROON Material and Methods Research on the intermediate hosts Collection of crabs from the family Potamonautidae, Sudanonautes africanus (second intermediate hosts) and their dissection, in order to find paragonimid metacercariae cysts, were realized in the creeks of South Province (S) and South West Province (SW) of Cameroon. In South Province, the collection of crabs took place at Bikpwae, near Ebolowa (Minsolo Creek) at 2 59 N and E; altitude 636 m.a.s.l. In South West Province, at Bulutu, near Kumba (Mejeck Creek) the search was realized at N and E; altitude 2457 m.a.s.l. (Fig. 1). In the Minsolo creek, South Province (S), 18% of crabs were infected by metacercariae, i.e. 73 crabs out of 400 dissected ones. Infection rate was seasonal: 37.1% (February-March), 18.9% (April-May) and 13% (June-July). No significant difference in number of metacercariae in male and female crabs was stated. The mean number of metacercariae by infected crabs was about 4. The total of 118 metacercariae were isolated from 27 crabs: 82 (69.5%) was found in thoracic muscles, 24 (20.3%) in pereiopods, 6 (5.1%) in chelipeds, 5 (4.3%) in hemolymph and 1 (0.8%) in gills. In Bulutu, South West Province (SW), 95.6% of crabs were infected by metacercariae, i.e. 89 crabs out of 93 dissected ones. Infection rate was equal all over the year. The mean number of metacercariae by infected crabs was about 21. The total of 1,909 metacercariae were isolated from 89 crabs: 1,187 (62.1%) in thoracic muscles, 546 (28.6%) in pereiopods and 176 (9.2%) in chelipeds. Registration numbers for final hosts Cats: TM (from South West Province) - experimentally infected TM (from South Province) - experimentally infected TM (from South Province) - experimentally infected Registration numbers for adult parasites TM 1 (from South West Province) TM 1 (from South Province) TM 1 (from South Province) TM 2 (from South Province) Studied eggs are marked as: 187 TM n (where n=batches of eggs from different hosts) Experimental infection of laboratory animals (cats) The metacercariae, extracted from naturally infected crab Sudanonautes africanus (Milne Edwards, 1869), were used for experimental infection of cat (Felis catus Linnaeus, 1758). South Province: the first cat, registered as 186 TM, was infected with 19 metacercariae (14 with 2 cyst walls, 2 with 1 wall and 3 with one soft wall). The second one, registered as 187 TM, was infected with 34 metacercariae (6 with the soft wall, the wall number of other 28 not stated!). Experiments were realized in Veterinary School of Maisons-Alfort in Paris (Service of Prof. R. Chermette). The cat 187 TM was sacrificed 85 days after metacercarial meal (2 adult worms of P. kerberti n.sp. were collected) and the cat 186 TM after 331 day (15 adult worms of P. kerberti found, four stained or used for different analyses). South West Province: the cat, 101 TM, was infected in Faculty of Medicine Paris V with Bulutu strain metacercariae. The cat was infected with 26 metacrecariae with 2 cyst walls. This cat has been sacrificed 362 days after metacercarial meal and 4 adult worms of P. kerberti were collected. The specimen 101 TM 1, was used for serial longitudinal histological section, in order to reconstruct the shape and size of small organs and confirm the presence of new species in SW Province. The cats were tranquillized and anesthetized with Calmivet R and Dolethal, and then dissected by routine procedure. The adult parasites and eggs were isolated from the lungs. Study methods for adult worms Three studied worms from South Province (186 TM 1, 187 TM 1, 187 TM 2 ) were flattened between slide and coverslip and fixed in formaldehyde. Then, they were stained in toto by Chlorhydric Carmin, mounted in 272

4 PARAGONIMUS KERBERTI N.SP. FROM CAMEROON Study methods for metacercariae The metacercariae were excysted spontaneously in 0.9 % NaCl solution. A part of them were excysted with needles, or by shaking cysts in water. Study methods for eggs Parameters selected: 1. length of prepatent period: the cat 187 TM was monitored, 2. size of living eggs emitted at the beginning of the prepatent period (from 187 TM 1, 187 TM 2 ), 3. size of eggs laid by a living worms from cat (187 TM n ) 4. size of eggs in the metraterm (terminal portion of the uterus) of worms (187 TM 1, 187 TM 2 ), 5. duration of incubation, until hatching of eggs (from feces: 101 TM; from tracheal mucus: 187 TM). Results New paragonimid species, Paragonimus kerberti n. sp., was found in different pulmonary cysts of infected cats. Adult worms were present in pair, in the same cyst.

(Figs. 2A-B, 3) Material studied: Adult worms from experimentally infected cats were studied. The type specimens were deposited in National History Museum of Paris, France. Registration numbers: holotype 187 TM 1 ; paratype 187 TM 2. Etymology: The specific name Paragonimus kerberti was given in honour to Coenraad Kerbert, who described P. westermani, type species of the genus (in 1878). First intermediate host (snail): unknown. Second intermediate host (crustacean): Sudanonautes africanus (A. Milne-Edwards, 1869). Definitive hosts: Felis catus (experimental). Site: lungs. Type locality: Bikpwae, in South Province of Cameroon: 2 59 N, E, altitude: 636 m.a.s.l. (Fig. 1) Other localities: Bulutu, Béchati and Mahollé, near Tombel in South-West province of Cameroon. Bulutu is settled at N, E; altitude 2457 m.a.s.l. Mahollé is settled at N, E; altitude 523 m.a.s.l. (Fig. 1). Description of the adult worms The adult worms originated from the lungs of final hosts, experimentally infected. New species is described after 3 adult ovigerous worms: 186 TM 1, 187 TM 1, 187 TM 2. Measurements were done upon one young (85 days old) and one older (331 days old) specimen. 274

6 PARAGONIMUS KERBERTI N.SP. FROM CAMEROON Description of the metacercariae Excysted living metacercariae measured x µm. They had a long excretory bladder, filled with dark granules, extending either between the two suckers, or close to the pharynx. The excretory pore was terminal. Suckers subequal; OS/VS ratio range from 0.75 to Figure 3. Metacercariae of P. kerberti n. sp. (scale bar 100 µm). Measurement of eggs The metraterm eggs measure in length 98 µm, based on 20 specimens. First living laid eggs measure 102 (85-115) x 60 (48-75) µm (20 specimens). The duration of incubation (35 eggs monitored), at 22 C, was 37 days, with a very long period of morula stage. Prepatent period (period between infection with a parasite and appearance of eggs in feces) unknown, probably about days. In cat 187 TM all the mated worms after 85 days were ovigerous. Remarks Paragonimus kerberti n.sp. is the fourth paragonimid species described from Africa. This species can be distinguished from other African paragonimids by four main characteristics: triangular testes, larger anteriorly than posteriorly, with small rounded lobes on the inner part, hand shape ovaries with 5-10 lobes, falciform seminal vesicle, posterior to the ventral sucker, utrerus in the form of 8.
