| dc.description.abstract | The infected fish were caught in backwaters of the upper Rio Negro, Amazonas State, Brazil. The new species is morphologically similar to Artystone trysibia SCHIODTE, 1866, from which it differs in several important respects. A. minima n. sp. is smaller (3.3 - 6.9 mm rather than 22 - 25 mm). The small body size of these parasites permits them to infect smaller fish hosts (3 - 4 cm instead of 15 - 30 cm). | pt_BR |

A nova espécie é morfologicamente semelhante à Artystone trysibia SCHILDT, 1866, da qual se distingue por vários caracteres importantes. A mínima n. sp. é menor (3.3 - 6.9 mm em vez de 22.- 25 mm). O tamanho pequeno destes parasitas faz com que podem invadir hospedeiros menores (3 - 4 cm e não 15 - 30 cm). | pt_BR |
