Abstract

Sciadicleithrum iphthimum is reported from the gills of Pterophyllum scalare (Cichlidae), collected from aquarium markets in Uttar Pradesh, India. The new material fits well with the original species description. The report represents a new geographic record and another case of a growing list of freshwater monogenoids that are being distributed around the world by the aquarium trade.
