Indopolystoma View in CoL n. gen. sp.
Synonym: Polystoma indicum of Verneau et al. [ 51], Badets et al. [ 2] and Héritier et al. [ 22].
Type-host: Rhacophorus maximus Günther. Now View in CoL Zhangixalus smaragdinus (Blyth) View in CoL [ 21, 27].
Site: Bladder.
Type-locality: India.
Remarks: Indopolystoma sp. was tentatively assigned to P. indicum from Z. smaragdinus by Verneau et al. [ 51], Badets et al. [ 2] and Héritier et al. [ 22]. However, because we did not have any information on morphological characteristics of this species, which is nested in a clade with I. viridi , I. elongatum and I. parvum ( Fig. 1 View Figure 1 ; see also [ 2, 22, 51]), we must for now consider it as an undescribed species of Indopolystoma .
