An Evaluation of the Genera Longicollum and Paralongicollum (Pomphorhynchidae: Acanthocephala) in Australia.

The significance of known host species of P. edmondsi and their geographical distribution around the Australian coast was analysed. The geographical distribution of the genus Paralongicollum, Amin, Bauer & Siderov, 1991, across the Indo Pacific was compared to that of the acanthocephalan genus Sclerocollum Schmidt & Paperna, 1978.
