FIGURE 1. Cysts and spores de Myxobolus bragantinus n. sp. in Mugil rubrioculus. (a) Cysts observed macroscopically in the gill filaments (arrows). Scale bar = 100 µm; (b) Cyst (*) in the gill filament (F). Scale bar = 20 µm. A ruptured cyst is marked with an asterisk (*). Scale bar = 10 µm; (c) Numerous spores (S) following the rupture of the cyst (**). Scale bar = 20 µm. In the detail, free spores in frontal view, showing the polar capsules (PC). Scale bar = 10 µm.
