Abstract

. Guidelines for the preparation of a species description of myxosporean species are proposed. The establishment of a new myxosporean species has to be based on the morphology of both spores and vegetative stages as observed in a fresh state. All important diagnostic features are listed and diagrams for size measurements are presented.
