Notes: Type host for N. golvani was reported as Cichlasoma aureum; however, this species is not distributed in Lago de Catemaco; Vieja fenestrata is currently considered type host for this acanthocephalan species (Salgado-Maldonado et al. 2005 b). Not assigned to either subgenus proposed by Amin (2002) because information on egg shape and membranes is lacking. A recent molecular study suggested that N. golvani represents a complex of cryptic species, which is composed of at least 3 lineages. The first lineage, corresponding with N. golvani sensu stricto, shows a wide distribution, including localities from northeastern Mexico, southwards through central and southeastern Mexico, and further down to Costa Rica. This lineage is associated with cichlid fishes in strictly freshwater environments. Lineages 2 and 3 are distributed in brackish water systems along the Gulf of Mexico and Pacific slopes, respectively; both are associated with eleotrid fishes, and represent 2 cryptic species (Martínez-Aquino et al. 2009).

Checklist of the Acanthocephala in wildlife vertebrates of Mexico
VERACRUZ: Laguna de Alvarado, Río Blanco: Terrapene ornata (Bravo-Hollis 1946). Specimens deposited: CNHE (567, 573). Notes: The inclusion of the material from both localities in Neoechinorhynchus emyditoides has been suggested (Fisher 1960; Barger et al. 2004); however, it has been pointed out that Mexican specimens differ from N. emyditoides in several traits (Golvan 1994). Species included in the subgenus Neoechinorhynchus (Amin 2002).

    GBIF Backbone Taxonomy

    GBIF Backbone Taxonomy

    checklist

    The GBIF Backbone Taxonomy is a single, synthetic management classification with the goal of covering all names GBIF is dealing with. It's the taxonomic backbone that allows GBIF to integrate name based information from different resources, no matter if these are occurrence datasets, species pages, names from nomenclators or external sources like EOL, Genbank or IUCN. This backbone allows taxonomic search, browse and reporting operations across all those resources in a consistent way and to provide means to crosswalk names from one source to another.

    It is updated regulary through an automated process in which the Catalogue of Life acts as a starting point also providing the complete higher classification above families. Additional scientific names only found in other authoritative nomenclatural and taxonomic datasets are then merged into the tree, thus extending the original catalogue and broadening the backbones name coverage. The GBIF Backbone taxonomy also includes identifiers for Operational Taxonomic Units (OTUs) drawn from the barcoding resources iBOL and UNITE.

    International Barcode of Life project (iBOL), Barcode Index Numbers (BINs). BINs are connected to a taxon name and its classification by taking into account all names applied to the BIN and picking names with at least 80% consensus. If there is no consensus of name at the species level, the selection process is repeated moving up the major Linnaean ranks until consensus is achieved.

    UNITE - Unified system for the DNA based fungal species, Species Hypotheses (SHs). SHs are connected to a taxon name and its classification based on the determination of the RefS (reference sequence) if present or the RepS (representative sequence). In the latter case, if there is no match in the UNITE taxonomy, the lowest rank with 100% consensus within the SH will be used.

    The GBIF Backbone Taxonomy is available for download at https://hosted-datasets.gbif.org/datasets/backbone/ in different formats together with an archive of all previous versions.
