  • Description:
    The genus Pseudoterranova was first proposed by Aleksei Mozgovoi in his 1950 unpublished thesis. The genus name was introduced in multiple papers and book chapters in 1951, although which publication has primacy is debated because later researchers differed in their designated attributions. The type species was the former Porrocecum kogiae (syn. Terranova kogiae), as this helminth, taken from a South Australian pygmy sperm whale ( Kogia bereviceps), was morphologically distinct from both the genera Terranova and Porrocecum. The genus Terranova still exists, but is restricted only to parasites of elasmobranch fish.
