Transvenidae is a family of parasitic spiny-headed (or thorny-headed) worms in the order Echinorhynchida. This family contains three species divided into two genera.
Taxonomy and description
Phylogenetic analysis has been conducted.[2]
Species
There are three genera and six species in the family Transvenidae:[3][4][lower-alpha 1][lower-alpha 2]
Paratrajectura Amin, Heckmann et Ali, 2018
- Paratrajectura longcementglandatus Amin, Heckmann et Ali, 2018
Sclerocollum Schmidt and Paperna, 1978
- Sclerocollum robustum (Edmonds, 1964)
- Sclerocollum rubrimaris Schmidt and Paperna, 1978
- Sclerocollum saudii Al-Jahdali, 2010
Trajectura Pichelin & Cribb, 2001[1] Trajectura is distinguished by the possession of only two cement glands and an anterior conical projection (function unknown) on the females.[1]
- Trajectura ikedai (Machida, 1992)
Diplosentis ikedai was found to share similar anatomical features (only two cement glands and an anterior conical projection on females) was renamed T. ikedai.[1]
- Trajectura perinsolens Pichelin and Cribb, 2001
T. perinsolens Was found parasitising the New Guinea wrasse Anampses neoguinaicus from the Great Barrier Reef, Queensland, Australia .[1]

Hosts
- Hosts for Transvenidae species
The New Guinea wrasse (Anampses neoguinaicus) is one of the hosts of T. perinsolens
Notes
- ↑ A binomial authority in parentheses indicates that the species was originally described in a genus other than the present genus.
- ↑ Pararhadinorhynchus Johnston & Edmonds, 1947[5] including Pararhadinorhynchus magnus.[6] Pararhadinorhynchus is sometimes classified within the Diplosentidae.[6]
