- Hexaglandula corynosoma Travassos, 1915 (Fig. 9) Localitiy. VERACRUZ: Laguna la Rivera. Specimens deposited. CNHE 7777. Remarks. The 2 specimens collected in the present study correspond to Hexaglandula corynosoma by having a ventral curved trunk covered by spines extending into the middle region of the trunk, and by lacking genital spines. The specimens show a cylindrical proboscis armed with 16 longitudinal circles of 11 hooks each, conical neck, and double-walled proboscis receptacle, attached at the base of proboscis, with cerebral ganglion at mid-level (see Petrochenko, 1958). Nickol et al. (2002) reported the presence of cystacanths and adults of H. corynosoma in Southeastern U.S.A., and recently, Guillén-Hernández et al. (2008) reported the cystacanths of this species in the decapod Uca spinicarpa and the adult in the Yellow-crowned night heron Nyctanassa violacea (Linnaeus) in Mexico. The specimens recovered from the intestine of the white ibis represent a new host record for H. corynosoma.
