In M. pontodrilli the trophozoite crescent shaped and mucron is present in one end of the trophozoite. On the contrary, it is also crescent shaped in the present form. Nucleus is rounded and present in conical portion of the present species. But in M. nidata and M. pontodrilli, it is ovoid, centralized and rounded present either at the anteriormiddle or the posterior end respectively. Trophozoite is cylindrical with rounded extremities of one end and slightly wider than other in M. Darjeelingensis. In M. Darjeelingensis, nucleus is spherical in shape and present in the narrow portion. Furthermore, M. darjeelingensis is much larger in all respects than the present form and earlier described other species. The oocyst is navicular in M. nidata and M.darjeelingensis respectively.While, in M.Pontodrilli it is spindle or boat shaped but biconical in the current species. Moreover, M. nidata and M. pontodrilli have been described from Pontodrilus ephippiger of Asia and Indo-China and Pontodrilus barmudensis of South India respectively whereas, M.darjeelingensis and the present species have been reported from Amynthas robusta of Senchal lake of Darjeeling and Eutyphoeus orientalis of Ashoknagar, North 24 Parganas district of West Bengal, India respectively.</p> <p>Taking into account all the differences with the closely related species, the present species seems to be new one.
