Two new species of Plagiostomum (Prolecithophora, Plagiostomidae) from China with its morphology, phylogeny, and reproductive strategy by Leyuan Feng, Shiyan Zhang, Ming Tao, Ting Sun, Antai Wang

“…Moreover, these two new species exhibit similar habits and reproductive strategies, adopting hypodermic impregnation. The reproductive studies indicate that in natural environments or larger mating groups, these two new species tend to invest resources in male reproductive functions to enhance fertilization success, while in smaller or single-individual cultures, they shift resources toward complete female reproductive functions. …”
