Abstract: Octomacrum spinum Dansby & Shoemaker, 1973, is reported for the first time from 23 of 146 (16%) highland stonerollers, Campostoma spadiceum collected from central and western Arkansas and southeastern Oklahoma, USA. Analysis of molecular data revealed that the SSU rRNA gene of specimens of O. spinum from Arkansas was identical to a number of Octomacrum spp. and the LSU rRNA gene was 97.46% similar to Octomacrum europaeum. We also provide a summary of the species of Octomacrum reported from North American and European fishes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
