Six distinct actinospore types were identified in the intestinal epithelium of oligochaetes collected from the Szigetbecse and Makád fish farms of Ráckeve Danube Arm Fishing Association, in Hungary. Four new types: triactinomyxon type, raabeia type, aurantiactinomyxon type 1, and aurantiactinomyxon type 2, were described morphologically and molecularly from three invertebrate host species: , and . The 18S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) analysis revealed that these new types of actinospores did not match any myxospore sequences available in GenBank. Phylogenetic analysis placed the triactinomyxon type within the clade that parasitizes cyprinid fish, while the raabeia type and aurantiactinomyxon type 2 were both placed within the clade associated with Perciformes fish. Aurantiactinomyxon type 1 was clustered in a clade containing gill-infecting spp. from Esociformes fish. However, no myxospores have been found yet to link to the newly sequenced actinospores reported in this survey. This study also reports the first occurrence of two oligochaetes species, and in Hungary, specifically in fish farms of Ráckeve Danube Arm Fishing Association. Moreover, this is the first report on the involvement of in the life cycle of myxozoans.

During a 2-month survey in 2023 at Tasik Telabak, Terengganu, Malaysia three distinct actinospore types, namely raabeia, triactinomyxon and aurantiactinomyxon were identified in three invertebrate host species: , sp., and sp. utilizing morphometric and molecular analyses Maximum likelihood of 18S rDNA positioned the raabeia type within the clade from fish of the Order Cypriniformes, suggesting a detected actinospore has a potential life cycle development in Cypriniformes and the genus .

We describe, morphologically and molecularly, a new actinosporean from the intestinal epithelium of the freshwater oligochaete Ilyodrilus templetoni in the upper estuary of the River Minho, Northern Portugal. Mature actinospores resembled both echinactinomyxon and raabeia types, emphasizing the previously known lack of a clear boundary between these 2 collective groups. Historically, raabeia and echinactinomyxon types have been differentiated solely based on the shape of the valvular processes being curved or straight, respectively.

An aurantiactinomyxon type is described from the marine naidid Tubificoides pseudogaster (Dahl, 1960), collected from the lower estuary of a Northern Portuguese River. This type constitutes the first of its collective group to be reported from Portugal, and only the fourth described from a marine oligochaete worldwide. Extensive morphological comparisons of new aurantiactinomyxon isolates to all known types without available molecular data are proposed to be unnecessary, given the artificiality of the usage of morphological criteria for actinosporean differentiation and the apparent strict host specificity of the group.

We investigated the involvement of oligochaetes in the life cycles of fresh water myxozoan parasites in Brazil. In a fish farm in the State of Mato Grosso do Sul, we examined 192 oligochaetes and found that two (1%) released Aurantiactinomyxon type actinospores. We identified infected oligochaetes by morphology: both were Pristina synclites, from family Naididae.
