	The larval stages (cystacanths) of ''Neoandracantha peruensis'' were described from the ghost crab '']'' collected from the Pacific coast of Peru. While it is uncommon to describe acanthocephalan taxa from immature stages, Amin & Heckmann (2017)<ref name="AminHeckmann2017"/> claimed that the presence of clear-cut distinguishing features separating the present material from its nearest congeneric taxa, and the absence of adults, justified the erection of the new species ''N. peruensis''.

	==Morphology==
	Specimens of ''N. peruensis'' have a slender trunk with two anterior swellings, 3 separate fields of spines on the foretrunk swelling, and no genital spines on the hindtrunk. The proboscis is heavily armored with 21–22longitudinal rows of 22hooks each. Hook no. 14 is more robust ventrally than dorsally. Cystacanths of ''N. peruensis'' also have a long tubular hindtrunk and the males have diagonal testes in the midtrunk swelling.

Redirect to:

Neoandracantha

This page is a redirect. The following categories are used to track and monitor this redirect:

From a species to a genus: This is a redirect from a taxon's full binomial name (genus & species) to the taxon's higher level genus. Note that the practice of creating redirects from species names that could be articles is strongly discouraged.
- Also use {{R to monotypic taxon}} when redirecting to a monotypic genus.
- Use {{R taxon with possibilities}} for redirects that could potentially be expanded into their own articles.

With history: This is a redirect from a page containing substantive page history. This page is kept as a redirect to preserve its former content and attributions. Please do not remove the tag that generates this text (unless the need to recreate content on this page has been demonstrated), nor delete this page.
- This template should not be used for redirects having some edit history but no meaningful content in their previous versions, nor for redirects created as a result of a page merge (use {{R from merge}} instead), nor for redirects from a title that forms a historic part of Misplaced Pages (use {{R with old history}} instead).

When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized.
