  • Parasites and Their Freshwater Fish Host
    Bio-Research, 6(1): 328 – 338 328 Parasites and their Freshwater Fish Host Iyaji, F. O. and Eyo, J. E. Department of Zoology, University of Nigeria, Nsukka, Enugu State, Nigeria Corresponding author: Eyo, J. E. Department of Zoology, University of Nigeria, Nsukka, Enugu State, Nigeria. Email: [email protected] Phone: +234(0)8026212686 Abstract This study reviews the effects of parasites of fresh water fish hosts. Like other living organisms, fish harbour parasites either external or internal which cause a host of pathological debilities in them. The parasites live in close obligate association and derive benefits such as nutrition at the host’s expense, usually without killing the host. They utililize energy otherwise available for the hosts growth, sustenance, development, establishment and reproduction and as such may harm their hosts in a number of ways and affect fish production. The common parasites of fishes include the unicellular microparasites (viruses, bacteria, fungi and protozoans). The protozoans i.e. microsporidians and mixozoans are considered in this review. The multicellular macroparasites mainly comprised of the helminthes and arthropods are also highlighted. The effects of parasites on their fish hosts maybe exacerbated by different pollutants including heavy metals and hydrocarbons, organic enrichment of sediments by domestic sewage and others such as parasite life cycles and fish population size. Keywords: Parasites, Helminths, Protozoans, Microparasites, Macroparasites, Debilities, Freshwater fish Introduction the flagellates have direct life cycles and affect especially the pond reared fish populations. Several studies have revealed rich parasitic fauna Microsporidians are obligate intracellular parasites in freshwater fishes (Onyia, 1970; Kennedy et al., that require host tissues for reproduction (FAO, 1986; Ugwuzor, 1987; Onwuliri and Mgbemena, 1996).

In total, 45 studies were included in the review and these provided data from 41 water bodies, comprising 12 man-made reservoirs, 21 natural lakes, and 8 water courses. Forty-one different taxa (including molluscan Glochidium sp.) in total were recorded. Of these taxa, 2 had not been previously reviewed for Turkey, and 4 were excluded from the list because of dubious identification. The Turkish parasite fauna of common carp living under natural conditions was dominated by ciliates (Ciliophora) among the protozoans and by flatworms (Platyhelminthes) among the metazoans, and this was both in terms of occurrence on fish and across water bodies. The absence of 7 taxa from both the European and North American checklists can be explained by the location of Turkey at the frontier between Asia and Europe. Additionally, the parasite fauna of the common carp in Turkey was consistently different from that of the far eastern species’ specimens.

Zoosystema 39 (4): 501-598. https://doi.org/10.5252/z2017n4a5 ABSTRACT 313 nominal species of monogenean parasites of aquatic vertebrates occurring in Mexico are included in this checklist; in addition, records of 54 undetermined taxa are also listed. All the monogeneans registered are associated with 363 vertebrate host taxa, and distributed in 498 localities pertaining to 29 of the 32 states of the Mexican Republic. Th e checklist contains updated information on their hosts, habitat, and distributional records. We revise the species list according to current schemes of KEY WORDS classifi cation for the group. Th e checklist also included the published records in the last 11 years, Platyhelminthes, Mexico, since the latest list was made in 2006. We also included taxon mentioned in thesis and informal distribution, literature. As a result of our review, numerous records presented in the list published in 2006 were Actinopterygii, modifi ed since inaccuracies and incomplete data were identifi ed. Even though the inventory of the Elasmobranchii, Anura, monogenean fauna occurring in Mexican vertebrates is far from complete, the data contained in our Testudines.

Of the nine species of ectoparasites isolated in this study, six were monogeneans (Dactylogyrus vastator, D. baueri, D. formosus, Dactylogyrus sp., Gyrodactylus chinensis and Gyrodactylus. sp.) and three were protistans (Ichthyophthirius multifiliis, Trichodina sp. and Cryptobia sp.).The isolated parasites were fixed and stained by appropriate methods. The fish were imported from south-Asia. The highest and the lowest levels of parasitism were from D. baueri and I. multifiliis respectively. Though shipments came from up to three exporting regions, all shipments were found to have high prevalence and intensity of parasites. It is suggested that exact quarantine is not performed before retail selling for imported fish. We recommend that before transporting internationally, fish should be examined for high risk parasites and other pathogens to prevent the spread of disease and parasites.

  • A Bibliography and an Index List on Parasites and Parasitic Diseases of Fish in Northern Europe
    A bibliography and an index list on parasites and parasitic diseases of fish in Northern Europe OLEG PUGACHEV Zoological Institute Russian Academy of Scienses St.Petersburg, Russia HANS-PETER FAGERHOLM Institute of Parasitology Department of Biology Åbo Akademi University Åbo, Finland & Parasitology Laboratory Department of Pathology National Veterinary and Food Research Institutue, Helsinki, Finland ISBN 951-650-506-6 1 INTRODUCTION In 1988 a symposium on "Parasites of freshwater fishes of North-West Europe" was arranged in Petrozavodsk in connection with a co-operation project between Russian (then Soviet) and Finnish scientists. During the meeting it was stated that it would be of importance to compile literature data from the northern Europe on parasites and parasitic diseases of fish. One reason for this is the fact that in countries outside Russia, the Russian literature, due to the language, is usually not well known. Also some early, especially Scandinavian, investigations have remained unnoticed as they were published in a Nordic language only. A bibliography on fish parasites and diseases, covering the geographical area in question, is likely to be useful today as the interest in fish parasitology has increased substantially in recent years. It is, in addition, feasible to produce such a work now because of the new efficient means to deal with bibliographic information given by present day computers. We hope that the bibliography will be of use to scientists and students alike. As the titles of publications originally given in Russian or Nordic languages have been translated into English we hope that this will promote the availability of this literature.

In total, 5603 parasites Aquaculture were recovered from 112 fish. The parasites were first identified morphologically as Dactylogyrus extensus, D. Parasite anchoratus, D. vastator, D. minutus, D. achmerowi and Gyrodactylus sprostonae. Representative samples were then Carp subjected to sequencing. This is one of the first studies which has provided both morphological and sequence Caspian Sea data for Dactylogyrus spp. and G. sprostonae. Our findings provide a foundation for future research into the genetic make-up of these economically significant parasites and the establishment of effective strategies for their control and prevention in aquaculture systems. Common carp (Cyprinus carpio) are widely cultured in most parts of identification which can be problematic and is often ambiguous for Europe and Asia, and on a smaller scale in Africa and Latin America. closely related species.
