Atopkin1,2 & Karina P. Chalenko3 & Ha V. Nguyen4 Received: 20 November 2018 /Accepted: 16 July 2019 /Published online: 3 August 2019 # Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract Intraspecific variation of Parasaccocoelium mugili collected from mullet fish of the south of Russian Far East and Vietnam has previously been estimated on the basis of two molecular markers: ribosomal internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS1) rDNA and mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I (COI) gene sequences. In the present study, molecular identification of this species from the Kievka River, Primorye and from Vietnam was performed by analysis of 28S rDNA sequences. Analysis of ITS1 rDNA sequences variation revealed two highly differentiated main groups, representing trematode specimens from the two regions. Genetic variation within each region was relatively low. Mitochondrial COI gene sequence data analysis revealed fixed nucle- otide and amino acid substitutions, and supported the existence of two genetically different groups associated with geographical origin. Analysis of the COI gene fragments showed extremely high variation within Russian and Vietnamese P. mugili samples. Our results for P. mugili most probably represent a case of initial step of allopotric speciation for this trematode, caused by living strategy of its definitive host at evolutionary scale. Mitochondrial DNA sequence data show that existence of gene flow between local populations of P. -

2014 ASP Annual Report
Introduction I AM DELIGHTED TO PRESENT TO YOU THE 2014 ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE AUSTRALIAN SOCIETY FOR PARASITOLOGY INC., WHICH HAS BEEN PREPARED BY OUR ASP NETWORK TEAM, LISA JONES, IAN HARRIS AND NICK SMITH. Parasitology research in Australia continues to flourish, with over 490 research papers published in 2014 and various, well-deserved honours bestowed on ASP Members, including the induction of three new Fellows of the ASP: Geoff McFadden; Tom Cribb; and Rob Adlard. However, funding for our research reached a low point for the last decade, with only 37 research grants or fellowships (worth $17 million) awarded to ASP members, versus 10-year averages of 60 grants (range: 37-87) and $34 million (range, $17-54 million). This reduced funding is being experienced across diverse disciplines and is, by no means, a reflection of any ASP President, Robin Gasser decline in quality or intensity of parasitological research in this country. Unfortunately, though, at this point there is no sign of a reversal of this disturbing trend in research funding patterns in Ryan O’Handley (SA Reps), Colin Stack (NSW rep.), Melanie Leef Australia, which seems to buck many international trends. Thus, (Tasmania rep.), Jutta Marfurt and Benedikt Ley (NT reps), Abdul international linkages forged by schemes like our own Researcher Jabbar (Victorian rep.), Mark Pearson (QLD rep.), Alan Lymbery Exchange, Training and Travel Awards, will become increasingly and Stephanie Godfrey (WA reps), Chris Peatey and Tina Skinner- important and critical.

Zoogeography of Digenetic Trematodes from West African Marine Fishes1
192 PROCEEDINGS OF THE HELMINTHOLOGICAL SOCIETY Zoogeography of Digenetic Trematodes from West African Marine Fishes1 JACOB H. FISCHTHAL Department of Biological Sciences, State University of New York at Binghamton, Binghamton, New York 13901. ABSTRACT: Of the 107 species of trematodes found in West African (Mauritania to Gabon) marine fishes, 100 are allocated to 64 genera in 24 families while seven are immature didymozoids. Many of these genera are located in most of the world's seas with the exception of the polar seas; only five are en- demic to West Africa. The data for the 41 species known from West Africa and elsewhere, and those morphologically closest to the 55 endemic species, indicate that they are very widely distributed, particularly in the Western and North Atlantic, and Mediterranean. Historical and present- day events concerning physical and biological environmental factors and their effects on actual and po- tential hosts as well as on life cycle stages of the trematodes have resulted in the geographical distribution reported. The distribution of marine fishes has been emphasized to explain in part the trematode distribu- tion. Studies on the geographical distribution of (Gulf of Guinea from 5° S to 15° N) and digenetic trematodes of marine fishes in various warm temperate Mauritania have been pre- seas have been presented by Manter (1955, sented by Ekman (1953), Buchanan (1958), 1963, 1967), Szidat (1961), and Lebedev Longhurst (1962), and Ingham (1970). (1969), but West African waters were not included as sufficient data were not available Zoogeographical Distribution until more recently. The digenetic trematodes Of the 107 species of trematodes found in of West African marine fishes (mainly shore West African fishes, 100 are allocated to 64 and shelf inhabitants) have been reported by genera in 24 families while seven are immature Dollfus (1929, 1937a, b, 1946, 1951, 1960), didymozoids of unknown generic status (Ap- Dollfus and Capron (1958), Thomas (1959, pendix I). -

FLORA AND FAUNA 7.1 EXISTING SITUATION 7.1.1 Scope This chapter addresses the matters listed in the ToR under the heading ‘Flora and Fauna’. These ToR include broad matters of environmental significance, ecosystems, and biodiversity and cover a wide range of often interrelated topics. These are discussed as follows: sensitive environmental areas matters of national environmental significance and state environmental significance* terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems* listed flora* listed fauna* listed migratory birds* overall biodiversity ecological processes and integrity* Ramsar wetlands and migratory bird agreements* fish and fisheries resources. Details of threats to biodiversity from pest plants and animals are provided in Chapter 19 (Biosecurity). Matters designated by an asterisk (*) can involve either or both Queensland and Commonwealth legislation. Chapter 22 (Matters of NES) deals specifically with the issues designated above from a Commonwealth perspective. Cross references between these chapters are provided as appropriate. 7.1.2 Information Sources This chapter draws heavily on technical assessments based on terrestrial and aquatic surveys as follows: July 2013 (aquatic – Appendix F; terrestrial – Appendix G) October 2013 (aquatic – Appendix F; terrestrial – Appendix G) February / March 2014 (aquatic – Addendum 1 of Appendix F; terrestrial – Appendix G); off- shore lake pipeline – Appendix H). It also refers to the protected matters search (Appendix I) and a range of government and private data sources. Aquis Resort at The Great Barrier Reef Revision: Final Environmental Impact Statement - June 2014 Page 7-1 7.1.3 Sensitive Environmental Areas Although the site is largely cleared, it is surrounded by remnant coastal vegetation and marine areas, most of which are sensitive environmental areas protected under a raft of Queensland legislation. -

E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT. The present study aimed to evaluate the activation characteristics of the lebranche mullet spermatozoa in natura and diluted with CF-HBSS for 96h at 4±2°C. The semen was collected from eight wild fish in Florianópolis – SC (Brazil) (27°S) in May, during reproductive migration. Three pools of semen were divided into two treatments: in natura and diluted with CF-HBSS 1:3. The semen was activated with seawater (salinity of 34, pH 8.7 and 4±2°C) to determine: motility time, motility rate and sperm cell membrane integrity. Dilution with CF-HBSS 1:3 increased motility time of diluted semen (15- 20% for 6, 12 and 18h). Motility rate was equal to fresh semen for up to 24h of refrigeration and it was 30% higher than in natura semen at 12, 18 and 24h. Cell membrane integrity was maintained in fresh semen up to 6h, and it was 15-20% higher than in natura semen from 6 to 48h (p < 0.05).
