This represents a rediscovery of A. minor in the Lake Biwa basin after a gap of nearly 80 years. It appears not to be distributed in Lake Biwa proper, but to occur rarely in rivers and irrigation canals of a limited coastal area around the lake. To date, 10 nominal species of acanthocephalan in four families and three orders have been re- ported from fish in the Lake Biwa basin. Among these, striking morphological similarities between Acanthocephalus aculea- tus Van Cleave, 1931 and its congener A. opsariichthydis Yamaguti, 1935 are noted. It is furthermore suggested that A. gotoi Van Cleave, 1925 could not maintain its population after the basin’s wild population of its major host, Anguilla japonica Temminck and Schlegel, 1846, disappeared in the mid-1960s.

This acanthocephalan was described as Acanthosentis (Acanthosentis) alternatspinus by Amin (2005). bAcanthocephalus aculeatus had been synonymized with Acanthocephalus echigoensis by Harada (1935), but Petrochenko (1956) and Yamaguti (1963) listed the former spe- cies as valid. cYamaguti (1935) described Acanthocephalus opsariichthydis using specimens from seven species of fish (P. curta, C. carpio, H. barbus, O. uncirostris uncirostris, O. platypus, P. parva, and P. asotus) caught in three localities, Lake Biwa (Shiga Prefecture), Lake Ogura (Kyoto Prefecture), and the Yodo River (Osaka Prefecture), all of which belong to the same river system, but he did not differentiate these localities from each other in his description of the species. However, according to Amin et al. (2007), only P. parva was collected in Lake Biwa. Thus, this fish is cited here from Yamaguti (1935).d Golvan (1969) described a new species, Echi- norhynchus oblitus, by citing Kataoka and Momma (1937), but Nagasawa et al. (2007) relegated E. oblitus to a junior

A bibliographic analysis of these papers, the number of species reported in the checklists, and a list of new species are presented in this paper. Key words: Acanthocephala, new species, checklist, bibliography The Phylum Acanthocephala is a relatively small group of endoparasitic helminths (helminths = worm-like animals that are parasites; not a monophyletic group). Adults use vertebrates as definitive hosts (fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals), eggs are passed in the feces and infect arthropods (insects and crustacean) as intermediate hosts, where the cystacanth develops, and the cystacanth infects the definitive host when it is ingested. In some cases, fishes, reptiles, and amphibians that eat arthropods serve as paratenic (transport) hosts to bridge ecological barriers to adults of a species that typically does not feed on arthropods.

E-mail: [email protected] The parasitism of trahira, Hoplias malabaricus, by the acanthocephalan Quadrigyrus machadoi was studied. Fish were collected at a pond located on Palmeiras Farm (21o59’19"S, 47o12’04"W), municipal district of Aguaí, São Paulo, Brazil, during the period of January, 2002 to May, 2003. Among the 64 specimens analyzed, 56 (prevalence=87.5%) were infected with three to 573 specimens of Quadrigyrus machadoi (mean intensity=119.0±120.6 and mean abundance=104.1±119.4). Most of the parasites were found in the mesenterium as cystacanths. Some fish contained adult female parasites in the intestine, but gravid females were not verified. Parasite indices were analyzed in relation to the biological parameters of sex and standard length of the trahira, as well as with regard to the dry and the rainy periods defined for the area.

Expression of parasite traits related to transmission, such as the manipulation of host phenotype, may peak in seasons when transmission is optimal. The acanthocephalan Acanthocephalus lucii is primarily transmitted to its fish definitive host in spring. We assessed whether the parasitic alteration of 2 traits (hiding behaviour and coloration) in the isopod intermediate host was more pronounced at this time of year. Refuge use by infected isopods was lower, relative to uninfected isopods, in spring than in summer or fall. Infected isopods had darker abdomens than uninfected isopods, but this difference did not vary between seasons. The level of host alteration was unaffected by exposing isopods to different light and temperature regimes. In a group of infected isopods kept at 4 xC, refuge use decreased from November to May, indicating that reduced hiding in spring develops during winter.

There is, however, presently no study conducted on the endoparasites infestation in these fishes. Therefore, the objectives of the present study were to identify endoparasitic worms and examine the intensity level in skipjack tuna K. pelamis from Sibolga waters. Sampling was conducted in Debora Private Fishing Port, Sibolga from 4th to 18th June 2019 and a total of 20 fish samples with weight ranged between 740 g and 1.200 g and length from 37.2 cm to 41.4 cm were analyzed in the study. The identification of the worm was conducted in the laboratory using a stereo microscope. The results showed seven species or genera of worms were found in the intestine and stomach of the fish with varying level of intensity and incidence. For example, Echinorhynchus sp. was found with 100% intestinal and 10% stomach incidences at a total intensity of 8.5; Acanthocephalus sp. with 25% intestinal incidence and 1.6 intensity, Rhadinorhynchus sp. with 25% intestinal and 5% stomach incidences, and 1.5 intensity; Leptorhynchoides sp.

Twenty-four previously known, 2 new, and 4 unidentified species in 17 gen- era and 12 families are recorded. Three dubious literature records are also mentioned. All 30 con- firmed species, except Sanguinicolidae gen. sp. (Aporocotylidae), are described and figured. Life cy- cles are discussed where known. Philopinna kawamutsu sp. nov. (Didymozoidae) was found in the connective tissue between the vertebrae and the air bladder near the esophagus of Nipponocypris tem- minckii (Temminck and Schlegel) (Cyprinidae). Genarchopsis yaritanago sp. nov. (Derogenidae) was found in the intestine of Tanakia lanceolata (Temminck and Schlegel) (Cyprinidae). Asymphylodora innominata (Faust, 1924) comb. nov. is proposed for A. macrostoma Ozaki, 1925 (Lissorchiidae). A key to the families, genera, and species of these digeneans is provided. Host-parasite and parasite- host lists are given. Key words: adult digeneans, Trematoda, parasites, morphology, life cycle, Philopinna kawamutsu sp.

    Acta vet. scand. 1995, 36, 299-318. A Checklist of Metazoan Parasites from Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) By K. Buchmann, A. Uldal and H. C. K. Lyholt Department of Veterinary Microbiology, Section of Fish Diseases, The Royal Veterinary and Agricultural Uni­ versity, Frederiksberg, Denmark. Buchmann, K., A. Uldal and H. Lyholt: A checklist of metazoan parasites from rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss. Acta vet. scand. 1995, 36, 299-318. - An extensive litera­ ture survey on metazoan parasites from rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss has been conducted. The taxa Monogenea, Cestoda, Digenea, Nematoda, Acanthocephala, Crustacea and Hirudinea are covered. A total of 169 taxonomic entities are recorded in rainbow trout worldwide although few of these may prove synonyms in future anal­ yses of the parasite specimens. These records include Monogenea (15), Cestoda (27), Digenea (37), Nematoda (39), Acanthocephala (23), Crustacea (17), Mollusca (6) and Hirudinea ( 5). The large number of parasites in this salmonid reflects its cosmopolitan distribution. helminths; Monogenea; Digenea; Cestoda; Acanthocephala; Nematoda; Hirudinea; Crustacea; Mollusca.
