  • Intestinal Helminths of the White Sucker, Catostomus Commersoni (Lacepede), in SE Wisconsin

AMIN Science Division, University of Wisconsin-Parkside, Kenosha 53140 ABSTRACT: Five species of helminths were recovered from the intestine of the white sucker, Catostomus commersoni (Lacepede), in southeastern Wisconsin. Hosts were seined in five sites in both the Root River (Milwaukee and Racine counties; autumn 1971) and the Pike River (Racine and Kenosha counties; autumn 1972). The helminths are Triganodistomum attenuatum Mueller and Van Cleave, 1932 (Trem- atoda: Lissorchiidae), new locality record; Eiacetabulum macrocephalum McCrae, 1962 (Cestoda: Caryophyllaeidae), new state record; Biacetabulum biloculoides Mackiewicz and McCrae, 1965 (Cestoda: Caryophyllaeidae), new state record; Acanthocephahis dims (Van Cleave, 1931) Van Cleave and Townsend, 1936, new host and state record; Dorylaimtis sp.

  • (Nematoda: Thelazioidea) in the Blue Sucker, Cycleptus Elongatus (Lesueur, 1817), from Illinois
    Transactions of the Illinois State Academy of Science received 12/10/01 (2002), Volume 95, #2, pp. 107 - 109 accepted 2/22/02 First Record of Rhabdochona cascadilla Wigdor, 1918 (Nematoda: Thelazioidea) in the Blue Sucker, Cycleptus elongatus (Lesueur, 1817), from Illinois William G. Dyer and William J. Poly Department of Zoology Southern Illinois University Carbondale, Illinois 62901-6501 ABSTRACT Rhabdochona cascadilla was detected in the intestine of Cycleptus elongatus from the Mississippi River in Randolph County, Illinois. This constitutes the first record of this rhabdochonid nematode in the blue sucker and the only internal helminth for this host. INTRODUCTION Nematodes of the genus Rhabdochona Railliet, 1916 (Thelazioidea, Rhabdochonidae) are cosmopolitan in distribution as intestinal parasites of freshwater fishes (Moravec and Coy Otero, 1987; Moravec, 1994). Approximately 96 nominal species have been recognized of which 19 have been reported from North and South America (see Sanchez-Alvarez et al., 1998). Of rhabdochonid nematodes reported from North America, Rhabdochona cascadilla Wigdor, 1918 has been recorded in 13 families, 30 genera, and 53 species of freshwater fishes across Canada and the United States (Hoffman, 1999). Identification of Rhabdochona species is difficult as many of them have been inadequately or erroneously described, and as pointed out by Sanchez-Alvarez et al. (1998), a detailed taxonomic revision of all putative species in this group warrants initiation. MATERIALS AND METHODS A single adult female blue sucker (557 mm standard length) was collected incidentally by electrofishing on 24 October 1996 from the Mississippi River just below the mouth of the Kaskaskia River, Randolph County, Illinois and was transported alive to the laboratory.

They are soft bodied, unsegmented, dorsoventrally flattened worms having a bilateral symmetry, with organ grade of organization. Flatworms are acoelomate and triploblastic. The majority of these are parasitic. The free living forms are generally aquatic, either marine or fresh water. Digestive system is either absent or incomplete with a single opening- the mouth, anus is absent. Circulatory, respiratory and skeletal system are absent. Excretion and osmoregulation is brought about by protonephridia or flame cells. Ammonia is the chief excretory waste product. Nervous system is of the primitive type having a pair of cerebral ganglia and longitudinal nerves connected by transverse commissures. Sense organs are poorly developed, present only in the free living forms. Basically hermaphrodite with a complex reproductive system. Development is either direct or indirect with one or more larval stages. Flatworms have a remarkable power of regeneration. The phylum includes about 13,000 species. Here Dugesia and Fasciola hepatica will be described as the type study to understand the phylum. Some of the medically important parasitic helminthes will also be discussed. Evolution of parasitism and parasitic adaptations is of utmost importance for the endoparasitic platyhelminthes and will also be discussed here.

The orthogonal development of the two flagella is followed by a flagellar rotation and their proximodistal fu- sion with the median cytoplasmic process. This process is accompanied by extension of both the mitochondrion and nucleus into the median cytoplasmic process. The two pairs of electron-dense attachment zones mark the lines where the proximodistal fusion of the median cytoplasmic process with the two flagella takes place. The intercentriolar body, previously undetermined inA. foliacea, is composed of three electron-dense and two electron-lucent plates. Also new for this species is the finding of electron-dense material in the apical region of the differentiation zone at the early stage of spermiogenesis, and the fact that two arching membranes appear at the base of the differentiation zone only when the two flagella rotate towards the median cytoplasmic process. The present data add more evidence for a close relationship between the Amphilinidea and the Eucestoda.
