Zootaxa, Helminth Parasites of Freshwater Fish from Central America
Zootaxa 1915: 29–53 (2008) ISSN 1175-5326 (print edition) www.mapress.com/zootaxa/ ZOOTAXA Copyright © 2008 · Magnolia Press ISSN 1175-5334 (online edition) Helminth parasites of freshwater fish from Central America GUILLERMO SALGADO-MALDONADO Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Instituto de Biología, Laboratorio de Helmintología, Apartado Postal 70-153 CP 04510, México D. F. Mexico. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract This study is a compilation of current knowledge of the taxonomic composition and distribution of the helminth parasites of freshwater fish in Central America. A list of 111 adult helminth species up to day reported from 17 freshwater fish families from Central America was compiled. The data show a helminth parasite fauna in freshwater fish that is typical to the region. One hundred and two of the known helminth species are endemic to the area, 32 of which can be derived from South American genera. Nematodes were the most abundant group, followed by monogeneans and trematodes. None of the 29 helminth families recorded to date is exclusive to Central America, while 16 of the 65 recorded genera have been only recorded from this area. Twenty three of these genera are South American lineages. The data suggest that helminth parasites of freshwater fish from Central America constitute a recent fauna derived mainly from South America but not found there. Key words: parasites; helminths; checklist; freshwater fishes; Central America; zoogeography; Platyhelminthes; Trema- toda; Monogenea; Cestoda; Nematoda; Acanthocephala; Cichlidae; Poeciliidae; Characidae; Heptapteridae; cichlids; poeciliids endemism. Introduction Freshwater fish in Central America constitute a faunal assemblage distinct from those of North and South America, and the species within it are parasitized by their own helminth fauna. -

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. The checklist contains updated information on their hosts, habitat, and distributional records. We revise the species list according to current schemes of KEY WORDS classification for the group. The 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, modified since inaccuracies and incomplete data were identified. Even though the inventory of the Elasmobranchii, Anura, monogenean fauna occurring in Mexican vertebrates is far from complete, the data contained in our Testudines. -

Nonindigenous Aquatic Species Database Update the U.S
Nonindigenous Aquatic Species Database Update The U.S. Geological Survey’s (USGS) Nonindigenous Aquatic Species (NAS) Database (https://nas.er.usgs.gov) is the foremost national repository that monitors, records, and analyzes observations of non-native aquatic animal and plant species throughout the United States and its territories. Nonindigenous species can be either foreign or domestic and occur in waters outside of their historic native range through human intervention. All types of aquatic ecosystems, from the largest lakes and rivers to the smallest streams and ponds, wetlands, estuaries, and coastlines, are home to nonindigenous aquatic species. Since the fall of 2019 WRP update there has been 54 new introductions (new to U.S., state, county or drainage) of non-native species in western waters. Of those 54 new introductions 21 were plants, 20 mollusks (bivalves and gastropods), 5 fishes, 4 bryozoans, 2 crustaceans, 1 reptile and 1 hydrozoan (see figure 1 for locations in states). Of those sightings, 70% were new to a drainage and 20% new to a county. Two sightings were new to a state, New Zealand mudsnail (Potamopyrgus antipodarum) in South Dakota and spiny waternymph (Najas marina) in Montana. One sighting was new to the nation, Blackbelt cichlid (Vieja maculicauda) in Washington. Blackbelt cichlids are a hardy aggressive fish species from Central America on the Atlantic slope. They are in the pet trade that can reach a maximum of 12". It is assumed that the introduction has failed. Some of the species to be on the watch for include boat vector species including zebra mussels (Dreissena polymorpha) and Eurasian watermilfoil (Myriophyllum spicatum). -

C., A.P. 504, San Nicolas´ de los Garza 66450, Nuevo Leo´n, Mexico (Received 19 October 2007, Accepted 21 August 2008) The freshwater fish fauna of Mexico and Guatemala is exceptionally diverse with >600 species, many endemic. In this study, patterns of sequence divergence were analysed in representatives of this fauna using cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (COI) DNA barcodes for 61 species in 36 genera. The average divergence among conspecific individuals was 0Á45%, while congeneric taxa showed 5Á1% divergence. Three species of Poblana, each occupying a different crater lake in the arid regions of Central Mexico, have had a controversial taxonomic history but are usually regarded as endemics to a single lake. They possess identical COI barcodes, suggesting a very recent history of isolation. Representatives of the Cichlidae, a complex and poorly understood family, were well discriminated by barcodes. Many species of Characidae seem to be young, with low divergence values (<2%), but nevertheless, clear barcode clusters were apparent in the Bramocharax–Astyanax complex. The symbranchid, Opisthernon aenigmaticum, has been re- garded as a single species ranging from Guatemala to Mexico, but it includes two deeply divergent barcode lineages, one a possible new endemic species. -

A NPASP-Consistent Baseline Assessment Program for the Freshwater Fishes of Belize
PACT Research Grant Final Report A NPASP-Consistent Baseline Assessment Program for the Freshwater Fishes of Belize Peter C. Esselman School of Natural Resources and Environment University of Michigan Ann Arbor, MI 48109 [email protected] Abstract The aim of this project was to meet specific objectives of the Belize National Protected Areas Systems Plan (NPASP) by accomplishing the following objectives: 1. Develop guidance on methods for assessment of fish communities in Belize as the basis for future long term monitoring. 2. Collect and publish an online baseline dataset of the freshwater fishes of Belize 3. Make spatial prediction of fish species ranges across Belize. 4. Increase the capacity of Belizeans to conduct field research in freshwater ecosystems. In fulfilling these objectives this project helps fill a major information gap identified in the NPASP—namely our knowledge of freshwater biodiversity. The project not only extensively documented freshwater fishes, but demonstrates how existing biodiversity information can be used to make national predictions of species richness, which in turn can be used to select a network of the highest priority freshwater conservation sites. To accomplish the above objectives it was necessary to collect freshwater fishes using standard methods in 14 of the 16 major watersheds of Belize, and to use these data in conjunction with an extensive GIS database to develop predictive models of species distributions. A total of 79 fish species were collected at 126 sites, including 4 new records for Belize (bringing the national freshwater fish count to 124). Included in the sample were two non-indigenous species of tilapias. -
Regional Biosecurity Plan for Micronesia and Hawaii Volume II
Regional Biosecurity Plan for Micronesia and Hawaii Volume II Prepared by: University of Guam and the Secretariat of the Pacific Community 2014 This plan was prepared in conjunction with representatives from various countries at various levels including federal/national, state/territory/commonwealth, industry, and non-governmental organizations and was generously funded and supported by the Commander, Navy Installations Command (CNIC) and Headquarters, Marine Corps. MBP PHASE 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY NISC Executive Summary Prepared by the National Invasive Species Council On March 7th, 2007 the U.S. Department of Navy (DoN) issued a Notice of Intent to prepare an “Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)/Overseas Environmental Impact Statement (OEIS)” for the “Relocation of U.S. Marine Corps Forces to Guam, Enhancement of Infrastructure and Logistic Capabilities, Improvement of Pier/Waterfront Infrastructure for Transient U.S. Navy Nuclear Aircraft Carrier (CVN) at Naval Base Guam, and Placement of a U.S. Army Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) Task Force in Guam”. This relocation effort has become known as the “build-up”. In considering some of the environmental consequences of such an undertaking, it quickly became apparent that one of the primary regional concerns of such a move was the potential for unintentional movement of invasive species to new locations in the region. Guam has already suffered the eradication of many of its native species due to the introduction of brown treesnakes and many other invasive plants, animals and pathogens cause tremendous damage to its economy and marine, freshwater and terrestrial ecosystems. DoN, in consultation and concurrence with relevant federal and territorial regulatory entities, determined that there was a need to develop a biosecurity plan to address these concerns. -
