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.

Three species of the monogenean genus Cichlidogyrus Paperna, 1960 (C. sclerosus Paperna & Thurston, 1969, C. halli (Price & Kirk, 1967) and C. tilapiae Paperna, 1960) are reported for the first time from Japan based on specimens from the gills of tilapias (Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus niloticus and Mozambique tilapia O. mossambicus) in Okinawa Prefecture. These host species are of African origin, and the monogeneans found are definitely alien parasites that were introduced along with their African tilapias to Okinawa Prefecture.

The fish morphometric parameters Total Length (TL); Standard Length (SL); Cephalic Length (CL), body Height (H) in cm, and Total Weight (Wt in g) were measured. Prevalence, Mean Intensity and Abundance were estimated according to sexe, age and size of the host. 202 individuals of C.cubitus were collected, showing a global occurrence of 79%, a mean intensity of 6.7, and an abundance of 5.31. In females Cichlids, C.cubitus prevalence (90%) and abundance (6) were respectively higher than in males (64.7%; 4.5), and the mean intensity was 7 in males and 6.6 in females. Prevalence according to age varied considerably with 83% in fishes< 1year, 67% in fishes from 2 to 3 years, and 100% in fishes over 3 years.

I. gravivaginus Paperna and Thurston, 1969, with Description of Three New Species Parasitic on African Cichlids ANTOINE PARISELLE' AND Louis EuzET2 1 Laboratoire de Parasitologie, ORSTOM/C.R.O., 01 B.P. V 18, Abidjan 01, Cote d'lvoire and 2 Laboratoire de Parasitologie Comparee, Station Mediterraneenne de FEnvironment Littoral, 1 Quai de la Daurade, 34200 Sete, France ABSTRACT: Scutogyrus gen. n. (Monogenae: Ancyrocephalidae) is denned for Cichlidogyrus longicornis minus Dossou, 1982, on Sarotherodon melanotheron (Cichlidae). This new genus is characterized by a dorsal transversal bar enlarged laterally with, in its median portion, 2 very long auricles hollow at their base and by the ventral transversal bar arched, rigid, and supporting 1 large, thin, oval plate. In agreement with Douellou (1993), C. longicornis Paperna and Thurston, 1969, on Oreochromis niloticus and C. gravivaginus Paperna and Thurston, 1969, on O. leucostictus are considered valid; the new combinations Scutogyrus longicornis (Paperna and Thurs- ton, 1969) and S. gravivaginus (Paperna and Thurston, 1969) are proposed for them. Three new species are also described: Scutogyrus bailloni sp. n. on Sarotherodon galilaeus, S. ecoutini sp. n. on S. occidentalis, and S. chikhii sp. n. on O. mossambicus. A key to the species of Scutogyrus is given. RESUME: Un nouveau genre Scutogyrus gen. n. (Monogenea: Ancyrocephalidae) est defini pour Cichlidogyrus longicornis minus Dossou, 1982 parasite de Sarotherodon melanotheron. Le nouveau genre est caracterise par la morphologic de la barre tranversale dorsale elargie lateralement et munie de 2 tres longs auricules et de la barre transversale ventrale arquee, rigide, supportant 1 mince plaque ovoide.

Abstract Little phylogeographic structure is presumed for highly mobile species in pelagic zones. Lake Tanganyika is a unique ecosystem with a speciose and largely endemic fauna famous for its remarkable evolutionary history. In bathybatine cichlid fishes, the pattern of lake-wide population differentiation differs among species. We tested the magnifying glass hypothesis for their parasitic flatworm Cichlidogyrus casuarinus. Lake-wide population structure of C. casuarinus ex Hemibates stenosoma was assessed based on a portion of the mtCOI gene combined with morphological characterisation. Additionally, intraspecific mitogenomic variation among 80 individuals within one spatially constrained parasite metapopulation sample was assessed using shotgun NGS. While no clear geographic genetic structure was detected in parasites, both geographic and host- related phenotypic variation was apparent. The incongruence with the genetic north-south gradient observed in the host may be explained by the broad host range of this flatworm as some of its other host species previously showed no lake-wide restriction of gene flow.
