  • Notophthalmus Viridescens) by a New Species of Amphibiocystidium, a Genus of Fungus-Like Mesomycetozoan Parasites Not Previously Reported in North America
    203 Widespread infection of the Eastern red-spotted newt (Notophthalmus viridescens) by a new species of Amphibiocystidium, a genus of fungus-like mesomycetozoan parasites not previously reported in North America T. R. RAFFEL1,2*, T. BOMMARITO 3, D. S. BARRY4, S. M. WITIAK5 and L. A.

Many of the pathogens recently implicated in amphibian mortality and morbidity have been fungal or members of a poorly understood group of fungus-like protists, the mesomycetozoans. One mesomycetozoan, Amphibiocystidium ranae, is known to infect several European amphibian species and was associated with a recent decline of frogs in Italy. Here we present the first report of an Amphibiocystidium sp. in a North American amphibian, the Eastern red-spotted newt (Notophthalmus viridescens), and characterize it as the new species A. viridescens in the order Dermocystida based on morphological, geographical and phylogenetic evidence. We also describe the widespread and seasonal distribution of this parasite in red-spotted newt populations and provide evidence of mortality due to infection.

  • Common Diseases of Wild and Cultured Fishes in Alaska
    COMMON DISEASES OF WILD AND CULTURED FISHES IN ALASKA Theodore Meyers, Tamara Burton, Collette Bentz and Norman Starkey July 2008 Alaska Department of Fish and Game Fish Pathology Laboratories The Alaska Department of Fish and Game printed this publication at a cost of $12.03 in Anchorage, Alaska, USA. 3 About This Booklet This booklet is a product of the Ichthyophonus Diagnostics, Educational and Outreach Program which was initiated and funded by the Yukon River Panel’s Restoration and Enhancement fund and facilitated by the Yukon River Drainage Fisheries Association in conjunction with the Alaska Department of Fish and Game. The original impetus driving the production of this booklet was from a concern that Yukon River fishers were discarding Canadian-origin Chinook salmon believed to be infected by Ichthyophonus. It was decided to develop an educational program that included the creation of a booklet containing photographs and descriptions of frequently encountered parasites within Yukon River fish. This booklet is to serve as a brief illustrated guide that lists many of the common parasitic, infectious, and noninfectious diseases of wild and cultured fish encountered in Alaska. The content is directed towards lay users, as well as fish culturists at aquaculture facilities and field biologists and is not a comprehensive treatise nor should it be considered a scientific document. Interested users of this guide are directed to the listed fish disease references for additional information. Information contained within this booklet is published from the laboratory records of the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, Fish Pathology Section that has regulatory oversight of finfish health in the State of Alaska.

  • Shellfish Diseases and Their Management in Commercial Recirculating Systems
    Shellfish Diseases and Their Management in Commercial Recirculating Systems Ralph Elston AquaTechnics & Pacific Shellfish Institute PO Box 687 Carlsborg, WA 98324 Introduction Intensive culture of early life stages of bivalve shellfish culture has been practiced since at least the late 1950’s on an experimental basis. Production scale culture emerged in the 1970’s and today, hathcheries and nurseries produce large numbers of a variety of species of oysters, clams and scallops. The early life stage systems may be entirely or partially recirculating or static. Management of infectious diseases in these systems has been a challenge since their inception and effective health management is a requisite to successful culture. The diseases which affect early life stage shellfish in intensive production systems and the principles and practice of health management are the subject of this presentation. Shellfish Diseases and Management Diseases of bivalve shellfish affecting those reared or harvested from extensive culture primarily consist of parasitic infections and generally comprise the reportable or certifiable diseases. Due to the extensive nature of such culture, intervention options or disease control are limited. In contrast, infectious diseases known from early life stages in intensive culture systems tend to be opportunistic in nature and offer substantial opportunity for management due to the control that can be exerted at key points in the systems. In marine shellfish hatcheries, infectious organisms can enter the system from three sources: brood stock, seawater source and algal food source. Once an organism is established in the system, it may persist without further introduction. Bacterial infections are the most common opportunistic infection in shellfish hatcheries.

Some live on a single fi sh, whilst others have complex life cycles with multiple hosts, spanning many years and travelling hundreds of miles before they mature and reproduce. Many parasites lead a benign existence, tolerated by healthy fi sh without causing any obvious distress. However, by their very nature, parasites divert energy from their host for their own survival and reproduction. Consequently, some parasite infections can lead to debilitation of individual fi sh and serious disease problems within populations. Here, Chris Williams and Shaun Leonard give us a brief introduction to some of those parasites and problems. The Fish Louse, Argulus Figure 1: The white, fl uffy fungal The fi sh louse, Argulus, is a resident of rivers infection of Saprolegnia, tends to and lakes and one of the most familiar be a secondary infection on open parasites encountered by anglers. Three abrasions and sores species have been recorded from British freshwater fi sh and all may be found on the skin and fi ns of trout. The largest is Argulus coregoni (Figure 2), a parasite with a preference for running water so most likely to be encountered by the wild trout angler. Home Adults, up to 10mm in size, are light brown and well camoufl aged on the fl anks of trout; the black, beady eyespots can give them away (Figure 3).

  • Probiotics in Fish Aquaculture: the Cure Against Parasitic Diseases?
    Probiotics in fish aquaculture: The cure against parasitic diseases? Author: Sascha “Remy” Brunner, MSc Marine Biology Supervisor: Dr. David Thieltges, NIOZ Texel Abstract Fish is an attractive source of protein, especially in regions where agricultural practises are limited. Aquaculture has emerged as a promising enterprise to keep up with the increasing demand for high-quality protein-rich food in an ever-growing human world population. With increasing intensiveness of the practise, stress levels in animals are also increasing. High levels of stress can lead to high susceptibility to parasitic diseases (diseases caused or transmitted by parasites) such as Ich/White Spot Disease caused by Ichthyphtirius multifiliis, Dactylogyrosis caused by gill fluke (Dactylogyrus sp.) and saprolegniasis caused by parasitic heterokonts including the genus Saprolegnia sp. Parasitic diseases have been notoriously challenging to treat because of the different parasite life stages and similarity to the host organism. In recent years, probiotics have taken the stage as an eco-friendly alternative to conventional disease treatments as they can boost fish health and growth substantially without harming the host. While there has been extensive research conducted on probiotics use against bacterial and viral infections, only few studies have proposed a probiotic treatment against parasitic diseases. In this essay, I want to discuss whether probiotics could be applied to parasitic diseases in the same manner as they can be applied to bacterial infections. I will introduce common parasitic diseases and their mode of infection together with an introduction to the most important probiotics used in aquaculture today. I will highlight the different beneficial effects that probiotics have shown in studies against bacterial diseases and evaluate whether they might have a similar effect on parasitic diseases.
