Fifteen Klunzinger’s mullet, Liza klunzingeri (Day), and 13 keeled mullet, Liza carinata (Valenciennes), collected and examined from southern iraqi waters, were apparently uninfected. the gyrodactylids from the greenback mullet and speigler’s mullet were considered to have affinity toG. mu- gili Zhukov, 1970, and along with G. mugili may represent members of a species complex occurring on mullets in the indo-Pacific region. A single damaged gyrodactylid from the external surfaces of the abu mullet, Liza abu (Heckel), was insufficient for species identification.

The parasitic fauna included two myzozoans, one choanozoan, seven ciliophorans, 24 myxozoans, eight trematodes, 34 monogeneans, 12 cestodes, 11 nematodes, five acanthocephalans, two annelids and nine crustaceans. The infection with some trematodes and nematodes occurred with larval stages, while the remaining infections were either with trophozoites or adult parasites. Among the inspected fishes, Cyprinion macrostomum was infected with the highest number of parasite species (29 parasite species), followed by Carasobarbus luteus (26 species) and Arabibarbus grypus (22 species) while six fish species (Alburnus caeruleus, A. sellal, Barbus lacerta, Cyprinion kais, Hemigrammocapoeta elegans and Mastacembelus mastacembelus) were infected with only one parasite species each. The myxozoan Myxobolus oviformis was the commonest parasite species as it was reported from 10 fish species, followed by both the myxozoan M. pfeifferi and the trematode Ascocotyle coleostoma which were reported from eight fish host species each and then by both the cestode Schyzocotyle acheilognathi and the nematode Contracaecum sp.

Risk analysis ii Abstract The expansion of the South African aquaculture industry coupled with the lack of effective parasite management strategies may potentially have negative effects on both the freshwater biodiversity and economics of the aquaculture sector. Koi and goldfish are notorious for the propagation of parasites worldwide, some of which have already infected indigenous fish in South Africa. Koi and goldfish have been released into rivers in South Africa since the 1800’s for food and sport fish and have since spread extensively. These fish are present in most of the river systems in South Africa and pose an additional threat the indigenous cyprinids in the Western Cape.

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

  • The Larvae of Some Monogenetic Trematode Parasites of Plymouth Fishes
    J. mar. bioi. Ass. U.K. (1957) 36, 243-259 243 Printed in Great Britain THE LARVAE OF SOME MONOGENETIC TREMATODE PARASITES OF PLYMOUTH FISHES By J. LLEWELLYN Department of Zoology and Comparative Physiology, University of Birmingham (Text-figs. 1-28) The Order Monogenea of the Class Trematoda contains (Sproston, 1946) upwards of 679 species, but in only twenty-four of these species has a larval form been described. Of these larvae, fourteen belong to adults that para• sitize fresh-water fishes, amphibians or reptiles, and ten to adults that para• sitize marine fishes. Udonella caligorum is known (Sproston, 1946) hot to have a larval stage in its life history. In the present study, accounts will be given of eleven hitherto undescribed larvae which belong to adults that parasitize marine fishes at Plymouth, and which represent seven of the eighteen families (Sproston, 1946) of the Monogenea. For the most part the literature on larval monogeneans consists of isolated studies of individual species, and these have been listed by Frankland (1955), but the descriptions of four new larvae by Euzet (1955) appeared too late for inclusion in Frankland's list. More general observations on monogenean life cycles have been made by Stunkard (1937) and Baer (1951), and Alvey (1936) has speculated upon the phylogenetic significance of monogenean larvae. Previous accounts of monogenean larvae have included but scant reference to culture techniques, presumably because the methods adopted have been simple and successful; in my hands, however, many attempts to rear larvae have been unsuccessful, and so some details of those procedures which have yielded successful cultures are included.

I shall always feel respect for every one who has written a [dissertation], let it be what it may, for I had no idea of the trouble which trying to write common English could cost one –! CHARLES R. DARWIN, Letter to W. D. Fox, 1837 ! iii! THESIS ABSTRACT Some of the most extraordinary examples of adaptive evolution are the result of the interactions between hosts and their parasites. Although this so-called arms race between host defense and parasite virulence can have direct implications for host fecundity and survival, current research shows that parasitic infections can also change host behavioral and physiological traits. Hosts face multiple threats at any give time. Other natural enemies like predators and competitors can also reduce host survival. Thus, host-parasite adaptations may not only influence non-host species, but may, simultaneously, be influenced by their interaction with other natural enemies. The role of parasites in modulating multi-species interactions has received increased attention recently, yet the majority of examples come from single case studies. The aim of this dissertation is to fill this gap by using a model organism in evolutionary biology: the Trinidadian guppy.

  • Historical Perspective, Pioneering Researchers and Fish Health Workers, and Annotated Bibliography Andrew J
    Aquaculture 196Ž. 2001 347–438 www.elsevier.nlrlocateraqua-online Review article Finfish health in the United Statesž/ 1609–1969: historical perspective, pioneering researchers and fish health workers, and annotated bibliography Andrew J. Mitchell Harry K. Dupree Stuttgart National Aquaculture Research Center, USDA, Agricultural Research SerÕice, P.O. Box 860, Stuttgart, AR 72160, USA Accepted 30 August 2000 Abstract The importance of fish health studies prior to the 1970s is largely ignored by US fish health investigators. This is because today’s literature searches rarely obtain research information prior to 1970. The absence of this earlier literature can result in the duplication of research efforts and missing data that could change the course of a scientific investigation. This is particularly true for studies in fish parasitology. Much of the descriptive literature done between 1900 and 1950 is still valid today and may be the only work available for reference. Older data is also important to understanding disease origin and disease etiology. Information on diseased fish from the geo- graphic region, now known as the United States of America, was first recorded in about 1609 when Captain John Smith described a fish kill. In the 19th century, more than 250 pieces of literature written by US investigators were retrieved that described diseases and parasites of fish. After 1899, only the studies of more prominent fish health specialists, as determined by publication records, have been highlighted. In general, this review documents the development of fish health studies in the US. It serves as a historical document, but more importantly as a resource of older works important to today’s scientific studies.

In Banat`s waters was recorded two species of Gyrodactylus : G. elegans from the gills of bream (Abramis brama danubii) , and also in carp (Cyprinus carpio), on gills and skin, and G. medius , found on body surface and gills of the young goldfish (Carassius auratus auratus) . A varieties of this two species are discussed. G. medius is a highly pathogenic species for young goldfish and G.elegans can produced important outbreaks and damages in carp culture. Formalin can be useful for the treatment of gyrodactylosis in goldfish, but it is forbidden in carp culture. The surveillance of carp and goldfish gyrodactilosis is necessary, and they must be included by the O.I.E. list of fish diseases like salmonid gyrodactylosis. Key words: G. medius, goldfish gyrodactylosis, G. elegans, carp gyrodactylosis. Introduction Gyrodactylosis is an important ectoparasitosis of the fish, especially in aquaculture. Among the The very most of monogeneans (over 1500 parasitical diseases of fishes, only salmonid species) are fish ectoparasites, which are found gyrodactylosis with Gyrodactylus salaris is on the skin and gills. A few species are met in comprised in the O.I.E. list of fish diseases, amphibians, reptiles, cephalopods and because this little monogenean can produce mammalians (in the eye of Hippopotamus ).
