ABSTRACT:The genetic identification of the larvae of a species of Anisakis collected from North-East Atlantic squids was investigatedby electrop- horetic analysis of 17enzyme loci. The correspondence of type I larvae with the sibling species A. simplex B is confirmed. Both I//ex coindetii and Todaropsis eblanae squids represent new host records for sibling B. KEYWORDS:Multilocus enzyme electrophoresis, Anisakis simplex B, squids, NE Atlantic. INTRODUCTION Electrophoretic analyses: For the electrophoretic tests, homoge- nates were obtained from single individuals crushed in distilled water. These were absorbed in 5 by 5 mm chromatography paper Electrophoretic analysis of genetically determined (Whatman 3MM) and inserted in 10% starch gel trays.

Parasites of Coral Reef Fish: How Much Do We Know? with a Bibliography of Fish Parasites in New Caledonia
Belg. J. Zool., 140 (Suppl.): 155-190 July 2010 Parasites of coral reef fish: how much do we know? With a bibliography of fish parasites in New Caledonia Jean-Lou Justine (1) UMR 7138 Systématique, Adaptation, Évolution, Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle, 57, rue Cuvier, F-75321 Paris Cedex 05, France (2) Aquarium des lagons, B.P. 8185, 98807 Nouméa, Nouvelle-Calédonie Corresponding author: Jean-Lou Justine; e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT. A compilation of 107 references dealing with fish parasites in New Caledonia permitted the production of a parasite-host list and a host-parasite list. The lists include Turbellaria, Monopisthocotylea, Polyopisthocotylea, Digenea, Cestoda, Nematoda, Copepoda, Isopoda, Acanthocephala and Hirudinea, with 580 host-parasite combinations, corresponding with more than 370 species of parasites. Protozoa are not included. Platyhelminthes are the major group, with 239 species, including 98 monopisthocotylean monogeneans and 105 digeneans. Copepods include 61 records, and nematodes include 41 records. The list of fish recorded with parasites includes 195 species, in which most (ca. 170 species) are coral reef associated, the rest being a few deep-sea, pelagic or freshwater fishes. The serranids, lethrinids and lutjanids are the most commonly represented fish families. Although a list of published records does not provide a reliable estimate of biodiversity because of the important bias in publications being mainly in the domain of interest of the authors, it provides a basis to compare parasite biodiversity with other localities, and especially with other coral reefs. The present list is probably the most complete published account of parasite biodiversity of coral reef fishes. -

Lake Albert is facing multiple environmental changes, including declining fish species diversity, hyper-eutrophication, hypoxia, and reduced fish catches. To examine the role of Nile perch and Nile tilapia in the food web in their native Lake Albert, we estimated their diets using stable nitrogen and carbon isotopes. In Lake Albert, the tilapiine congeners (closely related species), Tilapia zillii, Oreochromis leucostictus, and Sarethorodon galilaeus, and the centropomid Nile perch congener, Lates macrophthalmus, have narrower diet breath in the presence of the native O. -

Hence when a patient presents with atypical gastroenteritis, bacterial and viral infection is often the presumptive diagnosis. Anisakid nematodes are important accidental pathogens to humans and are acquired from the consumption of live worms in undercooked or raw fish. Anisakiasis, the disease caused by Anisakis spp. -

Story of Contracaecum nematodes in antipodean waters Shokoofeh Shamsi School of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Graham Centre for Agricultural Innovations, Charles Sturt University, Australia article info abstract Article history: Contracaecum spp. are parasitic nematodes belonging to the family Anisakidae. They are known to Received 26 October 2018 be able to have highly pathogenic impacts on both wildlife (fish, birds, marine mammals) and Received in revised form 16 January 2019 humans. Despite having the most numerous species of any genus of Anisakidae, and despite a Accepted 16 January 2019 wide range of publications on various aspects of their pathogenicity, biology and ecology, there are no recent comprehensive reviews of these important parasites, particularly in the Southern Hemisphere. In this article, the diversity of Contracaecum parasites in Australian waters is reviewed and possible anthropological impacts on their populations are discussed. The abundance and diver- sity of these parasites may have been under-reported due to the inadequacy of common methods used to find them. Populations of Contracaecum parasites may be increasing due to anthropogenic factors. To minimise the risk these parasites pose to public health, preventive education of stake- holders is essential. There are still many unknown aspects of the parasites, such as detailed informa- tion on life cycles and host switching, that will be interesting directions for future studies. © 2019 Published by Elsevier Ltd on behalf of World Federation of Parasitologists.
