  • 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.

  • The Molecular Phylogeny of the Digenean Family Opecoelidae Ozaki, 1925 and the Value of Morphological Characters, with the Erection of a New Subfamily
    © Institute of Parasitology, Biology Centre CAS Folia Parasitologica 2016, 63: 013 doi: 10.14411/fp.2016.013 http://folia.paru.cas.cz Research Article The molecular phylogeny of the digenean family Opecoelidae Ozaki, 1925 and the value of morphological characters, with the erection of a new subfamily Rodney A. Bray1, Thomas H. Cribb2, D. Timothy J. Littlewood1 and Andrea Waeschenbach1 1 Department of Life Sciences, Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London, UK; 2 School of Biological Sciences, The University of Queensland, St Lucia, Queensland, Australia Abstract: Large and small rDNA sequences of 41 species of the family Opecoelidae are utilised to produce phylogenetic inference trees, using brachycladioids and lepocreadioids as outgroups. Sequences were newly generated for 13 species. The resulting Bayesian trees show a monophyletic Opecoelidae. The earliest divergent group is the Stenakrinae, based on two species which are not of the type-genus. The next well-supported clade to diverge is constituted of three species of Helicometra Odhner, 1902. Based on this tree and the characters of the egg and uterus, a new subfamily, the Helicometrinae, is erected and defined to include the generaHelicometra , Helicometrina Linton, 1910 and Neohelicometra Siddiqi et Cable, 1960. The subfamily Opecoelinae is found to be monophyletic, but the Plagioporinae is paraphyletic. The single representative of the Opecoelininae (not of the type genus) is nested within a group of deep-sea ‘plagioporines’. The two representatives of the Opistholebetidae are embedded within a group of shallow-water ‘plagioporine’ species. The Opistholebetidae is reduced to subfamily status pro tem as its morphological and biological characteristics are distinctive.

Echinostoma miyagawai Es. miyagawai belongs to the “37 collar-spined” or “revolutum” group, which is very difficult to identify and Echinostomatidae classify based only on morphological characters. Molecular techniques can resolve this problem. The present Mitochondrial genome study, for the first time, determined, and presented the complete Es. miyagawai mitochondrial genome. A Comparative analysis comparative analysis of closely related species, and a reconstruction of Echinostomatidae phylogeny among the Phylogenetic analysis trematodes, is also presented. The Es. miyagawai mitochondrial genome is 14,416 bp in size, and contains 12 protein-coding genes (cox1–3, nad1–6, nad4L, cytb, and atp6), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), two ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs), and one non-coding region (NCR). All Es. miyagawai genes are transcribed in the same direction, and gene arrangement in Es. miyagawai is identical to six other Echinostomatidae and Echinochasmidae species. The complete Es. miyagawai mitochondrial genome A + T content is 65.3%, and full- length, pair-wise nucleotide sequence identity between the six species within the two families range from 64.2–84.6%.

There is, however, presently no study conducted on the endoparasites infestation in these fishes. Therefore, the objectives of the present study were to identify endoparasitic worms and examine the intensity level in skipjack tuna K. pelamis from Sibolga waters. Sampling was conducted in Debora Private Fishing Port, Sibolga from 4th to 18th June 2019 and a total of 20 fish samples with weight ranged between 740 g and 1.200 g and length from 37.2 cm to 41.4 cm were analyzed in the study. The identification of the worm was conducted in the laboratory using a stereo microscope. The results showed seven species or genera of worms were found in the intestine and stomach of the fish with varying level of intensity and incidence. For example, Echinorhynchus sp. was found with 100% intestinal and 10% stomach incidences at a total intensity of 8.5; Acanthocephalus sp. with 25% intestinal incidence and 1.6 intensity, Rhadinorhynchus sp. with 25% intestinal and 5% stomach incidences, and 1.5 intensity; Leptorhynchoides sp.

To My Mother and My Country SIJ}IMARY l_ The biology and ecology of the native Australian insect, the Cypress Twig Borer (CTB), Uracanthus cupressiana sp.n., on the exotic conifer, CuÞre ssus semDervirens. were sLudied between 1983 and l9B7 - Outbreaks of CTB have occurred periodically for some decades, yet the species is still undescribed and its biology noL studied. In this present study, the species is described, the genus to which this insect belongs is reviewed, and 2 keys are presented, one to separate closely related genera, the other to separate species of the genus Uracanthus. In the field this insect mostly has a biennial life cycle, with a fer¡ individuals developing in one year. Under laboratory conditions, sorne may even have a triennial life cycle. Beetle emergence and reproductive activity occur in spring and summer, reaching a peak in November. The number emerging increases on warm sunny days and decreases on cold cloudy days. The establishment of young larvae mosLly occurs in surnmer. Most of the insectfs life is spent in the larval stage. There are 6 to 7 larva1 instars, the 1arva1 stage taking 14 to 22 months, sometimes more than 2 years under laboratory conditions.

In the present study, five roadkilled oncillas Leopardus( tigrinus Schreber, 1775) were collected in the State of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Chronic lesions caused by O. pardalis were observed in the small intestine of one of the specimens. Histological examination identified a well-defined leukocyte infiltration and an area of collagenous fibrosis. Only males parasites (n = 5) were found, with a prevalence of 20%. The life cycle of Oligacanthorhynchus species is poorly known, although arthropods may be their intermediate hosts. The low prevalence encountered may be related to the small number of hosts examined, and the reduced ingestion of arthropods infected by larvae of O. pardalis. This is the first report ofO. pardalis parasitizing L. tigrinus in the Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul. Keywords: Oncilla, Oligacanthorhynchus, lesions, Neotropical Region. Resumo Para o Brasil, Oligacanthorhynchus pardalis (Westrumb, 1821) Schmidt, 1972 foi registrada em cinco espécies de felídeos silvestres. No presente estudo, cinco gatos-do-mato-pequenos (Leopardus tigrinus Schreber, 1775), vítimas de atropelamento, foram coletados no Estado do Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil.
