“…In Brazil, three species have been reported to date: T. laticollis (Rudolphi, 1819) from the scombrid Thunnus albacares (Bonnaterre) [24], T. pauca Texeira de Freitas & Kohn, 1965 from carangids Selene setapinnis (Mitchill) and Scomberoides sp. [28,89], and T. selenei Amato, 1983 from carangids Caranx hippos (L.) and S. setapinnis [2,16]. Wallet and Kohn [89] considered T. selenei as a synonym of T. pauca; however, according to a recent study of Wee et al [91] this species is valid.…”

Although some parasitological efforts have focused on the frigate tuna Auxis thazard (Lacepède) (Scombriformes, Scombridae) in Brazil, its digenean fauna remains poorly known. Combining morphological and molecular methods, we investigated the diversity of digenean trematodes of A. thazard collected from the coastal waters off the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in 2021. Six species belonging to four families were recorded: the bucephalid Rhipidocotyle cf. angusticolle Chandler, 1941, the didymozoid Didymocystis sp. 6 sensu Louvard et al. (2022), the fellodistomid Tergestia sp., and three hemiurids, Dinurus euthynni Yamaguti, 1934, Lecithochirium floridense (Manter, 1934), and L. synodi Manter, 1931. The current study brings the total number of digenean trematode species parasitising A. thazard in Brazil up to eight, with hemiuroid trematodes being most diverse. Auxis thazard is a new host record for L. floridense, L. synodi and potentially for R. angusticolle. The geographic distribution of several species found in our study appeared to be wider than previously known. Our study is the first to apply a DNA-based approach to digenean diversity in marine fishes in Brazil and we believe that both morphological descriptions and molecular sequence data provided in our study will aid future research assessing the diversity of digenean trematodes of A. thazard and other marine fishes in Brazil.

“…5) In South America the genus Tergestia Stossich, 1899, has been recorded only in Brazil where it comprises four species. These are, in the State of Rio de Janeiro: T. Pauca, proposed by Freitas & Kohn (1965) and cited by Wallet & Kohn (1987); T. pectinata (Linton, 1905), cited by Takemoto et al (1995Takemoto et al ( , 1996; and T. priacanthi (MacCallum, 1917), described by Fábio (1981); and in the State of Santa Catarina: T. selenei Amato, 1982. Tergestia laticollis was originally described from the Mediterranean Sea in Trachurus trachurus and has been reported from the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans in different hosts. Regarding tunna, this trematode was already reported from Puerto Rico in Euthynnus alletteratus by Siddiqi & Cable (1960), and in Florida (after Yamaguti, 1971).…”

Some digenea parasites of tunny from the coast of Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil

Rhipidocotyle pentagonum (Ozaki, 1924) is reported for the first time in South America parasitizing Auxis thazard and in a new host Katsuwonus pelamis. Tergestia laticollis (Rudolphi, 1819) is reported for the first time in South America and in Thunnus albacares, representing a new host record. Copiatestes filiferus (Leuckart, in Sars, 1885) is recorded for the first time in Brazil and in Thunnus albacares, another new host record. Tetrochetus coryphaenae (Yamaguti, 1934) is presented for the first time in Brazil parasitizing Thunnus albacares.

Combined morphological and molecular analyses are employed to characterise three species of Tergestia Stossich, 1899 (Digenea: Fellodistomidae) from fishes of Moreton Bay, Queensland, Australia. Tergestia clonacantha Manter, 1963 is reported here for the first time from the halfbeak (Beloniformes: Hemiramphidae) species Arrhamphus sclerolepis krefftii (Steindachner), Hyporhamphus australis (Steindachner), H. quoyi (Valenciennes) and H. regularis ardelio (Whitley). Two new species, both infecting trevally (Perciformes: Carangidae) species, are described: T. maryae n. sp. from Alepes apercna Grant and T. henryi n. sp. from Pantolabus radiatus (MacLeay). Complete ITS2 and partial 28S ribosomal DNA data were generated for each of the new taxa. The three species differ from each other by 47-58 base pairs (bp) in the ITS2 rDNA region. Phylogenetic analysis of 28S rDNA supports Tergestia as a reliable generic concept, with our analyses showing that some species of the genus form a well-supported clade to the exclusion of all other fellodistomids for which sequence data are available.
