“…The results concerning the other helminths found during this study have been published recently (Kohn & Fernandes, 1988a,b;Kohn et al, 1988Kohn et al, , 1989. This is the first record in South America of a monogenean parasite from the urinary bladder and ureter of fishes.…”

“…Thirty-two fishes (43%) were parasitised by four species of Nematoda and two (2.7%) by one species of Monogenea. Trematoda, Cestoda, Acanthocephala and Monogenea from the gills were not found (Kohn et al, 1989).…”

Specimens of the characid fish Brycon hilarii collected in dry and wet seasons in the River Juba, Tangará da Serra, State of Mato Grosso, Brazil, were surveyed for nematode parasites. Contracaecum sp. Type 1 and Type 2 larvae of Moravec, Kohn et Fernandes, 1993 were detected in the mesentery and liver, and Neocucullanus neocucullanus and Procamallanus (Spirocamallanus) inopinatus were observed in the intestine and pyloric caeca. 75 % of the nematodes were detected in the wet season. This is the first report of fish parasites from the River Juba and of the occurrence of Contracaecum larvae in B. hilarii.

“…fasciatus and A. jacuhiensis by Kohn et al (1989), but a comparison of its ecological parameters between these host species is missing. The present study aims to fulfill this gap by providing a detailed description of the morphology of P. (S.) hilarii from Lake Guaiba, Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil, and discussing their ecological parameters in light of their trophic relations.…”

In this study we describe the morphology of P. (S.) hilarii parasitizing Astyanax aff. fasciatus and Astyanax jacuhiensis, and compare ecological parameters of their populations. Seventy A. aff. fasciatus and 60 A. jacuhiensis individuals were captured in Lake Guaiba, Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil, between March 2012 and December 2013. The specimens of P. (S.) hilarii presented an oval oral opening with 6 cuticular elevations and 2 groups of papillae (one internal and one external) in the anterior region of the body. Males have 8 pairs of sessile caudal papillae (4 pre-cloacal and 4 post-cloacal), spicules with distal bifurcation and lack caudal alae. The prevalence of P. (S.) hilarii was higher in A. aff. fasciatus (69%) than in A. jacuhiensis (18%), whereas there was no difference in mean intensity (respectively, 2 and 5) and mean abundance (respectively, 1.6 and 0.9) of infection between the 2 host species. We suggest that the consumption of copepods, intermediate hosts of P. (S.) hilarii, Resumen Procamallanus (Spirocamallanus) hilarii (P. (S.) hilarii) parasita varias especies de peces, pero son escasos los estudios publicados sobre su morfología y ecología. En este estudio describimos la morfología de P. (S.) hilarii que parasitan las mojarras Astyanax aff. fasciatus y A. jacuhiensis y comparamos diferentes parámetros ecológicos de sus poblaciones. Entre marzo de 2012 y diciembre de 2013, capturamos 70 individuos de Astyanax (A.) aff. fasciatus y 60 de A. jacuhiensis en el Lago Guaiba, estado de Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Los ejemplares de P. (S.) hilarii presentaron una abertura oral de forma oval con 6 elevaciones cuticulares y 2 grupos de papilas (una interna y otra externa) en la región anterior del cuerpo. Los machos presentaron 8 pares de papilas caudales sésiles (4 precloaca y 4 poscloaca), espículas con bifurcación distal y ausencia de ala caudal. La prevalencia de P. (S.) hilarii fue mayor en A. aff. fasciatus (69%) que en A. jacuhiensis (18%). Sin embargo, no existieron diferencias en la intensidad promedio (2 y 5 respectivamente) y la abundancia promedio (1.6 y 0.9 respectivamente) de infección entre las 2 especies hospederas. Sugerimos que el consumo de copépodos, hospederos intermediarios de P. (S.) hilarii, podría explicar esta diferencia.
