“…Slightly higher prevalence in the spotted goatfish herein studied was observed in comparison to M. argentinae , lane snapper Lutjanus synagris (Cavalcanti et al, 2013), mutton snapper Lutjanus analis (Hermida et al, 2014), blue runner Caranx crysos, castin leatherjacket Oligoplites saliens and largehead hairtail Trichiurus lepturus (Carvalho-Souza et al, 2009), and the former have reported by the first time its occurrence in the Baía de Cotegipe, Bahia, Northeast Brazil. Contrarily to that observed in this study, high prevalence rates were found in Spanish mackerel Scomberomorus brasiliensis and in parrotfish Sparisoma frondosum from the Rio Grande do Norte (Lima et al, 2005;Cavalcanti et al, 2012). Bunkley-Williams et al (2006) reported low prevalences of R. signata in tomtate grunt Haemulon aurolineatum (0.45%), Corocoro grunt Orthopristis ruber (0.49%) and in glasseye Heteropriacanthus cruentatus (0.22%).…”

Gill metazoan parasites of the spotted goatfish Pseudupeneus maculatus (Ostheichthyes: Mullidae) from the Coast of Pernambuco, northeastern Brazil

et al. 2017

This study evaluated the parasite fauna on the gills of spotted goatfish Pseudupeneus maculatus captured in the dry and rainy seasons in the coast of the State of Pernambuco, Brazil. Eight parasite species were identified belonging to the following taxa: Monogenea (Haliotrema caraïbensis, Haliotrema caballeroi and Haliotrema golvani); Crustacea (Rocinela signata, Hamaticolax scutigerulus and Caligidae gen. sp.) and Cestoda (Nybelinia indica and Pseudolacistorhynchus noodti). The most prevalent parasites were: Monogenea (100%), H. scutigerulus (35%), N. indica (11.7%), R. signata (8.3%), Caligidae gen. sp. (3.33%) and P. noodti (0.83%). Values of infestation are compared to other studies, and the uncommon occurrence of Trypanorhyncha on the gills suggests that the spotted goatfish could be an intermediate host for the parasite.Keywords: marine fish, infestation, parasitology.

“…When comparing these data with those recorded for the fishes from other parasite hotspots of Neotropics (Mexico and Caribbean), it is possible to affirm that the fauna of parasitic crustaceans of Brazilian fishes is the richest in the region.

Checklist of Crustacea parasitizing fishes from Brazil

Materials and MethodsThe list of parasitic crustaceans of fishes in Brazil was based on extensive search of published records. This bibliographic review of the crustacean species reported from fishes in Brazilian waters was complemented with information from the Zoological Record, Biological Abstracts, Web of Knowledge, Google Scholar, Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Abstracts, Biological and Agricultural Index Plus and the Scopus. Data were compiled until March, 2013. In the case of parasitic copepods, only information not presented in the checklist of Copepoda parasites of fishes from Brazil by Luque and Tavares (2007) was included. The number of parasitic associations was calculated from the sum of the richness of species of parasites on each host species.The checklist follows the classification and systematic arrangement proposed by Boxshall and Halsey (2004) for Copepoda, and Young (1998) and Martin and Davis (2001) for other crustacean groups.The species of crustaceans are arranged according to taxonomic categories, within which the species are presented in alphabetical order, followed by hosts (specific name), site of infection, habitat, localities and references (between parentheses, in chronological order). In addition, the checklist also includes crustacean species identified only at the genus level and undetermined species. Crustacean names presented in the checklist follow the most recent taxonomic literature, but validity of individual taxa or reliability of their records was not critically examined by the present authors. Host species were arranged in taxonomic and then alphabetical order.The key to identification of the genera of parasitic crustaceans from fishes in Brazil has been produced on the basis of those by Delaney

“…In the present study, every one cymothoid species recorded, characterized by an oioxenic parasitic specificity was found on a single host fish. Cymothoid species are often attached in the mouth cavity and the gills chambers of the host, better protected and with higher oxygen level and blood irrigation (Lima et al 2005). To date, the maximum number of the Indian Cymothoids was noticed on the body surface rather in the branchial chambers and the buccal cavity .…”

Parasitic isopods from marine fishes off Nagapattinam coast, India

et al. 2014

This study was conducted from August 2013 to January 2014. Host fishes were collected from the Nagapattinam Coast, India. During the sampling period, 242 fishes were infested out of 1440 specimens examined from nine different species of marine fishes. A total of 267 parasitic isopods belonging to nine cymothoid species viz., Anilocra dimidiata (Bleeker 1857), Catoessa boscii (Bleeker 1857), Cymothoa indica (Schioedte and Meinert 1884), Joryma sawayah (Bowman and Tareen 1983), Nerocila arres (Bowman and Tareen 1983), N.loveni (Bovallius 1887) N. phaiopleura (Bleeker 1857), N. serra (Schioedte and Meinert 1881) and N.sundaica (Bleeker 1857) were collected. The Nerocila species were attached to the pectoral fin, the caudal peduncle and different regions of the body surface of the host fishes. The specimen belonging to the species Catoessa boscii, Cymothoa indica and Joryma sawayah were collected from the mouth and the branchial cavity of the infected fishes. Anilocra dimidiata was only found on the body surface of the host fish. The overall prevalence reached 16.80 %. A maximum prevalence was observed in C. boscii parasitizing Carangoides malabaricus (26.81 %) and a minimum prevalence in N. sundaica parasitizing Terapon puta (P = 7.31 %). The mean intensity ranged from 1 to 1.3.
