“…Caligidae Burmeister, 1835 are parasitic copepods that are distributed around the world. This family comprises 31 valid genera and more than 500 species (Öktener et al 2016, Ho et al 2016, Oliveira et al 2020, Hemmingsen et al 2020, Hamdi et al 2021a, which predominantly utilize marine and brackish fish as their hosts. In marine and brackish water fish, members of the Caligidae family caused 61.0% of infestations (Hemmingsen et al 2020).…”

This review surveyed information on Caligus Müller, 1785 to identify global infestation patterns and geographic distribution in teleost fishes, as well as physiological and histopathological data and description of treatment strategies. A total 990 samples of Caligus spp. (N = 212 species) obtained of 233 scientific papers on farmed and wild teleost species from 99 families and 30 orders were used, and the highest number of occurrences was on Carangidae. Caligus spp. was predominantly found in marine environments, and only Caligus lacustris and Caligus epidemicus were found in teleost fish of freshwater environments. There was a high prevalence of Caligus spp. on hosts and infestation occurred predominantly in both the tegument and the gills. Caligus species are distributed across different countries and some particularities were identified and discussed. Caligus elongatus and Caligus bonito bonito had the broadest geographic distribution. Histomorphological and hematological disorders caused by infestation by Caligus spp. were reported and discussed, as well as chemotherapeutic products used for controlling and treating the infestations. Variation in the distribution and geographic patterns of Caligus spp. were little evident in many ecosystems and due to the limited data on the infestation of these sea lice on teleost populations in different regions.

“…In marine and brackish water fish, members of the Caligidae family caused 61.0% of infestations (Hemmingsen et al 2020). Members of this family occupy a privileged place in the world of parasitism because of their extraordinary adaptive capacity, and are predominantly external parasites, mainly of fishes (Oliveira et al 2020).…”

In total, 13 species of Caligus have been reported from Malaysia. Amongst them, four species are reported from lutjanid fishes. Caligus dussumieri Rangnekar, 1957 is reported from Malabar snapper, Lutjanus malabaricus, purchased from a local wet market in Terengganu, Peninsular Malaysia. This is the first record of this species in Malaysia and it is only the second species assigned to the bonito-group of the genus Caligus to be reported from Malaysia. A key to species of the bonito-group is presented herein. The list of caligids infecting lutjanid fishes and the geographical distributions plus the known hosts of members of the bonito-group of Caligus are discussed.
