Abstract: Clariid catfishes are characterized by the presence of a unique arborescent supra-branchial organ formed by the second and fourth gill arches, which enables them to breathe atmospheric oxygen (Teugels & AdriAens 2003). This family contains 15 genera and includes 89 species that occur in the freshwaters of Africa (13 genera, 74 species), Asia Minor (1 species, also present in Africa), and South East Asia (3 genera and 15 species) (Agnèse & Teugels 2005). In Cameroonian freshwaters, 4 genera:

“…Tripathi et al [ 7 ] added generic characters, redefined the dorsal bar as “T or Y-shaped with mid-posterior process”, and limited the taxon to 25 species (including Anacornuatus postbifidus Dubey, Gupta & Agarwal, 1992 as a new combination within Quadriacanthus ). The recent descriptions of three new species from Clarias submarginatus Peters by Bahanak et al [ 8 ] brings the number of Quadriacanthus species from siluriform hosts to 28. Nack et al [ 3 ] revealed the presence of a species of Quadriacanthus on a fish host belonging to the Notopteridae (Osteoglossiformes).…”

“…Genus Quadriacanthus Paperna, 1961. The anatomy of the new species described during this study corresponds to the diagnosis of Quadriacanthus given by Paperna [12], amended by Kritsky & Kulo [9], used by Nack et al [13], Bahanak et al [14,15] and Francová et al [7].…”

“…The investigation of gill filaments of one osteoglossiform (Notopteridae) and three siluriform species, resulted in the record of four monogenean species. All recorded monogeneans were dactylogyrids, with anatomy corresponding to the diagnosis of Quadriacanthus given by Paperna [33], amended by Kritsky and Kulo [20] and used by Nack et al [30] and Bahanak et al [3]: Q. euzeti from P. afer (Prevalence = 100%, Mean Intensity = 2.5), Q. anaspidoglanii from A. macrostoma (P = 98%, MI = 3.5), Q. levequei from C. jaensis (P = 40%, MI = 1.1) and Q. barombiensis n. sp. from C. maclareni (P = 80%, MI = 4.1).…”

“…is specific to C. maclareni , i.e. oioxenous [ 10 ], as is the case for the majority of known Quadriacanthus species [ 2 , 3 , 6 , 27 – 29 , 30 , 45 ]. Quadriacanthus levequei was previously described from the gills of C .…”
