“…These signs are consistent with the observations made in monogenean records from cage‐reared barramundi and greater amberjack ( Seriola dumerili ) in Australia and Spain (Deveney et al, 2001; Grau et al, 2003). Studies in Brazil and the western South Atlantic have also reported lack of appetite, erratic swimming, exophthalmia and skin haemorrhages associated with monogenean infections in goliath grouper ( Epinephelus itajara ) and dog snapper ( Lutjanus jocu ) (da Costa Silva et al, 2014; Oliveira et al, 2020).…”

According to the latest report of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), global aquatic animal production grew on average 5.3% per year between 2001 and 2018. As of 2018, production was at 82.1 million tonnes (valued at USD 250.1 billion), and of this tonnage, around 9% (with a value of USD 35.4 billion) was reported to be from marine finfish production, which is predominantly in Asia, and mostly in East and Southeast Asia (De Silva & Phillips, 2007; FAO, 2020a).The most common form of marine fish farming in Asia is cage culture, and the most commonly farmed species include amberjack (Seriola spp.), cobia (Rachycentron canadum), pompano (Trachinotus ovatus) and different types of groupers (Epinephelus spp.) and snappers (Lutjanus spp.) (De Silva & Phillips, 2007). This type of aquaculture has been growing in Asia over the last decade due to an increasing demand for live fish in the restaurant trade in the People's Republic of China (PR China

“…One of the main problems and challenges in red snapper cultivation is disease control (Hussan et al, 2016;Oliveira et al, 2020). Diseases of red snapper could occur in water due to imbalances in the environment, host, and pathogenic organisms (Engering et al, 2013;Hussan et al, 2016;Oliveira et al, 2020). Parasitic infestation and infection might also be attributed to high fish density and inadequate nourishment in fish, as well as poor water and environmental quality (Yadollahi et al, 2013;Hussan et al, 2016).…”

“…In nature, red snappers might be susceptible to a number of diseases or parasites (Cable et al, 2017;Oliveira et al, 2020). In the culture environment, the parasites might even be present in far greater numbers and could be lethal to fish (Omeji et al, 2011).…”

“…In the culture environment, the parasites might even be present in far greater numbers and could be lethal to fish (Omeji et al, 2011). Marine fish, particularly the red snappers, are often exposed to parasitic helminth infestation (Montoya-Mendoza et al, 2014;Oliveira et al, 2020). Visual results indicated that the most prevalent ectoparasitic worm in the red snapper was Benedenia epinepheli, which was found on the fin and skin (Jithendran et al, 2005;Loh et al, 2020).…”

Marine fish, particularly the red snappers, are often exposed to helminth parasitic infestation. As a result of the parasitic infestation, the fish population, the fish weight, and the morphological changes in the fish are shrinking. The present research aimed to find out the intensity and predilection of the helminth ectoparasites over the infection of the red snapper (Lutjanus argentimaculatus) and employed the survey method for this purpose. The sampling was carried out by the purposive sampling technique. The sample obtained consisted of 30 fish, 20% of the total red snapper population of 150 fish reared in the floating net cages of Balai Besar Perikanan Budidaya Laut Lampung. The intensity of the fish infestation by a mixture of Haliotrema epinepheli and Benedenia epinepheli was 132.5 individuals/fish. Neobenedenia girellae and Haliotrema epinepheli infected fish with an intensity of 149.41 individuals/fish. The 66.7% of Benedenia epinepheli had a predilection for the dorsal fin, and 33.3% for the anal fin. In Neobenedenia girellae, 57.1% had a predilection for the body surface, 37.2% for the head surface, and 5.7% for the dorsal fin. In conclusion, all sampled fish were positively infected with helminth ectoparasites, including Neobenedenia girellae, Haliotrema epinepheli, and Benedenia epinepheli.
