Abstract: Neobenedenia melleni (MacCallum, 1927) (Monogenea) is a widespread pathogen in marine teleost cultures all over the world. The present paper reports this parasite species in farmed cobia (Rachycentron canadum) in Brazil, for the first time. Some comments on preventive actions for avoiding the disease are made.Keywords: Mariculture, pathogens, ectoparasites.

“…and Neobenedenia sp. have been reported in other fish species (NOWAK, 2007;SANCHES, 2008;KERBER et al, 2011;HIRAYAMA et al, 2009 ), and monogeneans are one of the most important parasites affecting cobia cultivation (KERBER et al, 2011). During the growth phase of Lates calcarifer, this ectoparasite was responsible for the mortality of 200,000 fish in Australia (DEVENEY et al, 2001).…”
