Abstract:AbsctractEustrongylides spp. nematodes have birds as final hosts and uses other vertebrates as intermediate/paratenic host (fish, amphibians and reptiles) and have zoonotic potential. In amphibians, the larvae may be located in the subcutaneous tissues, liver and mesentery, between the muscle fibres, especially in the lower limbs. Rhinella marina, which is widely observed in Brazil, has exhibited complex diversity in its helminth fauna, reflecting the unique habitat of the Amazon biome. For the first time, thi… Show more
“…Occurrence of E. excisus in fi sh is an important epidemiological issue in many countries, including countries of Europe, Brazil, USA, Middle East, Russia and Ukraine (Lichtenfels, 1985;Pozooki, 2007;Soylu, 2013;Yesipova, 2013;Melo, 2015;Fedorov, 2014;Noei, 2015;Branciari, 2016). Overall, Eustrongylides infection remains relatively common in Europe and is on a rise in some areas.…”

“…It was observed by a number of scientists that nematodes E. excisus may use some amphibians and reptiles as paratenic hosts, particularly marsh frog (Pelophylax ridibundus Pallas, 1771), cane toad (Rhinella marina Linnaeus, 1758), dice snake (Natrix tesselata Laurenti, 1768 ) (Karmanova, 1968;Melo, 2015;Gagut, 2015).…”

“…excius is widespread in the world. Cases of infection with E. excisus were reported in Serbia, Romania, Turkey, Brazil, the USA, Italy, Iran, Azerbeidjan, Czech Republic, Russia and Ukraine (Lichtenfels et al, 1985;Pozooki, 2007;Soylu, 2013;Yesipova, 2013;Melo, 2015;Fedorov, 2014;Noei, 2015;Branciari, 2016).…”
The article describes occurrence and distribution of Eustrongylides trematodes in fish in the waters of the Dnipro-Buh estuary and the delta of Dnipro River in Mykolaiv and Kherson Region. Study was conducted in 2015–2016. This parasite was found in natural water reservoirs in Mykolaiv and Kherson region in following fish species: Sander lucioperca (Linnaeus, 1758), Perca fluviatilis (Linnaeus, 1758) and Esox lucius (Linnaeus, 1758). Ichtyopathological investigation of 346 fishes was conducted. Parasites were observed in abdominal cavity, muscle tissue, wall of gastro-intestinal tract, gonads and hepatopancreas. P. fluviatilis was the most affected species, prevalence of infection was 85.1 %. Less infected were S. lucioperca and E. lucius, with the prevalence of infection 58.1 % and 58.9 % respectively. Mean prevalence of infection of predatory fish in studied reservoirs was 70.5 %. The intensity of infection was the highest in perch (1–14 nematodes per fish). The lowest intensity of infection was found in pike-perch (1–9 nematodes per fish).

“…As aves piscívoras atuam como hospedeiros definitivos desse gênero de parasita, portanto a infecção tem maior importância para socós, garças, cormorões, entre outras aves que se alimentam de peixes e anfíbios (MELO, et al 2016 (ATKINSON et al, 2008).…”
