Nematode parasites of the characid fish Brycon hilarii from the River Juba, Mato Grosso, Brazil

Abstract: Specimens of the characid fish Brycon hilarii collected in dry and wet seasons in the River Juba, Tangará da Serra, State of Mato Grosso, Brazil, were surveyed for nematode parasites. Contracaecum sp. Type 1 and Type 2 larvae of Moravec, Kohn et Fernandes, 1993 were detected in the mesentery and liver, and Neocucullanus neocucullanus and Procamallanus (Spirocamallanus) inopinatus were observed in the intestine and pyloric caeca. 75 % of the nematodes were detected in the wet season. This is the first report o… Show more

“…Among Nematoda, P. (S.) inopinatus had the highest prevalence and parasite abundance indexes. Several studies recorded an increase in the prevalence of this species in other neotropical fish, both in natural environments and in cultivation systems (Andrade and Malta 2006;Saraiva et al 2006;Araújo et al 2009;Gomiero et al 2009). Procamallanus (S.) inopinatus was the most prevalent parasite species of Leporinus lacustris and L. friderici in the Nova Ponte Reservoir, in southeastern Brazil (Feltran et al 2004).…”

“…Os estudos de prevalência do S. inopinatus em peixes neotropicais apontam um aumento considerável deste parasita nos peixes coletados tanto em ambientes naturais como nos cultivados. O local mais comum de fixação no hospedeiro é a regiao anterior do intestino, mas também já fora encontrado nos cecos piloricos (Andrade e Malta, 2006;Saraiva et al, 2006;Gomes, 2007;Araújo et al, 2009;Gomiero et al, 2009).…”
