New host and distribution records for five species of Enterogyrus (Dactylogyridae: Ancyrocephalinae) from cichlid hosts in South Africa [PDF]
Abstract Three species of Cichlidae, Coptodon rendalli, Oreochromis mossambicus and Tilapia sparrmanii were screened for the presence of stomach monogeneans. Four localities across three provinces of South Africa (Limpopo, Northern Cape and North West) were sampled and a total of five Enterogyrus spp. were identified, E.

Non-lethal detection of DNA from Cichlidogyrus spp. (Monogenea, Ancyrocephalinae) in gill mucus of the Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus [PDF]
Infection of Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus by monogeneans of the genus Cichlidogyrus is harmful. Currently, diagnosis of this infection is based on invasive techniques and the identification of isolated parasites by their morphology. To facilitate diagnosis, we have developed a non-lethal polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test for detection of ...

Haliotrema (Monogenea: Ancyrocephalinae) from Ostraciid Fishes in Guadeloupe, West Indies
Six sympatric species of Haliotrema Johnston and Tiegs, 1922 are described from ostraciid fishes in Guadeloupe, West Indies. All have a basic cone-shaped cirrus, but characteristics of that and other terminal genitalia plus those of anchors can differentiate them: H. guadeloupensis sp. n. from Lactophrys triqueter (typehost) and L.
