This report describes a severe outbreak of the gill fluke Centrocestus formosanus in farm-raised platies Xiphophorus maculatus in Brazil, with mortality rate approaching 95%. Typical clinical signs of infection were observed, with microscopic examinations of fresh gills revealing multiple cysts containing a once-folded metacercaria with an X-shaped ...

A description is given of cercarial chaetotaxy of two Centrocestinae (Heterophyidae, Opisthorchioidea) from Malaysia: Centrocestus formosanus and Centrocestus sp.--Comparison with cercarial chaetotaxy of taxonomically related groups indicates that 1. The chaetotaxy of the Centrocestinae agrees with that of other Opisthorchioidea, 2.

Abstract We examined the gills of wild fish collected from central Texas for Centrocestus formosanus metacercariae to determine whether this temperature-restricted parasite had invaded the thermally dynamic Guadalupe River via an introduced population in its thermally stable tributary, the Comal River.

Centrocestus formosanus is an intestinal foodborne trematode with medical and veterinary importance that remains with the pathological and immunological aspects of the infection in definitive host poorly studied. In the present study, we evaluated the effects of pharmacological immunosuppression by glucocorticoids in experimental centrocestiasis.

Abstract Centrocestus formosanus, an exotic digenetic trematode that was recently found infecting wild fish in Texas, was evaluated to determine whether it could infect four propagated warmwater fish species. Channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus, sunshine bass (the hybrid of female white bass Morone chrysops and male striped bass Morone saxatilis ...

Abstract The taxonomy, distributional history, present occurrence, life cycle, morphology of developmental stages and epizootiology of the heterophyid trematode Centrocestus formosanus (Nishigori, 1924) in Mexico are reviewed. This parasite was most likely introduced to Mexico with the importation of the first intermediate host, the thiarid snail ...

The gill parasite Centrocestus formosanus (Trematoda: Heterophyidae) is an exotic parasite of concern in Texas because it has been shown to infect multiple threatened and endangered fish species. The purpose of this study was to determine if C. formosanus could present a threat to larval anurans, as well as threatened neotenic salamanders endemic to ...

Centrocestus formosanus is a small, fish-borne zoonotic trematode belonging to the family Heterophyidae. It causes financial losses in the aquaculture industry. In this research, we aimed to study the prevalence of metacercariae among wild tilapia fish, histopathology, and molecular characterization of Centrocestus formosanus using ITS-2 gene PCR.

ABSTRACTThe minute intestinal trematode Centrocestus formosanus is a major problem that can be found in the gills of various fish species. This parasite can destroy the gill structure of fish, leading to increased fish morbidity and mortality rates. In this study, loop‐mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) based on the internal transcript spacer 1 ...

The metacercariae of Centrocestus formosanus (Nishigori 1924) occur on the gills of freshwater fishes in association with blood vessels. The microecology of the metacercariae on the gills of the cyprinid fish Aplocheilus panchax (Ham. & Buch.) was investigated. The cysts showed a preference for anterior gills and for the dorsal section of each gill.
