Helminth Parasites of Clarias gariepinus (Clariidae) in Lekki Lagoon, Lagos, Nigeria

Revista de Biología Tropical, 2014
A total of 360 randomly selected specimens of Clarias gariepinus (Clariidae) recovered from Lekki Lagoon were examined for intestinal helminth parasites. Parasite prevalence and worm burden were low; 17 (4.72%) of the specimens examined were infected with gastrointestinal helminths. The helminth worms recovered include, three cestodes Polyonchobothrium

Reproductive plasticity and environmental tolerance of invasive African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) in a tropical Brazilian river

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Invasive alien species (IAS) pose a significant threat to biodiversity, particularly when endowed with high ecological and reproductive plasticity. The African catfish, Clarias gariepinus, is one such species, widely recognized for its ability to colonize and establish in diverse tropical ecosystems.

Trophic Diversity in Aquatic Food Webs Along a Tropical Coastal River Continuum in West‐Central Africa

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT In the wet Afrotropics, information on trophic diversity and resource use in freshwaters is extremely limited. Here we used stable isotope ratios (δ13C, δ15N) from food webs along the continuum of a coastal river in the Republic of the Congo to examine seasonal and spatial patterns of trophic diversity.
