Molecular characterization of muscle-parasitizing didymozoids in marine fishes

Acta Parasitologica, 2014
AbstractClassification and identification of muscle-parasitizing didymozoids found in marine fish is difficult because of their novel parasitism and morphology. Recent sequence analysis has helped, but only seven sequences are available. Therefore, the usefulness of molecular methods for differentiation of muscle-parasitizing didymozoids, as well as ...

First elucidation of a didymozoid life cycle: Saccularina magnacetabula n. gen. n. sp. infecting an arcid bivalve

International Journal for Parasitology, 2022
The first first-intermediate host for a species of Didymozoidae (Trematoda: Hemiuroidea), a bivalve of the family Arcidae, is identified using multi-loci molecular data. First intermediate, (likely) third intermediate, and adult stages of a new didymozoid taxon (Saccularina magnacetabula n. gen. n.

Didymozoids in Muscle of Atlantic Chub Mackerel (Scomber colias)

Acta Parasitologica, 2019
Digenean trematodes of the family Didymozoidae are tissue parasites that are particularly common in scombrid fish. These parasites can reduce the commercial value of fish, especially the ones occurring in the muscle.In the present study and for the first time, we report the occurrence of didymozoids in muscle tissue of Atlantic chub mackerel (Scomber ...

Five new didymozoid trematodes (Platyhelminthes, Digenea) from Australian platycephalid fishes

Zoologica Scripta, 1994
Five new didymozoid trematodes are described from two species of platycephalid fish collected in Moreton Bay. Australia. Indodidymozoon moretonensis sp. n. from the buccal cavity and branchial arches and 1. suttiei sp. n. from the flesh are described from Platycephalus fuscus. Indodidymozoon lesteri sp. n. from the belly skin. I. pearsoni sp. n.

Molecular characterization of muscle-parasitizing didymozoid from a chub mackerel, Scomber japonicus

Acta Parasitologica, 2015
AbstractDidymozoids found in the muscles of marine fish are almost always damaged because they are usually found after being sliced. Therefore, identifying muscle-parasitizing didymozoids is difficult because of the difficulty in collecting non-damaged worms and observing their organs as key points for morphological identification.

A survey of didymozoid trematodes of the barracuda Sphyraena obtusata from Kuwait Bay

International Journal for Parasitology, 1993
Examination of 120 yellow-finned barracudas, Sphyraena obtusata, from Kuwait Bay revealed 8 species of didymozoid trematodes encapsulated in pairs in the tissues. Four species of the didymozoids, Allodidymozoon operculare, Didymocylindrus sp., Didymocystis sp., and Didymocystoides sp., were found in the head region, 3 species, Didymozoon tetragynae ...

Descriptions of Two New Didymozoids from the Barracuda Sphyraena obtusata in Kuwait Bay

The Journal of Parasitology, 1995
Two new species of didymozoid trematodes, belonging to the subfamily Didymozoinae (Ishii, 1935), genus Allodidymozoon Yamaguti, 1959, are described from the barracuda Sphyraena obtusata caught in Kuwait Bay. Allodidymozoon pharyngi n. sp. from cysts in the pharyngeal muscles is distinguished from its congeners by the posteriorly extended testes ...

Host-Parasite Relations in Some Didymozoid Trematodes

The Journal of Parasitology, 1980
Adult Neometadidymozoon helicis and Nematobothrium spinneri were found coiled in host connective tissue without any capsule wall of parasite origin. Eggs of N. helicis and Didymozoon brevi- colle passed through the gut of a teleost without harm, suggesting predation as a possible mechanism for the release of eggs in these species.
