Two strigeoid trematodes, Apatemon (Apatemon) gracilis (Rudolphi, 1819) and Diploetomum (Dolichorchis)galaxiae n. sp., which encyst in the freshwater fish Galaxias auratus Johnston in Lake Crescent, Tasmania. [PDF]
The metacercaria and adult of Apatemon (Apatemon) gracilis (Rudolphi) and Diplostomum (Dolichorchis) galaxiae n.sp. are described and figured. Metacercarial cysts of these species occur in different parts of the endemic fish Galaxias auratus: A. gracilis

Metacercarial Infection of Wild Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) from Brazil
Fingerlings of Oreochromis niloticus collected in an artificial urban lake from Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil, were evaluated for natural infection with trematodes. Morphological taxonomic identification of four fluke species was performed in O. niloticus examined, and the total prevalence of metacercariae was 60.7% (37/61).

Antagonistic Rewiring and Turnover Patterns in a Neotropical Fish–Parasite Metanetwork
ABSTRACT Integrating beta‐diversity and network analyses is an emerging approach for understanding the spatial structure of species communities. For instance, although the presence of hosts affects parasite species distribution, environmental factors can either restrict or promote the occurrence of certain parasite species by changing the abundance of ...
