Molecular communication between the monogenea and fish immune system.

Fish and Shellfish Immunology, 2020
Monogeneans parasitise mainly the outer structures of fish, such as the gills, fins, and skin, that is, tissues covered with a mucous layer. While attached by sclerotised structures to host's surface, monogeneans feed on its blood or epidermal cells and ...

The Larvae of Monogenea (Platyhelminthes)

1999
There has been no comprehensive review of the infective larval stage (oncomiracidium) in the direct life-cycle of monogeneans since Llewellyn. In the last 30 years, knowledge of the general anatomy and morphology of oncomiracidia has increased significantly as has information on swimming behaviour and egg-hatching strategies that may enhance chances of

Occurrence of dactylogyrid and gyrodactylid Monogenea on common carp, Cyprinus carpio, in the Southern Caspian Basin.

Parasitology international, 2019
In this study, we genetically characterised Monogenea found on the gill of common carp in Iran. In total, 5603 parasites were recovered from 112 fish. The parasites were first identified morphologically as Dactylogyrus extensus, D.

A PROPOSED SYSTEM OF ANATOMY FOR FRESHWATER MONOGENEA

Canadian Journal of Zoology, 1967
A lack of standardized anatomical terms for use in morphological descriptions of monogenetic trematodes has resulted in excessive confusion and needless synonymy. The present proposed systems of terminology will hopefully contribute toward more meaningful descriptions in future studies.

A new species of Cacatuocotyle (Monogenea, Dactylogyridae) parasitizing Astyanax spp. (Characiformes, Characidae) from Brazil, including molecular data and a key to species identification

Acta Parasitologica, 2018
The present study describes Cacatuocotyle papilionis n. sp. (Monogenea, Dactylogyridae) from the skin of the characid fishes Astyanax lacustris (Lütken, 1875) (=Astyanax altiparanae Garutti & Britski, 2000) and Astyanax fasciatus (Cuvier, 1819 ...

Oculotrema hippopotami (Trematoda: Monogenea) in Uganda

Nature, 1965
Oculotrema hippopotami was described by Stunkard1 from material labelled ‘from the eye of a hippopotamus’, and presumably collected by A. Looss from a Nile hippopotamus in the zoological gardens, Cairo. This hippopotamus must have been taken to Cairo from the Sudan, or possibly from Uganda, because Hippopotamus amphibius has been absent from the River ...

Evolutionary expansion of the Monogenea

International Journal for Parasitology, 1994
The evolutionary expansion of the monogeneans has taken place in parallel with the diversification of the fish-like vertebrates. In this article the main trends in monogenean evolution are traced from a hypothetical skin-parasitic ancestor on early vertebrates.

Studies on the Polystomatidae (Monogenea) in Australia [PDF]

, 2023
The taxonomy and biology of the Polystomatidae of Australian hosts was studied. One species of polystomatid was found in the lungfish, nine species in freshwater turtles, and two species in frogs. The validity of characters used in taxonomy of the Polystomatidae is reviewed and assessed.

A Review of Neoheterocotyle (Monogenea: Monocotylidae)

The Journal of Parasitology, 1994
The monocotylid genus Neoheterocotyle Hargis, 1955 is reviewed and the type species N. inpristi Hargis, 1955 is redescribed and illustrated. Neoheterocotyle ruggierii Cheung and Nigrelli, 1983 is synonymized with N. inpristi. Horricauda Tripathi, 1959 is synonymized with Neoheterocotyle, and the species previously assigned to Horricauda are transferred
