Parasites and non-fish predators of tilapia with particular reference to the sustainable management of fisheries of Lake Kainji Nigeria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The fisheries of Lake Kainji, Nigeria, experienced a boom year following impoundment, then decline post impoundment and now is in a period of stabilisation of the fish resources. Several reasons have been advanced on factors responsible for these changes,

Two new species of entobdelline skin parasites (Monogenea, Capsalidae) from the blotched fantail ray, Taeniura meyeni, in the Pacific Ocean, with comments on spermatophores and the male copulatory apparatus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We made a comparative anatomical study of entobdelline monogenean skin parasites from the blotched fantail ray, Taeniura meyeni (= T. melanospila) from public aquaria and fish-holding facilities distributed widely across the western Pacific Ocean.

Monogenean Sparicotyle chrysophrii: The major pathogen of the Mediterranean gilthead seabream aquaculture

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 16, Issue 1, Page 287-308, January 2024.
Sparicotylosis has been present in Mediterranean aquaculture of the gilthead seabream for the past 25 years, yet disease management and treatments are not effective. This is further jeopardised by global warming and resistance of Sparicotyle chrysophrii to available anthelminthic compounds.

In Vivo Challenge Trials with Dietary Antiparasitics Reveal New Insights into the Practical Use of Fenbendazole against Sparicotyle chrysophrii (Monogenea) Infection in Sparus aurata (Teleostei)

open access: yesAquaculture Research, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
The microcotylid Sparicotyle chrysophrii is one of the most harmful parasites for the aquaculture of the gilthead seabream Sparus aurata, for which effective treatments are needed. The efficacy of dietary praziquantel (PZQ, 30–50 mg kg body weight−1 day−1), emamectin benzoate (EMB, 0.015–0.050 mg kg BW−1 day−1), and fenbendazole (FBZ, 40–75 mg kg BW−1 ...

Spermiogenesis and spermatozoon ultrastructure in basal polyopisthocotylean monogeneans, Hexabothriidae and Chimaericolidae, and their significance for the phylogeny of the Monogenea

open access: yesParasite, 2018
Sperm ultrastructure provides morphological characters useful for understanding phylogeny; no study was available for two basal branches of the Polyopisthocotylea, the Chimaericolidea and Diclybothriidea.

Relationship between Water Quality Parameters and Parasite Infestation in Farmed Oreochromis niloticus in Selected Rift Valley Counties, Kenya

open access: yesAquaculture Research, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Globally, parasitic infections hinder aquaculture productivity and sustainability. Improper water quality parameters reduce fish immunity, make them susceptible to parasites, and enhance parasitic proliferation in culture systems. Subsequently, this study aimed to determine the prevalence and intensity of ecto‐ and endo‐parasite infesting Oreochromis ...
