New record of monogeneans (Platyhelminthes: Monogenea) infecting some marine fishes from the Peruvian coastal zone

open access: yesRevista Peruana de Biología, 2021
A parasitological survey searching monogeneans infesting marine fish was carried out during June 2018 and January 2020 from the coastal zone of Puerto Pizarro, Tumbes (northern Peru) and from the coastal zone of Chorrillos, Lima (central Peru). The gills,

Integrating curimba culture during the grow‐out phase of tambaqui affects overall productivity, water quality, and fish health

open access: yesJournal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract The efficiency of feed use in aquaculture may be improved by integrating the culture of extractive species into fed‐species systems. This study assessed the impact of including curimba (Prochilodus lineatus) in tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) production during the grow‐out phase in earthen ponds.

Infectious Diseases Management in Small‐Scale Freshwater Aquaculture in West Africa: Lessons for Low‐ and Middle‐Income Countries

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Infectious diseases are an increasing threat to food security, small‐scale livelihoods and the sustainability of aquaculture in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs). In sub‐Saharan Africa, aquaculture is expanding rapidly but production systems often remain fragile.

Plant‐Derived Treatments for Monogenean Parasites in Farmed Fish: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Monogeneans are among the most problematic ectoparasites in finfish aquaculture. Plant‐derived compounds have been widely explored as therapeutic agents, yet their efficacy and safety have not been quantitatively synthesized across studies. This study provides a meta‐analysis of plant‐based treatments against monogeneans, integrating 453 in ...

Low Ectoparasite Loads and Interactions With Cleaner Fish Among Amphiprion Anemonefish

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Interactions between ectoparasites, reef fishes and cleaner species are well documented; however, anemonefishes (Amphiprioninae) have been largely overlooked in this context. A hypothesis proposed as early as 1869 suggests that anemonefishes may experience reduced ectoparasite loads due to their symbiotic association with venomous host sea ...

Monogenean fauna of alien tilapias (Cichlidae) in south China

open access: yesParasite, 2019
Tilapias are important aquaculture fishes that have been introduced widely all over the world, often carrying their monogenean parasites with them. An extensive investigation on monogeneans of invasive tilapias was conducted in 19 natural water sources ...

Addressing a Flat‐Out Problem: Environmental DNA (eDNA) Exposes Silent Infestations of Acropora‐Eating Flatworms (Prosthiostomum acroporae) in Coral Aquaculture

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Captive coral aquaculture is increasingly important for both the aquarium trade and reef restoration, but production can be undermined by hard‐to‐detect pests such as the Acropora‐eating flatworm Prosthiostomum acroporae. We developed and validated a highly sensitive ddPCR assay capable of detecting P.

Looking for Greener Pastures: In Vitro Screening of Phytogenics for the Control of Sparicotyle chrysophrii in Gilthead Sea Bream

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, Volume 49, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The gill parasite Sparicotyle chrysophrii poses a significant threat to gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) aquaculture in the Mediterranean, causing considerable mortality and economic losses. As traditional chemotherapeutic treatments, like formalin, face growing regulatory restrictions, there is an urgent need for alternative control ...
