Fish blood flukes (Digenea: Aporocotylidae) from marine fishes of South Africa, including proposal of a new genus

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife
Novel records of marine fish-infecting blood flukes (Aporocotylidae Odhner, 1912) were obtained from several locations across the South African coastline. These constitute the first records of aporocotylid flukes from the region.

A new species of Rhipidocotyle Diesing, 1858 (Trematoda: Bucephalidae) infecting leerfish, Lichia amia (L.) (Teleostei: Carangidae), and the first complete life-cycle for a marine trematode from Southern Africa

Parasitology
We present the first elucidated marine trematode life-cycle for southern Africa, involving intermediate and definitive hosts from the southwestern Indian Ocean, through southern South Africa and to the southeastern Atlantic Ocean in Namibia.

Sponges as feeding resource for the white seabream Diplodus sargus (Linnaeus, 1758) from the Mediterranean Sea

The European Zoological Journal
Sponges play a significant role in many marine environments. In tropical regions, the relationship between Porifera and spongivorous organisms, including fish, has been extensively studied.
