A total of 15 trematode species (in 12 families) and 5 acanthocephalan species (in four families) was recorded. Almost all parasites are briefly described and illustrated and problems concerning their morphology, taxonomy, hosts and geographical distribution are discussed. Some findings represent new host and geographical records. New acanthocephalan genus Quadrihexaspiron gen. n. (Neoechinorhynchidae) is erected to accommodate two species from China, Quadrihexaspiron spinibarbi (Yu et Wang, 1997) comb. n. (type species) and Quadrihexaspiron parabramis (Yin et Wu, 1984) comb. n., originally placed in Hexaspiron Dollfus et Golvan, 1956; Hexaspiron is recognised as a genus belonging to Quadrigyridae. The trematode species Orientocreadium elegans Besprozvannykh, Ermolenko et Deveney, 2009 is considered to be possibly identical with Orientocreadium pseudobagri Yamaguti, 1934, whereas the morphologically similar acanthocephalan species Micracanthorhynchina dakusuiensis (Harada, 1938) and Micracanthorhynchina brevelemniscus Lisitsyna, Barčák, Orosová, Fan et Oros, 2023 may prove to be conspecific with Micracanthorhynchina motomurai (Harada, 1935). A re-examination of the type specimens of Neoechinorhynchus afghanus Moravec et Amin, 1978 (Acanthocephala), a parasite of fishes in Afghanistan, revealed the presence of minute trunk spines in this species and, consequently, it is transferred to the genus Quadrigyrus Van Cleave, 1929 (Quadrigyridae) as Quadrigyrus afghanus (Moravec et Amin, 1978) comb. n.","PeriodicalId":55154,"journal":{"name":"Folia Parasitologica","volume":"72 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143016788","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The overall prevalence of the parasite was found to be 88% (94 fish infected/106 fish examined). A higher prevalence was found in C. ornata (96%), while a higher intensity was noted for N. notopterus (117 parasites/fish). The most important morphological characters were the presence of cephalic and cuticular structures, precloacal ridges, and genital papillae. Specimens were genetically characterised using cox1 mtDNA. Morphological characteristics were most similar to Spinitectus petterae Boomker, 1993 from Clarias gariepinus (Burchell) in Africa, while the genetic data were dissimilar to all available data for the genus.

Neospora caninum Dubey, Carpenter, Speer, Topper et Uggla, 1988 is associated with foetal loss, neurological disease and abortion in equids. No information was available regarding equine N. caninum infection among equids in Iraq. Thus, the aim of this study was to determine the prevalence rate of N. caninum in equines by using a competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (c-ELISA). A total of 329 blood samples randomly selected from equines, comprising 268 horses and 61 donkeys were examined. The seroprevalence rate of N. caninum was determined as 46% (28/61) for donkeys and 24% (64/268) for horses. The prevalence of N. caninum indicated a significantly higher risk of infection in donkeys compared to horses (P < 0.001). However, the odds of N. caninum infection in draught equids were 8.2 times greater than other equids with a significant difference (P < 0.001). The current study revealed no significant differences in the prevalence of N. caninum across various genders, breeds, clinical statuses, disease histories and among equids that had contact with dogs. While outdoor feeding and mixed (grazing), showed a significant difference (P = 0.003) and (P = 0.75), respectively, in the presence of antibodies against N. caninum compared to indoor feeding (stable). Moreover, the odds of infection in equids with a history of late abortion were 4.8 times higher than those without such a history of abortion (2.20-10.56) with statistical significance (P < 0.001).","PeriodicalId":55154,"journal":{"name":"Folia Parasitologica","volume":"71 ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142781930","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous taxonomic studies, based solely on morphology and inconsistently fixed specimens, concluded that all salmoniform fish, including whitefish, are parasitised by a single euryxenous and highly polymorphic species, Proteocephalus longicollis (Zeder, 1800). However, recent molecular phylogenetic analyses have revealed the existence of several species specific to individual genera or even species of salmoniform fish. In this study, Proteocephalus fallax La Rue, 1911 is redescribed based on newly collected and genetically characterised specimens from several Coregonus species in Switzerland, the type locality of the species, and in Norway. This cestode was previously synonymised with P. exiguus La Rue, 1911, a parasite of whitefish in North America, but the two species are not closely related. Proteocephalus fallax differs from P. exiguus in its larger body size, wider proglottids, shorter cirrus sac and broader scolex.

However, they are sometimes incriminated in causing post-mortem myoliquefaction or unsightly cyst formation in commercial fish. Despite the great commercial impacts of multivalvulidan infection, the biodiversity, host range and epidemiology of multivalvulidan species remain to be explored further, including infection of alternative annelid hosts. Therefore, this study aimed to identify multivalvulidan species and their host and/or distribution records in commercial fishes in China. Multivalvulidan infection was detected in ten commercial fish species of seven families from the South and East China Seas (Northwest Pacific Ocean) and the Eastern Central Atlantic Ocean (an imported Dagetichthys lusitanicus [de Brito Capello]). Based on morphological and molecular-genetic analyses of their small and large subunit of ribosomal RNA genes, five new host and/or geographical distribution records for five fish species are presented, and three new species in five fish species are described, namely Kudoa neoscomberomori sp. n. in Scomberomorus commerson (Lacépède); Kudoa pilosa sp. n. in Helicolenus hilgendorfi (Döderlein) (type host) and Sebastiscus tertius (Barsukov et Chen); and Kudoa tumidisporica sp. n. in Photopectoralis bindus (Valenciennes) (type host) and Nuchequula nuchalis (Temminck et Schlegel).
