Helminthological examination of specimens of the freshwater fishes Bryconamericus iheringi Boulenger, 1887 (Characidae) and Jenynsia multidentata (Jenyns, 1842) (Anablepidae), collected from Medina River, Province of Tucuman, Argentina, revealed the presence of 2 species of parasitic nematodes, Rhabdochona fabianae n. sp. and Rhabdochona acuminata (Molin, 1860) (Rhabdochonidae). Rhabdochona fabianae n. sp. was characterized by the presence of 16 anterior teeth in the prostom and filamented eggs in females. Rhabdochona acuminata was recorded for the first time in the north of Argentina. 相似文献

Juvenile freshwater parasitic nematodes Rhabdochona denudata honshuensis Moravec and Nagasawa, 1989 and Rhabdochona coronacauda Belouss, 1965 (Spirurida: Thelazioidea: Rhabdochonidae) were found in mayfly nymphs collected in a mountain stream in Japan. Considering the relative density of mayfly nymphs, nematode prevalence, and intensity of parasitism, Ephemera strigata Eaton and Potamanthus formosus Ulmer (Ephemeroptera: Ephemeridae) are frequent natural intermediate hosts for R. d. honshuensis in this locality. The intermediate host of R. coronacauda also is the E. strigata nymph. 相似文献

Data on the seasonal occurrence and maturation of Rhabdochona gnedini Skrjabin, 1946 in its definitive host, the barbel Barbus bocagei, from the Sousa River, in northern Portugal, are presented. Monthly samples were taken from November, 1998 to October, 1999. A total of 178 fish specimens were inspected. R. gnedini occurred with high prevalences during whole year, attaining the highest values of intensity in summer (overall prevalence and mean intensity 85% and 31, respectively). A clear annual cycle of maturation was observed; females with mature eggs occurred in spring and summer. Unidentified Rhabdochona larvae were recorded from the trichopteran larvae Hydropsyche sp. (prevalence and intensity 29% and one to 34, respectively). These larvae are presumptive intermediate host for R. gnedini. 相似文献

An examination of a sample of benthic invertebrates collected from the Upper San Marcos River in southwestern Texas, USA in September 1999 revealed that the nymph of the ephemeropteran Tricorythodes curvatus served as natural intermediate host of the nematode Rhabdochona kidderi texensis (Nematoda: Rhabdochonidae), an intestinal parasite mainly of the Rio Grande perch (Cichlasoma cyanoguttatum) in this locality; the prevalence of the parasite's third- and fourth-stage larvae in mayflies was 6.8% with the intensity of 1-2 larvae per nymph. Live R. kidderi texensis eggs collected from nematodes recovered from C. cyanoguttatum in Texas were transported to the Czech Republic, where they were used to experimentally infect nymphs of the palaearctic mayfly species Paraleptophlebia submarginata; the development of infective third- and fourth-stage larvae in this experimental intermediate host was completed after approximately 10 days at 19 degrees C. Infected nymphs were fed to aquarium-reared fishes, four Cichlasoma nigrofasciatum and one Oreochromis niloticus, of which only three of the former became infected. The last (fourth) moult of a male nematode was observed in C. nigrofasciatum 23 days p.i. and adult males and gravid females with not fully mature (non-embryonated) eggs in uteri on days 40 and 51 p.i. The prepatent period of R. kidderi texensis is approximately two months. 相似文献

A new anisakid nematode, Hysterothylacium patagonense n. sp., is described from the intestine of the temperate bass Percichthys trucha (Cuvier & Valenciennes), a freshwater fish from Lake Aluminé, Patagonia, Argentina. It is characterised mainly by the absence of lateral alae, the length ratio of the caecum and ventricular appendix (1:0.9–1.8), the length of the spicules (0.952–1.292 mm) and the presence of minute spines on the tip of the tail. In the same locality and in Lake Huechulafquen, advanced third-stage and fourth-stage larvae of this parasite were also recorded from the digestive tract of the introduced salmonids, Salvelinus fontinalis (Mitchell), Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum) and Salmo trutta L. This is the second Hysterothylacium species described from freshwater fishes in South America. A key to Hysterothylacium species parasitising American freshwater fishes is provided. 相似文献

During a parasitological survey of Patagonian freshwater fishes, specimens of a new species of Monogenea were collected from the gills of Percichthys trucha (Perciformes: Percichthyidae). This species is described as the only member of a newly proposed genus of Ancyrocephalinae. Duplaccessorius n. gen. (Dactylogyridae, Ancyrocephalinae) is characterized by hooks with 2 subunits, gonads in tandem, a coiled male copulatory organ with counterclockwise rings, an accessory piece formed by 2 distinct parts, and a nonsclerotized sinistrolateral vagina with a funnel shape vestibule. Duplaccessorius andinus n. sp. infects the gills of P. trucha (Cuvier and Valenciennes, 1840) from Andean Patagonian lakes, being the first species of Ancyrocephalinae described from a South American percichthyid. 相似文献

Movement of the South American perch Percichthys trucha (Perciformes: Percichthyidae) was studied in a set of interconnected mountain lakes in northern Patagonia. Fish were tracked using attached acoustic tags and a fixed hydrophone array over two seasons, corresponding to the spawning (1999) and prespawning periods (2000). Percichthys trucha was found to move throughout the lake system, and to use a small, shallow, connected lake as a principal spawning area. In addition, detailed behavioural information was obtained for the spawning period. Most fish spent the initial 2 weeks descending from the littoral zone to depths of 5–8 m, presumably while feeding. Fish changed depth slowly, spending several days at each depth, and moving throughout the lake. A few days prior to the full moon, there was a change in behaviour thought to be associated with spawning, where the fish moved toward the vegetated littoral areas. Marked daily behaviour also began at this time, with movement to particular near-shore locations at dusk, and return to slightly greater depths offshore at or before dawn. Study of the behaviour of P. trucha during the breeding season has highlighted the conservation significance of the main locations within the lake system. 相似文献

We describe the intermediate and definitive hosts of the fish nematodes Rhabdochona coronacauda and R. denudata honshuensis and discuss the relationships between parasitism and the feeding habitats of their intermediate hosts. We found that the principal intermediate hosts of the two nematodes were filter-feeding mayflies of the genera Ephemera, Photamanthus and Isonychia. Ephemera strigata seemed to be the most important intermediate host of these nematodes. Adult R. coronacauda were found mainly in Hemibarbus longirostris and Rhinogobius flumineus, which are benthic fishes that feed on benthic aquatic insects, including E. strigata. For R. coronacauda, therefore, the feeding habits of the definitive hosts facilitate host alternation by this species. However, adult R. denudata honshuensis were found in cyprinids. In particular, Zacco temmincki was the principal natural definitive host in our study area. Since Z. temmincki is a swimming predator, E. strigata nymphs that burrow in the substrate are not the main prey of this species. This indicates that the transmission of R. denudata honshuensis hardly occurs from E. strigata nymph to Z. temmincki, suggesting another, unknown transmission route. 相似文献

In the present study, 81 specimens of Capoeta capoeta gracilis (Keyserling, 1861) were collected from the Shiroud River, the Caspian drainage basin, Iran in June and October 2007. The fish were examined for infection with the nematode Rhabdochona fortunatowi (Dinnik, 1933). Nematodes were counted and sexed, then the sex ratio and intestinal site preference of the R. fortunatowi individuals and the intersexual interactions of the parasites were investigated. Significant differences were observed in the prevalence and intensity of infection in relation to host size and sampling season, but not host sex. Parasite burden (mean intensity) was higher in October than in June and the results revealed a decrease in female-to-male sex ratio (FMR) in the fish in October compared to the ones in June. In other words, as the mean intensity of infection of R. fortunatowi increases, the proportion of male worms increases, too. The female-biased sex ratio in June was replaced by a male-biased one in October. Nematode distribution rose to a significant peak in the mid-region of the fish intestine relative to the anterior and posterior parts. Some changes in the distribution of male and female worms in different parts of the host intestine were also observed during June and October. Density-dependent selection and intersexual competition seem to be the main factors driving such a shift in the sex ratio and its variation in different parts of the host intestine. 相似文献

Aim The phylogeography of Rhabdochona lichtenfelsi, a nematode parasite specific to endemic goodeids in Mexico, is used to infer the biogeographical history of fragmentation and recent evolution of the Mesa Central drainages. Geological history of the west‐central region of Mexico suggests that extant freshwater basins are the result of different vicariant events that fragmented ancient watercourses and lakes within the Mesa Central. Location Major freshwater river basins of the Mesa Central, Mexico: Ameca, Cotija, Lerma, Rio Verde, Panuco, and lakes Cuitzeo and Zacapu. Methods Haplotype diversity and phylogeographical structure of 10 populations of R. lichtenfelsi, sampled from the complete range of this species, were analysed with partial sequences of cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (456 bp). Analyses performed included phylogenetic tree estimation methods (neighbour‐joining, maximum parsimony and maximum likelihood), genetic diversity, distance and structure estimates, and nested clade analysis. Results High overall haplotype diversity, unique haplotypes, and strongly structured populations were found in the basins sampled. Three phylogenetically and demographically identifiable clades were recovered. These clades fit an isolation‐by‐distance model. Significant population expansion was observed for two clades and for the entire population. Time of divergence was estimated as 1.0 and 0.84 Ma for the different clades. Main conclusions The distribution of R. lichtenfelsi haplotypes does not correspond to the present distribution of the basins of Mesa Central, but instead reflects the distribution of those basins during a recent geological period (Pleistocene). While our current knowledge of the evolution and geographical relationships of the Mesa Central basins comes from studies of freshwater fish encompassing a more ancient history, our results suggest that, during the past million years, old basins and connections existed where today isolated freshwater bodies stand, thus unravelling a novel biogeographical history for the Mesa Central of Mexico. 相似文献

Two new nematode species, Philometra gymnosardae n. sp. (Philometridae) and Heptochona maldivensis n. sp. (Rhabdochonidae), are described from the dogtooth tuna Gymnosarda unicolor (Rüppell) (Scombridae, Perciformes) from the Indian Ocean off the Maldive Islands (Republic of Maldives). The former species is characterized mainly by unequal, conspicuously long (859 and 435 microm) spicules; the structure of the caudal end in the male (found in the host's stomach); by markedly large, oval cephalic papillae (n = 8) of the outer circle; the presence of a small, anterior bulb on the very long esophagus; and 2 large caudal projections in the gravid female (parasitic in the host's body cavity). This is the first-known species of Philometra whose gravid females are present in the body cavity of tuna fishes. Heptochona maldivensis resembles H. stromatei but differs mainly in the position of deirids, shape of the muscular esophagus, character of postanal papillae, length of the left spicule (648 microm), much larger body measurements, location in the host (stomach), and the host type. Rhabdochona parastromatei Bilqees, 1971, is synonymized with H. stromatei, whereas Heptochona sindica Akram and Pie de Imprenta, 1988, and H. rivdica Akram, 1988, are invalid names. Heptochona varmai is transferred to another genus as Rhabdochona varmai (Gupta and Masoodi, 1990) n. comb. Rhabdochona varmai, Heptochona schmidtii Arya, 1991, and Rhabdochona marina Lakshmi and Sudha, 1999, are considered species inquirendae. 相似文献

Climate control on ancestral population dynamics: insight from Patagonian fish phylogeography 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1

Changes in lake and stream habitats during the growth and retreat of Pleistocene glaciers repeatedly altered the spatial distributions and population sizes of the aquatic fauna of the southern Andes. Here, we use variation in mtDNA control region sequences to infer the temporal dynamics of two species of southern Andean fish during the past few million years. At least five important climate events were associated with major demographic changes: (i) the widespread glaciations of the mid-Pliocene (c. 3.5 Ma); (ii) the largest Patagonian glaciation (1.1 Ma); (iii) the coldest Pleistocene glaciation as indicated by stacked marine delta(18)O (c. 0.7 Ma); (iv) the last southern Patagonian glaciation to reach the Atlantic coast (180 ka); and (v) the last glacial maximum (LGM, 23-25,000 years ago). The colder-water inhabitant, Galaxias platei, underwent a strong bottleneck during the LGM and its haplotype diversity coalesces c. 0.7 Ma. In contrast, the more warm-adapted and widely distributed Percichthys trucha showed continuous growth through the last two glacial cycles but went through an important bottleneck c. 180,000 years ago, at which time populations east of the Andes may have been eliminated. Haplotype diversity of the most divergent P. trucha populations, found west of the Andes, coalesces c. 3.2 Ma. The demographic timelines obtained for the two species thus illustrate the continent-wide response of aquatic life in Patagonia to climate change during the Pleistocene, but also show how differing ecological traits and distributions led to distinctive responses. 相似文献

From October 1985 until July 1987, the seasonal dynamics of Rhabdochona denudata in its principal definitive host, the chub (Leuciscus cephalus), was studied in the Rokytná River (the Danube basin), Czechoslovakia. Prevalence (overall prevalence 77%) and intensity of infection (1-59 nematodes per fish) in the fish were high all year, with both abiotic and biotic factors influencing the fluctuations. Maximum values of prevalence (82-87%) were found in the fish with body length exceeding 20 cm; the mean intensity was highest in the size-group of fish 20-25 cm long, whereas its values gradually decreased in larger fish, this being due to the choice of food by fish of different size-groups. In contrast to the situation in other localities, an annual maturation cycle was not evident and egg-producing female nematodes were present in fish throughout the year. New infections in fish were most common in summer but occurred all year round. This life history pattern seems to be mainly due to the availability of infected ephemeropteran intermediate hosts during all seasons, in this case the nymphs of Ephemera danica, a species noted for its two-year development. In this locality, specifically not determined Rhabdochona larvae were recorded from the mayfly nymphs Ephemera danica (0.4%), Ecdyonurus aurantiacus (7%), and Caenis macrura (10%). The diet of the chub included mayfly nymphs at all seasons. 相似文献

A phylogenetic analysis of 40 species of Rhabdochona Railliet, 1916, including all 21 valid species in the Americas, resulted in 1733 equally most parsimonious trees and indicates that Rhabdochona is arguably monophyletic. Species from the Americas do not form a monophyletic group, since each of the six clades of Rhabdochona includes species from the Americas and species from other continents. The synapomorphies defining each clade stem from the morphology of the left spicule. Teeth number was consistent in one clade only, suggesting that this character, while useful for taxonomic purposes, is not indicative of phylogeny. Species of Rhabdochona associated with certain host groups, such as salmonids, catostomids and goodeids, do not always form monophyletic assemblages, nor do species associated with smaller discrete areas, such as the Mesa Central of Mexico. This indicates widespread host-switching rather than co-speciation as the main phenomenon in the evolution of this group, at least in the species from the Americas. Phylogenetic patterns reveal an ancient origin for the group that probably pre-dates current continental configurations. 相似文献

An examination of the south Patagonian and Fuegian plant, Phaiophleps lyckholmi (Dusén) R. C. Foster, shows that it can be distinguished from the more widespread P. biflora (Thunb.) R. C. Foster by its leaf anatomy and perianth colour; these taxa can also be separated on the lengths of the peduncle and filament-tube, and on the shape of the perianth tube, although there is some overlap in these features. Because of the intermediates it is proposed that the two taxa be recognized as subspecies– P. biflora subsp. biflora , occupying grassland and dwarf-shrub communities at altitudes below 700 (-1000) m, reaches north to c. 46o S latitude in Patagonia, while P. biflora subsp. lyckholmi (Dusén) D. M. Moore Stat. nov., is restricted to open habitats above (150-) 1050 m in Tierra del Fuego and Patagonia south of 48o 50's latitude. 相似文献

Two new nematode species, Beaninema nayaritense n. gen., n. sp. and Rhabdochona xiphophori n. sp., are described on the basis of the specimens recovered from the gall bladder and intestine of 2 fishes, Cichlasoma beani (Jordan) (Cichlidae, Perciformes) and Xiphophorus sp. (Poeciliidae, Cyprinodontiformes), respectively, from Mexico. The monotypic genus Beaninema differs from other rhabdochonid genera mainly in the presence of large conical teeth in the middle of the prostom. Rhabdochona xiphophori is characterized mainly by a unique structure of the prostom (presence of 6 anterior teeth; dorsal and ventral teeth unusually broad, with 2 lateral horns) and the shape of the deirids (bifurcated, with markedly long base). 相似文献
