New host and distribution records for five species of Enterogyrus (Dactylogyridae: Ancyrocephalinae) from cichlid hosts in South Africa

Article scientifique 2022 Anglais

Résumé

Abstract Three species of Cichlidae, Coptodon rendalli, Oreochromis mossambicus and Tilapia sparrmanii were screened for the presence of stomach monogeneans. Four localities across three provinces of South Africa (Limpopo, Northern Cape and North West) were sampled and a total of five Enterogyrus spp. were identified, E. cichlidarum, E. coronatus, E. malmbergi, E. mashegoi and E. multispiralis. Finding E. malmbergi from O. mossambicus and T. sparrmanii represents new host and new geographic records. Enterogyrus coronatus was reported from C. rendalli and T. sparrmanii from three localities. Both hosts are new host records for the species and show a wide distribution of E. coronatus within South Africa. Tilapia sparrmanii is a new host record for E. cichlidarum and E. multispiralis. Enterogyrus mashegoi and E. cichlidarum are reported from new localities.
