Afrogyrodactylus Paperna, 1968 (Gyrodactylidae: Monogenea) parasites of alestid fishes
Original language description
Until recently, taxonomical status of Afrogyrodactylus Paperna, 1968 has been unclear. During parasitological surveys of freshwater fishes in several African countries, parasites of this genus have been recorded on alestid fish only. In 2004, one specimens of Afrogyrodactylus was recorded on the fin of nurse tetra, Brycinus nurse (Ruppell, 1832) in Niokolo Koba National Park, Eastern Senegal and in 2010, many of them were collected from the fins of the same host collected from Nile River in Sudan. In March 2012, during an addditional sampling in South Africa, has discovered these parasites on the gill arches of the silver robber, Micralestes acuditens (Peters, 1853) in the Nwanedi River, Limpopo Province.
