Cichlids in Southern Africa: attractive hosts for Gyrodactylus species
Original language description
In order to understand the diversity of viviparous monogeans parasitizing on cichlids in the region of Southern Africa were collected host fish during 2011-2012, in South Africa from the Nwanedi River and in Zimbabwe from Zambia River, Lakes Kariba and Chivero. Viviparous monogena of the genus Gyrodactylus Nordmann, 1832 were recorded on Oreochromis niloticus (L.), Pharyngochromis acuticeps (Steindachner), Pseudocrenilabrus philander (Weber), Tilapia rendalli Smith, Tilapia sparrmanii Smith and Tilapiasp.. Species identification based on haptoral sclerites morphometry and nuclear ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences revealed presence of high number of Gyrodactylus species, which only few of them are currently known for the sciences as described species, i.e. Gyrodactylus nyanzae Paperna, 1973, Gyrodactylus sturmbaueri Vanhove, Snoeks, Volckaert & Huyse, 2011, and Gyrodactylus yacatli García-Vásquez, Hansen, Christison, Bron & Shinn, 2011.
