Study of species diversity of viviparous monogeneans parasitizing african cichlids: looking for a needle in a haystack
Original language description
The diversity of monogenean ectoparasites of Gyrodactylidae Cobbold, 1864 is well known with more than 440 described species worldwide. However, to date, gyrodactylids from the African continent has not been well-researched. In order to better understandthe diversity of viviparous monogeneans parasitizing African cichlids, various species of cichlids were collected and examined during 2011-2013 from Zimbabwe, South Africa, Burundi and Democratic Republic of Congo. In addition viviparous parasites of northern African cichlids, originating from Sudan and Egypt were also included in the study. Thus material from four African riverine basins were examined, i.e. Limpopo River basin (Nwanedzi River, South Africa), Zambezi River basin (Zambezi River, Karibaand Chivero Lakes, Zimbabwe), Congo River basin (Lake Tanganyika, Burundi and Democratic Republic of Congo) and Nile River basin (Nile River, Sudan and Egypt).
