Fish of five species of Notothenioidei (104 specimens), Cottoperca trigloides, Patagonotothen brevicauda, P. longipes, P. tessellata and Champsocephalus esox, caught in the Beagle Channel (Magellanic sub-region, sub-Antarctica) were infected with Digenea of nine species (1130 specimens). Faunistic data on the occurrence of all nine parasites are provided. The most abundant digenean species was Macvicaria magellanica found in the intestine of three host species of the genus Patagonotothen. The second most abundant digenean species was Elytrophalloides oatesi found in the stomach of four host species, with exception of P. brevicauda. Three digenean species: Stenakron kerguelense, Whitegonimus ozoufae and Genolinea bowersi, were more abundant in fish caught at the harbor of Ushuaia (depth 7–9 m), remaining six species: M. magellanica, Neolepidapedoides subantarcticus, Postmonorchis variabilis, Derogenes varicus, E. oatesi and Lecithaster macrocotyle, in the eastern mouth of the Beagle Channel (depth 30 m).
New data on the infection with Acanthocephala of 33 fish caught in Admiralty Bay in November 2007 to January 2008 are given. These fish belong to 5 species: Notothenia rossii (22 immature specimens), Lindbergichthys nudifrons (n = 7), Trematomus bernacchii (n = 1), T. newnesi (n = 1) and Harpagifer antarcticus (n = 2). Three species of Echinorhynchida: Aspersentis megarhynchus, Metacanthocephalus dalmori and M. johnstoni and four species of Polymorphida: Corynosoma arctocephali, C. bullosum, C. hamanni and C. pseudohamanni, were found. Prevalence of N. rossii and L. nudifrons was 100%. The mean abundance of infection of N. rossii (125.09) was larger than that of Notothenia coriiceps (82.93). Data of infection of N. rossii in 2007 was almost identical with that in 1979 (mean abundance 118.66). The most abundant in this host were A. megarhynchus, M. johnstoni, C. hamanni and C. pseudohamanni (mean abundances 36.36, 29.77, 13.86 and 44.73, respectively). In total Echinorhynchida were more abundant than Polymorphida in 2007/08 (66.18 versus 58.91). Reverse situation was in 1979 (mean abundance 47.36 for Echinorhynchida and 71.3 for Polymorphida. Only 7 L. nudifrons were examined in 2007/08 and Echinorhynchida were more numerous in this host (mean abundance 26.71) than Polymorphida (10.29). Single specimens of other fish were infected with a few Acanthocephala belonging to species recorded in the same hosts with those found in 1978/79.
he infections of four fish species, Trematomus newnesi, T. bernacchii, Lindber- gichthys nudifrons and Harpagifer antarcticus with parasitic worms, in the coastal zone off the Vernadsky Station (Argentine Islands, West Antarctica) are described. Data on infections are compared with previous results from Admiralty Bay at the South Shetland Islands. Indices of infection are for each host-parasite relationship. In total, 16 taxa of parasites were recorded: 6 digeneans, 3 larval cestodes, 4 (adult and cystacanth) acanthocephalans, and 3 (adult and larval) nematodes. Fifteen of them have been previously recorded in Notothenia coriiceps from this area. Hence, the number of parasitic taxa recorded in this region increased from 21 to 22. Either the digenean Macvicaria georgiana or acanthocephalan Corynosoma pseudohamanni were dominants in different hosts. Trematomus bernacchii was the most strongly infected, especially with M. georgiana (prevalence 100%, mean abundance 113.7). The infection parameters of the majority of parasites were lower at the Vernadsky Station than in the Admiralty Bay, especially for host-parasite relations with larval cestodes and nematodes. The presently reported study have confirmed that the southern range of distribution of two acanthocephalans, Aspersentis megarhynchus and Corynosoma hamanni extends south to the area near the Argentine Islands.
In total, 60 fish specimens belonging to four families, Zoarcidae (19 specimens of three species), Liparididae (14 specimens of two species), Macrouridae (23 specimens of one species) and Rajidae (four specimens of two species), caught in the Weddell Sea were examined. A zoarcid, Lycodichthys dearborni, and both Rajidae, Bathyraja maccaini and Bathyraja sp., were not infected. Macrourus whitsoni was the most strongly infected (six digenean species found, prevalence 91.3%, mean abundance 10.13). Two zoarcids, Ophthalmolycus amberensis and O. bothriocephalus, were infected with Macvicaria longibursata; the former also with Aphanurus sp., Paraliparis antarcticus and P. trilobodon were infected with Steringophorus liparidis and Neolebouria terranovaensis, and Derogenes johnstoni, respectively. The check list of Digenea recorded in Antarctica in non- notothenioid fishes is given. Infected fishes belong to six families, Zoarcidae (7 digenean species found), Macrouridae (8), Muraenolepididae (9), Liparididae (5), Bathylagidae (one) and Rajidae (one). In total, 29 digenean species were found, of which 12 are common for Notothenioidei and other fishes, whereas 17 species are specific for non-notothenioid definitive hosts. Digenea belong to four higher taxa, Opecoelidae (10 species), Lepocreadiidae (10), Fellodistomidae (one) and Hemiuroidea (8).
During a survey of the parasite fauna of the euryhaline notothenioid fish Eleginops maclovinus (Cuvier) caught in brackish water creeks in the Falkland Islands, small white cysts were observed in the mesenteries and on the surfaces of the visceral organs and heart. On dissection these proved to be plasmodia of a species of the myxosporean genus Henneguya. This is the first record of a member of this genus from a marine or euryhaline fish in the south-west Atlantic. A comparison of the spore of our species with other species in the genus convinced us that our species is new. This paper describes it as Henneguya shackletoni sp. nov. after the Shackleton Fund which funded the study.
In total, 404 fishes of 34 species caught in the Weddell Sea were examined, including four specimens of skates, Bathyraja maccaini and Bathyraja sp., and 23 specimens of the gadiform fish, Macrounis whitsoni (the only three species infected with adult Cestoda). Skates were infected with four representatives of the order Tetraphyllidea, Marsupiobothrium awii sp. n., Anthocephalum siedlecka (syn. Phyllobothrium siedleckii), Anthocephalum arctowskii (syn. Phyllobothrium arctowskii), Oncobothrium antarcticum. The three last species were first described in the South Shetland Islands area. Phyllobothrium siedleckii from B. maccaini (new host) and P. arctowskii from Bathyraja sp. are transferred to the genus Anthocephalum and their descriptions are emended. Marsupiobothrium awii sp. n. from B. maccaini is characterised by: apolytic strobila; scolex with four sessile, jar-like bothridia, each with opening provided with a ring of muscles and submarginal sucker; 120-150 testes; vagina with dilatation in proximal part and sphincter present distally; eggs 0.016 x 0.017 mm. Differential diagnosis with remaining species of the Marsupiobothrium is given. Oncobothrium antarcticum was found in B. maccaini (new host). M. whitsoni was infected with one pseudophyllidean species, Parabothriocephalus johnstoni, previously known as only from the same host in the Indian sector of the Antarctic Ocean.
