Objetivo. Identificar nematodos de la familia Anisakidae en el pez de consumo Mugil curema. Materiales y métodos. Para este estudio, se recolectaron 16 peces Lisa (M. curema) del puerto de Tumaco, una ciudad en la costa colombiana del Pacífico. La identificación morfológica de las larvas se realizó mediante taxonomía clásica y se calculó el porcentaje de infestación de larvas. Para la identificación molecular, se realizó una PCR múltiple con cebadores para las especies Anisakis physeteris, Pseudoterranova decipiens, Anisakis simplex sensu stricto, Contracaecum osculatum, Hysterothylacium aduncum y Anisakis pegreffii. Resultados. La revisión taxonómica permitió la identificación de larvas de tipo II del género Anisakis y larvas del género Pseudoterranova. Las larvas se aislaron principalmente del intestino, donde se encontró que el 94% de los peces estaban parasitados por nematodos anisakidos. La PCR multiplex permitió la identificación de la especie A. physeteris (Larva tipo II) y P. decipiens. Conclusiones. Este estudio en el primer reporte del nematodo Anisakidae en Tumaco, Colombia. Estos resultados proporcionan una justificación convincente para un estudio adicional sobre la familia Anisakidae en Colombia, como un problema de salud pública.

Three species of anisakine nematodes (Pseudoterranova decipiens, Contracaecum osculatum, Anisakis simplex) co-occur in the stomachs of Sable Island harbour seals (Phoca vitulina). The sealworm, P. decipiens, was the commonest nematode in these seals. Anisakis simplex was found in much smaller numbers, none mature, indicating that the harbour seal is not a true final host to this parasite. Contracaecum osculatum was rare but half were mature. Pseudoterranova decipiens increased in abundance with size of the seal. An inverse relationship was observed between P. decipiens abundance and the age of seals of similar size, probably owing to changes in diet. Numbers of P. decipiens may have declined over the summer, coincident with an increase in the proportion of mature worms in the stomach. From similarities between the worm infections of grey seals (Halichoerus grypus) and harbour seals, we infer that A. simplex abundance may also exhibit a decline in abundance. Contracaecum osculatum was only encountered during the latter half of the year, suggesting an association with prey species of corresponding periodicity in their distribution. We estimate that the abundance of sealworm in harbour seals is about 2.5% of that carried by the grey seal population. This could imply that harbour seals represent an insignificant vector of the sealworm infecting commercial fish species in the Northwest Atlantic, provided density-dependent relationships exist between worm abundances in different host species.

Nematoda parasites of five greenling species from the Far-Eastern Seas ( Pleurogrammus azonus , P . monopterygius , Hexagrammos octogrammus , H . lagocephalus , H . stelleri ) are investigated. The family Hexagrammidae is endemic for the North Pacific. In total, 10 species of nematodes are found: Anisakis simplex l., Pseudoterranova decipiens l., Hysterothylacium aduncum , Contracaecum osculatum l., Ascarophis filiformis , A. curvicauda , A. pacifica , Cucullanellus minutus , Cucullanus heterochrous , and Paracapillaria helenae , all of them have wide geographical and hosts distribution. Anisakis simplex l. and Pseudoterranova decipiens l. are the most common for all investigated host species. The highest species diversity of nematodes (7 species) is registered for arabesque greenling P. azonus , particularly its females; Contracaecum osculatum l. and Cucullanus heterochrous are found for the first time for this host in the Japan Sea. The parasites are dispersed irregularly in muscles of all parts of fish body. Large-sized (i.e. elder) fish is higher infected by larvae of P. decipiens .

Winter Breeding

The abundance and maturity of three species of anisakine nematode (Pseudoterranova decipiens, Contracaecum osculatum, Anisakis simplex) that co-occurred in the stomachs of Sable Island grey seals were examined in relation to seal growth and seasonal considerations. Sealworm (P. decipiens), the predominant nematode in these seals, typically reached numbers of 400 to 2000 worms per stomach. C. osculatum and A. simplex were usually found in much smaller numbers of 40 to 100 and 20 to 60 worms, respectively, per stomach. All three species initially increased in abundance as the seals grew, but after most of a seals’ growth had been attained P. decipiens abundance continued to increase with age, A. simplex numbers either continued to increase or were simply maintained, while C. osculatum abundance declined. Numbers of both P. decipiens and A. simplex declined during winter breeding/pupping and summer moulting fasts or partial fasts, and rose during the regular feeding periods between the fasts. Conversely, numbers of C. osculatum rose during the breeding period, and also during the moulting period in younger seals. We believe this could be attributed to some degree of feeding on prey species in the immediate vicinity of Sable Island that were not preferred during focused feeding periods, and that the inclination to feed during fasting periods decreased as seals grew. An inverse relationship between worm abundance and worm maturity, attributable to the seasonal changes in rates of ingestion of immature worms, was more pronounced for C. osculatum than P. decipiens. C. osculatum was usually represented by much higher proportions of mature worms than P. decipiens. This could be entirely related to the longer periods of time dedicated to feeding than spent breeding or moulting, but higher mortality rates of immature C. osculatum or greater longevity of mature C. osculatum could also have occurred. A. simplex, generally associated with cetacean species as final hosts, rarely matured in grey seals. We have doubts that the grey seal could be considered a final host for A. simplex.

AbstractIn the present study 5 grey seals (Halichoerus grypus), 3 common seals (Phoca vitulina) and 1 ringed seal (Pusa hispida) bycaught or stranded on the Polish Baltic Sea coast in years 2000-2006 were investigated for the infestation of parasitic anisakid nematodes. 749 of anisakids were found. The most common were: Contracaecum osculatum (59.3%) and Pseudoterranova decipiens (31.0%). There were also small numbers of Anisakis simplex (0.8%). After performing RFLP three sibling species were found. C. osculatum was identified as C. osculatum C, P decipiens was identified as P. decipiens sensu stricto and A. simplex — A. simplex sensu stricto. Nematodes found in seals were mostly in L4 and adult life stage — both of them were equal with some minor variations among the specimens. Sex ratio was also equal, but there was slight excess of males in some cases. There was a minority of L3 larvae belonging to A. simplex species (0.8%).
