Abstract
Of
797
fish
of
28
species
,
159
of
12
species
yielded
blood
parasites.
--
Eight
species
of
protozoan
parasites
are
reported
-
three
each
of
Trypanosoma
and
Haemogregarina
, and
two
of
Haemohormidium.
--
Trypanosoma
rajae
Laveran
&
Mesnil
is
recorded
from
Raja
radiata.
Undetermined
trypanosomes
are
reported
from
Glyptocephalus
cynoglossus
and
Gadus
morhua
respectively.
--
Haemogregarina
myoxocephali
Fantham
et
al.
was
found
in
Myoxocephalus
octodecemspinosus.
The
occurrence
of
haemogregarine
sporozoites
(perhaps
of this
species)
in the
gut
of a
piscicolid
leech
(Malmiana
nuda)
from
Myoxocephalus
scorpius
represents
the
first
discovery
of a
potential
vector
of any
fish
haemogregarine.
New
hosts
are
listed
for
H.
delagei
Laveran
&
Mesnil
and
H.
platessae
Lebailly.
--
Haemohormidium
terraenovae
n.
sp.
Is
described
from
six
hosts:-
Ammodytes
americanus
,
Urophycis
tenuis
,
Melanogrammus
aeglefinus
,
Limanda
ferruginea
,
Glyptocephalus
cynoglossus
and
Hippoglossoides
platessoides;
and
Haemohormidium
beckeri
n.sp.
from
Myoxocephalus
octodecemspinosus.
--
Intraerythrocytic
inclusions
of
unknown
origin
were
common
in
Clupea
harengus
and
Argentina
silus
, and
myxosporidans
occurred
as
blood
film
contaminants
in
Raja
radiata
and
Gadus
morhua
(in
the
latter
case
the
parasite
was
referable
to
Kudoa
sp.).
Other
artifacts
reported
were
bacterial
contaminants
from
Squalus
acanthias
and
Limanda
ferruginea.
