“…Besides our previous record, only one additional record of monogeneans in the Atlantic bumper (C. chrysurus) from the Gulf of Mexico is available. The parasite was Amphipolycotyle chloroscombrus Hargis, 1957, in spite of this, Yamaguti (1963 proposed the synonymy of Engraulicola and Amphipolycotyle, although A. chloroscombrus is still referred to as a valid species and has been recorded in the general geographic area of our specimen collection (Bravo-Hollis, 1984;Costa & Chellappa, 2016). Currently, the genus Engraulicola George, 1960 (Monogenea: Gastrocotylidae: Gastrocotylinea) includes three valid species parasitizing Engraulidae fishes from the Indo-Pacific: E. forcipopenis George, 1960, E. micropharyngella Unnithan, 1967, andE.…”

“…These worms are considered to be among the most host-specific parasites in fish, commonly found on fins, body skin, gills, gill chambers, buccal cavity, cornea and nostrils of their host. 14 The parasites Crustaceans are the most diverse and ubiquitous subphylum of arthropods in the seas. Most of the crustacean parasites are ectoparasites of a wide range of marine invertebrate and vertebrate organisms.…”

“…Monogeneans are a group of largely ectoparasitic members of the phylum Platyhelminthes. These worms are considered to be among the most host-specific parasites in fish, commonly found on fins, body skin, gills, gill chambers, buccal cavity, cornea and nostrils of their host [9]. Digeneans have a ventral or postero-ventral sucker, sometimes absent and the adults are primarily parasites of the gut, but they also occur free or incapsulated in the tissues of the vertebrates [10,11].…”
