Host specificity, molecular phylogeny and morphological differences of Phyllodistomum pseudofolium Nybelin, 1926 and Phyllodistomum angulatum Linstow, 1907 (Trematoda: Gorgoderidae) with notes on Eurasian ruffe as final host for Phyllodistomum spp.

Abstract: BackgroundHost-specificity patterns are not well-defined for trematodes of the genus Phyllodistomum Braun, 1899. The Eurasian ruffe, Gymnocephalus cernuus L., has been recorded as a definitive host for Phyllodistomum folium (Olfers, 1816), P. angulatum Linstow, 1907 and P. megalorchis Nybelin, 1926 and as the type-host for P. pseudofolium Nybelin (1926). A wide range of other host fishes have been recorded for these species as well. All present host records have been based on light microscopy and the life-cycl… Show more

“…In the phylogenetic tree obtained from the 28S dataset, all members of the genus Xystretrum included in the analysis formed a well-supported clade, but without nodal support with their sister clade. A similar result has been reported in previous phylogenetic analyses carried out for similar taxa using the same gene (e.g., Cutmore et al 2013;Razo-Mendivil et al 2013;Pérez-Ponce de León et al 2015;Petkevičiūtė et al 2015;Urabe et al 2015;Stunžėnas et al 2017). Cutmore et al (2013) detected that the species of Xystretrum genus are not closely related to marine representatives of the family Gorgoderidae.…”

“…folium Olfers, 1816 infecting Gymnocephalus cernuus from Lithuania (19, 12%, respectively; Stunžėnas et al, 2017); P. punctati infecting Channa punctata from Ozhakkodi Wayanad, Kerala, India (7%, Jithila & Prasadan, 2018); and P. thunni Baudin-Laurencin & Richard, 1973 infecting Thunnus albacares from Gulf of Guinea (14.8%, Guidelli et al, 2018). However, it is lower than P. inecoli infecting Heterandria bimaculata from Creek at Aqua Bendita, Xico, Veracruz, Mexico (96%, Razo-Mendivil et al, 2013); P. hohhettae infecting Plectropomus leopardus from Lizard Island, Northern Great Barrier Reef (80%, Ho et al, 2014); P. vaili infecting Mulloidichthys vanicolensis from Lizard Island, Northern Great Barrier Reef (100%, Ho et al, 2014); and P. angulatum infecting S. lucioperca from Lithuania (100%; Stunžėnas et al, 2017).…”

“…in European freshwater fishes, the species composition of the genus is under scrutiny and remains controversial. Our recent studies [ 5 , 6 , 9 ] have challenged previous data on species diversity and life-cycles in this presumably well-known group of trematodes. However, there are still serious gaps in our knowledge of the genus Phyllodistomum and a number of unanswered questions concerning the validity and specificity of the nominal species and the identity of unidentified genetic lineages are still awaiting clarification.…”

“…Phyllodistomum Braun, 1899 is one of the most speciose digenean genera, comprised of species parasitizing in the urinary bladder and/or ureters of freshwater and marine fish and, more rarely, amphibians throughout the world [ 1 – 6 ], and new species descriptions continue to be published on a regular basis [ 3 , 4 , 7 , 8 ]. Species of Phyllodistomum infecting fishes of Europe have been studied for more than two centuries, starting with the description of Phyllodistomum umblae (Fabricius, 1780) (as Fasciola umblae ) from the Arctic char, Salvelinus alpinus (L.) in Norway.…”
