“…This study showed similar values of infestation when compared to other fish species. Slightly higher prevalence in the spotted goatfish herein studied was observed in comparison to M. argentinae , lane snapper Lutjanus synagris (Cavalcanti et al, 2013), mutton snapper Lutjanus analis (Hermida et al, 2014), blue runner Caranx crysos, castin leatherjacket Oligoplites saliens and largehead hairtail Trichiurus lepturus (Carvalho-Souza et al, 2009), and the former have reported by the first time its occurrence in the Baía de Cotegipe, Bahia, Northeast Brazil. Contrarily to that observed in this study, high prevalence rates were found in Spanish mackerel Scomberomorus brasiliensis and in parrotfish Sparisoma frondosum from the Rio Grande do Norte (Lima et al, 2005;Cavalcanti et al, 2012).…”

“…Cymothoa spinipalpa and Rocinela signata showed a higher prevalence in hosts with a longer-body size, especially for individuals between 15 and 30 cm length [20] . A low prevalence of 14% and a new occurrence of isopod Cymothoa sp.…”

“…It is an ectoparasite commonly found in fishes in northeastern Brazil (CARVALHO-SOUSA et al, 2009), and has previously been detected in L. analis (MOREIRA, 1977). Aegids are temporary parasites that attach to their hosts and suck blood, and they usually have very low host specificity; in fact, R. signata is known to attack humans (GARZÓN-FERREIRA, 1990).…”
