“…This is one of the less represented taxa in marine fishes off the Americas. Suborder Oxyurina Railliet, 1916Superfamily Oxyuroidea Cobbold, 1864 This superfamily is monophyletic (see Sata and Nakano, 2020) and represented by small parasitic nematodes of all classes of vertebrates and invertebrates. They are also called 'pinworms' and characterized by the presence of a bulb in the posterior end of the oesophagus and a prolonged caudal extremity of the female.…”

The ichthyofauna of the Atlantic and Pacific coasts off the American continent is very rich. Consequently, a high biodiversity of nematodes parasitizing these vertebrates is also expected. Currently, data on nematode parasites of marine fish off the Americas are fragmented. A review of all adult nematode species reported parasitizing marine fish from off the American continent is herein presented, as well as comments on their patterns of diversity, life cycles and advances in the taxonomic and phylogenetic knowledge. A total of 209 valid species, 19 species inquirendae and 6 dubious records have been recorded, the majority from the fish taxa Eupercaria and Perciformes. The families Sciaenidae, Serranidae and Lutjanidae, as well as the tropical and temperate Atlantic waters, exhibited the highest records of parasitic nematodes. The Cucullanidae, Philometridae and Cystidicolidae were the most speciose families of nematodes, which may be related to technological advances and relatively recent efforts of taxonomists, resulting in description of new taxa and the resolution of taxonomic problems. Numerous taxonomic questions still need resolution and, even though genetic data have been important for this process, the database is very scarce. This is the first review on all currently known nematode species parasitizing marine fish off the Americas and may serve as an important basis of reference for future approaches on these organisms.

“…Despite the increasing number of studies regarding the superfamily Cosmocercoidea in the last 10 years (Ross et al ., 2010; Jones et al ., 2011; Sato et al ., 2015; Tran et al ., 2015; Chen et al ., 2018, 2020, 2021a, b; Maity et al ., 2019; Sümer et al ., 2019; Liu et al ., 2020; Sata & Nakano, 2020; Harnoster et al ., 2022), the current knowledge about the molecular phylogeny of the family is still scarce (Chen et al , 2021a). To date, molecular data for only 39 species of Cosmocercoidea, of which 23 species are of the subfamily Cosmocercinae (18S, 28S, ITS, 12S, Cox1 and Cox2), are available in the GenBank database.…”

First molecular assessment on Cosmocerca spp. from Brazilian anurans and description of a new species of Cosmocerca (Ascaridomorpha: Cosmocercoidea) from the white-spotted humming frog Chiasmocleis albopunctata (Boettger, 1885) (Anura: Microhylidae)

Cosmocerca spp. are common nematode parasites of amphibians. We provide herein molecular data for two species of Cosmocerca and describe a new species, Cosmocerca albopunctata n. sp., using light microscopy and molecular data (cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 – COI mtDNA). Cosmocerca albopunctata n. sp. can be easily distinguished from other congeneric species by the combination of characteristics such as body size, length of spicules and gubernaculum, and the arrangements and number of caudal papillae (7 + 1:1 + 1:6). The phylogenetic results based on the partial COI mtDNA sequences clustered the new species in a monophyletic clade along with the other sequences of Cosmocerca spp. Therefore, our results contribute to the knowledge about the species diversity and genetic data for Cosmocerca spp. in the Neotropical region.
