In the last 25 years, nematode parasites of the genus Anisakis have attracted international attention from various socio-economic sectors, with serious concern about the impact of these parasites on seafood quality and safety, and public health (related to both zoonoses and allergy). A knowledge-based understanding of the population structure of Anisakis spp. is useful to provide valuable data about the infection dynamics, host specificity and its ability to adapt to local environments and to climate change by adapting to the food-web structure. This study first aimed to investigate the taxonomic biodiversity of Anisakis spp. collected from commercial fish and cetacean species from the most significant Northeast Atlantic fishing grounds and evaluate the ecological connections of A. simplex and A. pegreffii (L3 and adults) in cetaceans and fish from NW Spain, through the analysis of their genetic diversity and population structure. A total of 1399 Anisakis spp. L3 larvae from six fish species and 475 adults from six cetacean species were identified using the ITS rDNA region as a molecular marker. Molecular identification allowed for the first detection of A. berlandi in European waters parasitizing the long-finned pilot whales Globicephala melas and the first report of A. nascettii and A. zhiphidarum infecting the striped dolphin Stenella coeruleoalba, as well as the identification of A. simplex, A. pegreffii and the hybrid genotype between both species. The analysis of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase 2 gene of A. simplex and A. pegreffii, the most prevalent species in FAO area 27, revealed panmictic populations for both species with high haplotype diversity. The predatory–prey relationship involving two major fish species (European hake and blue whiting) and the common dolphin appears to provide an important mechanism for maintaining genetic diversity and structure in major Anisakis species in the NE Atlantic.

Notifications on Anisakis spp. in the Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed (RASFF) Reported in 2001–2023

Anisakis spp. was the most frequently reported parasite in the Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed (RASFF). Notifications relating to it accounted for 73.6% of all notifications submitted in this system between 2001 and 2023 in the hazard category “parasitic infestation”. Using a two-way joining cluster analysis, notifications reported in the RASFF during the period indicated concerning Anisakis spp. were examined by considering the year, notification type, product category, product, notifying country, country of origin, notification basis and action taken. These mainly concerned hake and mackerel from Spain and also anglerfish and mackerel from France (reported by Italy after official controls on the market) and anchovies and scabbardfish from Morocco (sent by Spain after border controls). Products from Spain and France were reported as alerts and information notifications and then were officially detained, withdrawn from the market or destroyed. Fish from Morocco were detained and destroyed. Although the number of Anisakis spp. notifications has decreased significantly in recent years, food safety authorities should continue to be active in this area. Meanwhile, consumers should be aware that the consumption of unprocessed fish should be avoided.
