Parasitic infestations in hybrid surubim catfish fry (Pseudoplatystoma reticulatum x P. corruscans)

Abstract

ABSTRACT. Pádua S.B., Ishikawa M.M., Kasai R.Y.D., Jerônimo G.T., Carrijo-Mauad J.R. [Parasitic infestations in hybrid surubim catfish fry (Pseudoplatystoma reticulatum x P. corruscans)]. Infestações parasitárias em alevinos de surubim hí- brido (Pseudoplatystoma reticulatum x P. corruscans). Revista Brasileira de Medicina Veterinária, 34(3):235-240, 2012. Centro de Aquicultura, Unesp (CAUNESP), Rod. Paulo Donato Castellane, s/n, Bairro Rural, Jaboticabal, SP 14884-900, Brazil. E-mail: santiagopadua@live.com This study evaluated parasitic infestations in the hybrid surubim catfish (Pseudoplatystoma reticulatum ♀ x P. corruscans ♂) during the initial phase of rearing. 50 fish of lengths ranging from 5.7 to 20.3 cm and weights from 1.2 to 48.8 g were examined. Among the fish evaluated, only 15 (30%) were parasite-free, while at least one type of parasite was diagnosed in all of the other 35 (70%). Among these, the protozoan Ichthyophthirius multifiliis, Epistylis sp. and Trichodina sp. were observed. Occurrences of myxosporidians were seen, represented by Henneguya sp. and a metazoan belonging to the class Monogenoidea. The ciliated protozoa I. multifiliis, Epistylis sp. and Trichodina sp. were the main parasites infesting the gills and tegument of hybrid catfish fry. The peritrichid Epistylis sp. may be an emerging parasite in Brazil.

Este estudo avaliou as infestações parasitárias que acometem alevinos de surubim hí- brido (Pseudoplatystoma reticulatum ♀ x P. corruscans ♂) durante a fase inicial de criação. 50 peixes com tamanho variando de 5,7 a 20,3 cm e pesando de 1,2 a 48,8 g foram examinados. Entre os peixes examinados, somente 15 (30%) estavam livres de qualquer parasito e os demais apresentaram infestação por pelo menos um tipo de parasito 35 (70%). Entre estes, foram observados os protozoários Ichthyophthirius multifiliis, Epistylis sp. e Trichodina sp. Foram observados mixosporídeos, representado por Henneguya sp. e um metazoário pertencente à classe Monogenoidea. Os protozoários ciliados I. multifiliis, Epistylis sp. e Trichodina sp. foram os principais parasitos que infestaram brânquia e tegumento de alevinos de surubim híbrido. O peritríquio Epistylis sp. pode tratar-se de um parasito emergente no Brasil.
