- W2288688950 abstract "Groupers with several skin swellings caused by large parasites in the muscle are well known among local fishermen of the Ryukyu Islands, southern Japan. These fish are disliked and have no commercial value at fish markets. Recently, we had the opportunity to examine a blacktip grouper, Epinephelus fasciatus (Forsskal, 1775) (Perciformes: Serranidae), showing such skin swellings and found that the cause was the philichthyid copepod Sarcotaces sp. Some of the local fishermen suppose that such muscle parasites of groupers may parasitize humans, but this note reports that the parasites are a species of copepod that is not infective to humans. One individual of E. fasciatus (205 mm in standard length, Fig. 1A) was caught commercially on 18 March 2013 in coastal waters of Amami-oshima Island, one of the Ryukyu Islands, Kagoshima Prefecture, southern Japan (detailed information on the sampling site was not obtained). This fish was first examined in fresh conditions at the laboratory of the Okinawa Churashima Foundation, Motobu Town, Okinawa Prefecture, where two cysts were detected in the right peduncle muscle of the fish (Fig.1B) and a female of Sarotaces sp. (Fig. 1C) was found in each cyst by the naked eye. The fish and the copepods were fixed in 10% neutralized formalin and then transported to the laboratory at Hiroshima University, Higashi-Hiroshima City, Hiroshima Perfecture, where all cysts were removed from the fish, and copepods were taken from the cysts. Specimens of the copepods were re-fixed and preserved in 70% ethanol. The fish specimen is deposited at the General Research Center of the Okinawa Churashima Foundation (OCF–P20130220–6), whereas the copepod specimens are ratained by one of the authors (D.U.) for further taxonomic work. The scientific names of fish used in this paper follow those recommended by Nakabo (2013). Abstract. Specimens of the philichthyid copepod Sarcotaces sp. were collected from gall-like cysts formed in the trunk and peduncle muscles under the skin of a blacktip grouper, Epinephelus fasciatus (Forsskal, 1775), from off Amami-oshima Island, the Ryukyu Islands, southern Japan. This finding constitutes the first record of copepod of Sarcotaces from the Ryukyu Islands. As many as eight cysts, each containing a large adult female, a dwaf adult male, and many eggs and nauplii of Sarcotaces sp., were observed in this fish." @default.
