- W4319004328 abstract "Abstract Background Monogenean parasites have never been formally reported on fishes from the Lufira River Basin. In this context, we decided to record the monogenean parasite fauna of three cichlid species found in the Upper Lufira River Basin for the first time by inventorizing their diversity (species composition) and analysing their infection parameters (prevalence, mean intensity and abundance). Methods The African cichlid fishes Oreochromis mweruensis , Coptodon rendalli and Serranochromis macrocephalus were selected for the study, given their economic value and their abundance in the Upper Lufira River Basin. Monogeneans were isolated from the gills and stomach, mounted on glass slides with either Hoyer’s medium or ammonium picrate-glycerin for identification under a stereomicroscope, based on morphological analysis of genital and haptoral hard parts. Indices of diversity and infections parameters were calculated. Results A total of 13 gill monogenean parasite species ( Cichlidogyrus dossoui , C. halli , C. karibae , C. mbirizei , C. papernastrema , C. quaestio , C. sclerosus , C. tiberianus , C. tilapiae , C. zambezensis , Scutogyrus gravivaginus , S. cf. bailloni and Gyrodactylus nyanzae ) and one stomach monogenean ( Enterogyrus malmbergi ) were identified. A species richness ( S ) of 10 for O. mweruensis , S = 6 for C. rendalli and S = 2 for S. macrocephalus was recorded. Five parasite species were reported to be common amongst O. mweruensis and C. rendalli. According to cichlid species, the most prevalent parasite species was C. halli (prevalence [ P ] = 80.9%) on O. mweruensis , C. dossoui ( P = 92.9%) on C. rendalli and C. karibae and C. zambezensis (both P = 9.1%) on S. macrocephalus. The parasite species with the highest mean intensity (MI) were G. nyanzae (MI = 8.7) on O. mweruensis , C. papernastrema (MI = 17.1) on C. rendalli and C. karibae (MI = 15) on S. macrocephalus. The findings indicate new host ranges for five parasites species ( C. quaestio, S. cf. bailloni, E. malmbergi on O. mweruensis, C. halli on C. rendalli and C. karibae on S. macrocephalus ) as well as new geographical records for all of them as they are recorded for the first time in the Lufira River Basin. Conclusions This study highlighted the richness of monogenean communities in the Upper Lufira River Basin and is a starting point for future helminthological studies, such as on the use of fish parasites as indicators of anthropogenic impacts.
