A checklist of all available published accounts of metazoan parasites reported from marine and
freshwater fishes in Peru is provided. This list includes records of 612 different species of
metazoan parasites (including unidentified parasites) belonging to the following groups:
Platyhelminthes (430 total), including Monogenea (175), Cestoda (140), and Trematoda (115);
Crustacea (99); Nematoda (49); Acanthocephala (16); Myxozoa (16) and Annelida (2). These
parasites were reported from 207 fish species in Peru (174 teleost, 31 elasmobranch and 2
unspecified host species). The records of parasites unidentified to the species level (182 of 612),
representing 30% of all species, were also included.Among the fish parasites reported from Peru,
391 were marine, 217 were freshwater and 4 species were found in the both environments, for a
total of 1015 parasite-host associations. The fish species that harbored the highest number of
parasites were Merluccius gayi peruanus Ginsburg, 1954 (32), followed by Paralonchurus
peruanus (Steindachner, 1875) (31), Scomber japonicus Houttuyn, 1782 (31), Sciaena deliciosa
(Tschudi, 1846) (29) and Stellifer minor (Tschudi, 1846) (28), all of which are marine fish. The
parasites with the highest number of records were larvae of the cestodes Adenocephalus pacificus
Nybelin, 1931 (19), larvae of the nematode Anisakis sp. (18), larvae of Contracaecum sp. (17)
and larvae and adults of Lacistorhynchus tenuis (16), all of which were recovered from marine
fish, except for Contracaecum sp. larvae, which were recovered from both marine and freshwater
environments. The parasite diversity in Peruvian fishes seems to be biased by the sampling host
according to researcher interests, but it is also related to the biological features of both the
parasites and the hosts.

RESUMEN
Palabras clave: América del sur – Biodiversidad – Neotrópico – Oceano Pacífico – ParásitosTaxonomia
Se proporciona una lista de verficación de todos los registros válidos publicados de los metazoos
parásitos reportados en peces marinos y de agua dulce de Perú. Esta lista incluye los registros de
612 especies diferentes de metazoos parásitos (incluyendo parásitos no identificados) que
pertenecen a los siguientes grupos: Platyhelminthes (430 total), incluyendo Monogenea (175),
Cestoda (140), y Trematoda (115); Crustacea (99); Nematoda (49); Acanthocephala (16);
Myxozoa (14) y Annelida (2). Estos parásitos fueron reportados de 207 especies de peces de Perú
(174 teleósteos, 31 elasmobranquios y 2 especies de hospederos no determinados). Los registros
de los parásitos no identificados a nivel de especie (182 de 612), representando el 30% de todas
las especies, también fueron incluidos. Entre los parásitos de peces reportados de Perú, 391
fueron marinos, 217 de agua dulce y 4 especies se encontraron en ambos ambientes, para un total
de 1015 asociaciones parásito-hospedero. Las especies de peces que albergaron el mayor número
de parásitos fueron Merluccius gayi peruanus Ginsburg, 1954 (32), seguido de Paralonchurus
peruanus (Steindachner, 1875) (31), Scomber japonicus Houttuyn, 1782 (31), Sciaena deliciosa
(Tschudi, 1846) (29) y Stellifer minor (Tschudi, 1846) (28), todos ellos son peces marinos. Los
parásitos con el mayor número de registros fueron las larvas del cestodo Adenocephalus
pacificus Nybelin, 1931 (19), larvas del nematodo Anisakis sp. (18), larvas de Contracaecum sp.
(17) y larvas y adultos de Lacistorhynchus tenuis (16), los cuales fueron recuperados de peces
marinos, excepto las larvas de Contracaecum sp., las cuales fueron recuperados de ambos
ambientes. La diversidad de parásitos en peces peruanos parece estar sesgado por el hospedero
muestreado de acuerdo a los intereses del investigador, sino que también está relacionado con las
características biológicas de los parásitos y de los hospederos.

INTRODUCTION
There is currently a consensus that parasites
represent a large fraction of the Earth's total
biodiversity (Poulin, 2014), though several
questions remain unanswered regarding the
magnitude of parasite diversity and its
distribution in the world. Luque & Poulin
(2007) noted that studies on the diversity of
fish parasites have intensified, but these
organisms remain an underestimated
component of the total biodiversity in many
regions of the globe. They also suggested that
regional differences may reflect the true
biological patterns, which should be
considered when selecting targets for local fish
parasitology research.
Peru is an extremely diverse country with
several distinct marine and freshwater
environments. The Peruvian coast borders the
Pacific Ocean and comprises approximately
2500 km, including the Central Peru and
Humboldtian marine ecoregions (Spaldin,
2007), with a fish richness estimated at 705
species (Froese & Pouly, 2015).
For freshwater environments, the Peruvian
Amazon, which is well known for its high
biodiversity, comprises approximately 62% of
the country and includes the second-largest
portion of the Amazon rainforest after Brazil
(IIAP, 2011). Further, Peruvian territory
includes two biodiversity hotspots with a high
number of teleosts: the Tropical Andes
(between 400 and 600 freshwater fishes, nearly

that were not indexed by electronic databases
but were known to the authors were also
included. Undergraduate theses and scientific
meetings do not constitute formal publications
and were thus not considered. Records
published up to May 2016 are included.
The following parasite taxa were included:
Acanthocephala, Annelida (Hirudinea),
Crustacea (Malacostraca and Maxillopoda),
Myxozoa, Nematoda and Platyhelminthes
(Trematoda, Monogenea, and Cestoda).
The checklist follows the classification and
systematic arrangement proposed by Ahyong
et al. (2011) for Branchiura and Isopoda; Amin
(2013) for Acanthocephala; Anderson et al.
(2009) and Gibbons (2010) for Nematoda;
Boxshall & Halsey (2004) for Copepoda;
Cohen et al. (2013) for Monogenea; Davies
(1991) for Hirudinea; Gibson et al. (2002),
Jones et al. (2005) and Bray et al. (2008) for
Trematoda; Khalil et al. (1994) for Cestoda;
and Lom & Dyková (2006) for Myxozoa.
Parasite species are arranged by phylum, class,
order and family and are presented in
alphabetical order, followed by information on
h o s t / l o c a l i t y r e c o r d s , s i t e o f
infection/infestation, stage of development,
habitat (freshwater/marine) and references
(between parentheses, in chronological order).
When the taxonomic status of a parasite
species required clarification, the section
Notes is included with the relevant
bibliographic references.
The names of host species follow Froese &
Pauly (2015). The species of fishes in the host-
parasite list are arranged according to the
higher-level classification of Nelson (2006).
Parasite names were updated in agreement
with the recent literature, but inclusion in the
parasite or host lists does not necessarily imply
that authors agree with their validity.
40% of which are endemic) and Tumbes-
Chocó-Magdalena (approximately 250
species of fishes) (Anderson & Maldonado-
Ocampo, 2011; Conservation International,
2011).
According to Froese & Pouly (2015), there are
914 species of freshwater fishes in Peru,
suggesting a high diversity of fish parasites as
well. However, the literature on this subject is
highly dispersed, and numerous papers have
been published in regional or local journals
that are not indexed. Few researchers have
compiled this information, and all have
focused on marine fish hosts (Tantaleán et al.,
1982, 1985; Luque, 1991; Luque et al., 1991;
Tantaleán & Huiza, 1994). More recently,
Luque & Poulin (2007) counted 146 and 485
freshwater and marine parasite-host
associations from 49 and 98 freshwater and
marine fishes, respectively.
Here, we provide a checklist of metazoan
parasites that are associated with both marine
and freshwater fishes from Peru, including
detailed information on their locality, habitat,
site of infection/infestation and life-cycle
stage. The information is presented as parasite-
host and host-parasite lists. We have attempted
to include information from all published
reports.
The database was compiled from an extensive
bibliographical review of metazoan parasites
reported from fishes in Peruvian waters using
two approaches. First, a search was performed
through the Zoological Records, Biological
Abstracts and Helminthological Abstracts,
Web of Knowledge, Google Scholar, Aquatic
Sciences and Fisheries Abstracts, Biological
and Agricultural Index Plus and Scopus, using
a combination of several key words. Second,
monographs and articles published in Spanish

MATERIAL AND METHODS
Metazoan Parasites of Fishes from Peru
304
A total of 1015 parasite-host associations were
found, including 612 named species (including
unidentified ones) of metazoan parasites
belonging to the following taxa: Monogenea
(175), Cestoda (140), Trematoda (115),
C r u s t a c e a ( 9 9 ) , N e m a t o d a ( 4 9 ) ,
Acanthocephala (16), Myxozoa (16) and
Annelida (2). Reports of parasites that were not
identified to the species level constituted 182
of the 612 (30%) species included (Table 1).
Three-hundred ninety-one species were
marine parasites, 217 were freshwater and 4
species were recorded in the both habitats
(Table 2). A total of 207 (113 marine, 94
freshwater) species of fishes from Peru have
been reported as hosts of metazoan parasites.
O f t h em , 1 7 4 ar e t e le o s ts , 3 1 a re
elasmobranchs and 2 are unspecified host
species. The fish species with the highest
number of parasites were the marine fishes
Merluccius gayi peruanus Ginsburg, 1954
(32), followed by Paralonchurus peruanus
(Steindachner, 1875) (31), Scomber japonicus
Houttuyn, 1782 (31), Sciaena deliciosa
(Tschudi, 1846) (29) and Stellifer minor
(Tschudi, 1846) (28). The freshwater fishes
with the most parasite records were
Pseudoplatystoma fasciatum (Linnaeus, 1766)
(11) and Arapaima gigas (Schinz, 1822),
Potamotrygon motoro (Müller & Henle,
1841), Orestias luteus Valenciennes, 1846
(each with 9 reports). Parasites with the most
reports were the larval stage of the
diphyllobothriidean Adenocephalus pacificus
Nybelin, 1931 (19), larvae of Anisakis sp. (18),
larvae of Contracaecum sp. (17) and adults and
larvae of the trypanorhynch cestode
Lacistorhynchus tenuis (16), all of which are
parasitic in marine fishes, except for
Contracaecum sp., which is parasitic in
freshwater and marine fish. The localities with
the highest number of records were Lima
(285), Loreto (148) and La Libertad (120).

Though many parasites have been reported
from fish in Peru, these reports likely represent
only a small fraction of the true richness of
parasite species from Peruvian fishes. There
are 1599 known Peruvian fish species (Froese
& Pauly, 2015), of which 189, i.e., less than
1/8, have parasitological records. This is a
negligible increase compared with the
proportion of 1/10 calculated by Luque &
Poulin (2007) almost 10 years ago. The current
scenario for fish parasite research in Peru can
be extended to other parts of the world and to
other groups of vertebrates as parasite hosts
(Madhavi, 2011; Hernández-Orts et al., 2015;
Tavakol et al., 2015); thus, any estimates of
parasite diversity are questionable (Poulin,
2014). A steadily decreasing number of
taxonomic experts (and their uneven
distribution) makes the situation even worse
(Brooks & Hoberg, 2000).
Despite the greater richness of freshwater
fishes in Peru compared to marine species, few
parasitological surveys have focused on the
fishes inhabiting Peru's large hydrological
DISCUSSION drainages. Recently, taxonomical studies have
been performed on the parasites of fishes from
t h e P e r u v i a n A m a z o n u s i n g b o t h
morphological and molecular approaches,
including on cestodes (de Chambrier et al.,
2015a,b), monogeneans (Mendoza-Palmero et
al., 2015) and acanthocephalans (Lisitsyna et
al., 2015). However, our knowledge of the
parasite fauna of these fishes is still far from
complete, and most of the diversity remains
untouched.
Although Peru is a megadiverse country, it was
not included as a fish parasite hotspot by Luque
& Poulin (2007) because of the low number of
studies compared to other Latin American
countries such as Brazil, Mexico and Puerto
Rico.
The marine fishes M. gayi peruanus, S.
japonicus, P. peruanus, S. deliciosa, S. minor
and T. murphyi presented the highest richness
of parasites. Because Peru is one of the
foremost Latin fishing nations, based mainly
on its large coast that is rich in fish species that
are used as basic food supplies in several
regions of the country (Ibarra et al., 2000), it is
not su rprising tha t the majority of
Neotropical Helminthology. Vol. 10, Nº2, jul-dic 2016 Metazoan Parasites of Fishes from Peru

which exhibit narrow host specificity, a highly
specialized attachment apparatus and a direct
life-cycle associated with numerous fish hosts
(Whittington 1998; Cribb et al., 2002; Poulin,
2002); or (2) directed studies on this parasite
group performed by a single or few research
teams, which is pronounced at a local scale
(Poulin & Morand, 2004). The much lower
number of monogeneans reported from Chile
(43 species) compared to Peru (175 species)
may reflect a lower number of studies in this
country, which is aggravated by the lack of
taxonomic experts (Muñoz & Olmos, 2007).
The second most species-richest group was the
cestodes. Twelve of the 20 known orders of
tapeworms (assuming that Proteocephalidea is
not included in the Onchoproteocephalidea;
see Alves et al., 2015a) have been reported
from Peruvian fishes, including the still
artificial Tetraphyllidea, which was
previously a catch-all group and is now split
into several new orders (Caira et al., 2014). To
date, the proteocephalideans presented the
highest richness of cestode species (46 spp.)
and mainly parasitize catfishes (Siluriformes)
from the Peruvian Amazon (de Chambrier et
al., 2006, 2015a,b).
Concerning the trematodes, the diversity of
species found in Peru, Brazil and Chile (115,
247 and 86 species, respectively) (present
study; Kohn et al., 2007; Muñoz & Olmos,
2008) is highest in Brazil but may be
considered to be rather low. The Digenea,
which is the biggest trematode group to date, is
also the largest taxon of endoparasites (Olson
et al., 2003), mostly due to the extraordinary
diversification in its sites of infection, life
cycles and modes of feeding (Cribb et al.,
2002). Thus, the large number of fishes known
from Peruvian waters should serve either as
definitive or intermediate hosts for these
organisms. Limited information is available on
metacercariae in freshwater fishes.
The nematodes were represented by 49
parasitological studies focus on important
fishery species. Moreover, there is financial
support for parasitological studies on species
that have economic importance, such as those
performed by Iannacone et al. (2009a-c), who
studied the parasitic fauna of A. scapularis, P.
humeralis and M. cephalus.
The fauna of Chilean fishes is very similar to
Peru in that its largest number of parasites were
reported from Sebastes oculatus Valenciennes,
1833 (= Sebastes capensis), M. gayi gayi, T.
murphyi and C. gilberti (Muñoz & Olmos,
2007, 2008). This similarity is not surprising,
given the countries' obvious spatial proximity
and their sharing of the Humboldt Current
System, which is known for its richness of
nutrients and biodiversity, including parasites
and fishes. Therefore, the differences in the
number of hosts studied in Peru (206 species)
and Chile (approximately 100 species) seems
to arise from a reduced number of studies
undertaken in the latter country and not by a
smaller number of potential hosts; 1167 fish
species are estimated to inhabit the
corresponding area in the Humboldt Current
System (Muñoz & Olmos, 2007; 2008;
Miloslavich et al., 2011).
In the present study, the greatest richness of
parasites was registered among monogeneans
(175) and cestodes (140), in contrast to the
observations in freshwater fishes in Mexico by
Salgado-Maldonado (2013), where nematodes
and trematodes are the dominant group of
parasites. In Chile, the most common fish
parasites are crustaceans and trematodes
(Muñoz & Olmos, 2007; 2008). These
differences, especially between Peru and
Chile, which are similar in their composition of
marine fishes, can be caused by the different
foci of studies carried out by some research
teams (Poulin & Morand, 2004).
The fact that monogeneans constitute the
largest number of species could be a result of
two factors: (1) the biology of these organisms,

species, almost one third of the total compiled
by Luque et al. (2011), who listed 140 named
and 75 unidentified species in fishes from
Brazil, but this number is similar to that
reported from Chile (i.e., 22 named and 17
unidentified species) (Muñoz & Olmos, 2008).
Poulin (2014) stated that variation in the
parasitic fauna among closely related
geographic areas is mainly driven by the
distribution of potential hosts. Therefore, the
similarity between the nematode species in
Peru and Chile might be explained by their
similar fish fauna. In contrast, the Brazilian
coastline is the largest in South America; thus,
a higher number of nematode species is
expected from the numerous potential hosts.
Ot her groups of parasit es, such as
Acanthocephala, Hirudinea and Myxozoa,
were represented by only a few species, which
corresponds to the situation in Chile (Muñoz &
Olmo, 2007; 2008).
The present account confirms that Peru has one
of the biggest fish parasite fauna in South
America but also indicates that much more
effort is necessary to grasp its true diversity
and might serve as a guide for further studies
on th is subject. A na lyses based on
morphological and molecular data (integrative
taxonomy) are pending to enrich our
knowledge of these parasites either to search
for cryptic species and their geographical
distributions or to link larval stages to their
respective adult forms.
