Microcotyle
''Microcotyle'' is a genus which belongs to the phylum Platyhelminthes and Class (biology), class Monogenea. Species of ''Microcotyle'' are ectoparasites that affect their host by attaching themselves as larvae on the gills of the fish and grow into adult stage. This larval stage is called oncomiracidium, and is characterized as free swimming and ciliated. Species of ''Microcotyle'' have only one host in their entire life cycle. Different species of ''Microcotyle'' inhabit marine and freshwater and they can also infect different species of fishes. They are uniquely characterized by their haptor having a lot of tiny clamps on the lateral margins. Although not really known to cause that much damage in marine wildlife, some of them are reported to cause agricultural problems like ''Microcotyle sebastis'' as an example. ''Microcotyle sebastis'' commonly affects ''Sebastes schlegeli'', a maricultured fish in Korea.Kim, Ki. H, and Eun. Lee, and Se. Kwon, and Jae. Cho. (2001). Treatment ...

Anchoromicrocotylinae
Anchoromicrocotylinae is a subfamily of flatworms within the family Microcotylidae and class Monogenea. This subfamily was created by Bravo-Hollis in 1981, to accommodate Monogeneans recovered from the gills of ''Atractoscion nobilis'' (Sciaenidae) (synonym of ''Cynoscion nobilis '') caught off California. In the same work, Bravo-Hollis in 1981 created the new genus ''Anchoromicrocotyle '' and amended the diagnosis of the family Microcotylidae.Bravo-Hollis, M. (1981). Helmintos de peces del Pacífico mexicano XXXVI. Sobre un género y subfamilia nuevos de la familia Microcotylidae Taschenberg, 1879. Emend. Anales del Instituto de Ciencias del Mar y Limnología, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (Vol. 8, pp. 305-314). Members of Anchoromicrocotylinae differ from other Microcotylidae by the presence of a larval organ and larval hooks and the structure of the genital complex. Morphology Members of Anchoromicrocotylinae are characterized by a symmetric haptor, with a sharp en ...

Sparicotyle Chrysophrii
''Sparicotyle chrysophrii'' is a species of monogenean, parasitic on the gills of the marine fish. It belongs to the family Microcotylidae. Its type-host is the gilt-head seabream ('' Sparus aurata''). The species was described by Van Beneden & Hesse in 1863 under the name ''Microcotyle chrysophrii'' Van Beneden, P. J., & Hesse, C. E. (1863). Second Appendice au Mémoire sur les Bdellodes et les Trématodes: Mémoire présenté à l'Académie Royale de Belgique. and transferred to the genus ''Sparicotyle'' (Figure 2-4) by Mamaev in 1984. Its morphology has been described in 2010 from specimens collected off Corsica by Antonelli et al. It is ubiquitous and abundant in the aquatic environment, isolated from fish as ectoparasite on gill filaments. ''S. chrysophrii'' is specific but not limited to the gilt-head seabream (''Sparus aurata''), causing mortalities when contacted at high prevalence (61.5%) in fish cages. It has been suggested that wild fish, mostly sparids that aggregate ...

Microcotyle Pomacanthi
''Microcotyle pomacanthi'' is a species of monogenean, parasitic on the gills of a marine fish. It belongs to the family Microcotylidae.MacCallum, 1915. Notes on the genus ''Microcotyle'' III. Zoologische Jahrbücher. Abteilung für Systematik, Geographie und Biologie der Tiere. 38, 71-7PDF Taxonomy ''Microcotyle pomacanthi'' was described and illustrated based on specimens recovered from the gills of fishes from different genera and belonging to distinct families, from the New York Aquarium, as ''Microcotyle pomocanthi''. In the original description, MacCallum stated that the specimens were so much alike and he hesitated to describe them as separate species. He considered that describing them under one name would point out the remarkable similarities. Dillon & Hargis redescribed and illustrated ''Microcotyle pomacanthi'' from the gills of the grass porgy ''Calamus arctifrons'' (Sparidae) off Florida, noted slight differences in the atrial spines and suggested that further study m ...

World Register Of Marine Species
The World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS) is a taxonomic database that aims to provide an authoritative and comprehensive catalogue and list of names of marine organisms. Content The content of the registry is edited and maintained by scientific specialists on each group of organism. These taxonomists control the quality of the information, which is gathered from the primary scientific literature as well as from some external regional and taxon-specific databases. WoRMS maintains valid names of all marine organisms, but also provides information on synonyms and invalid names. It is an ongoing task to maintain the registry, since new species are constantly being discovered and described by scientists; in addition, the nomenclature and taxonomy of existing species is often corrected or changed as new research is constantly being published. Subsets of WoRMS content are made available, and can have separate badging and their own home/launch pages, as "subregisters", such as th ...

(2005). Monogenea Polyopisthocotylea (ectoparasitic flukes). In K. Rohde (Ed.), Marine Parasitology (pp. 55-63): CSIRO, Collingwood, Australia & CABI, Oxon, UK. Classification There are only two subclasses in the class Monogenea: * Monopisthocotylea. The name means "a single posterior sucker" - the attachment organ (the haptor) is simple. * Polyopisthocotylea. The name means "several posterior suckers" - the attachment organ (the haptor) is complex, with several clamps or suckers. The subclass Polyopisthocotylea contains the four following orders: * Order Chimaericolidea * Order Diclybothriidea * Order Lagarocotylidea * Order Mazocraeidea * Order Polystomatidea Ex ...
