| Description | Our current research concerning to monogeneans can by divided into the following five project lines: (1) Structural and molecular diversity of Haliotrema-like dactylogyrids parasitizing goatfishes (Mulludae) of New Caledonia. (2) Structural and molecular diversity of monogeneans parasitizing African tetras (Alestidae). (3) Structural and molecular diversity of monogeneans parasitizing African catfishes. (4) Species composition and structural diversity of monogeneans parasitizing the main African cichlid lineages. (5) Recently we examined five specimens of the African snake fish, Erpetoichthys calabaricus, with severe infestation of Macrogyrodactylus polyptery on the skin and fins. |
