Resumen:
This study presents new geographical distribution records for the macroparasites of the marine Odontesthes nigricans (Richardson, 1848) (89wild specimens), and for the freshwater silversides Odontesthes bonariensis (Valenciennes, 1835) (43 wild and 108 cultured specimens), andOdontesthes hatcheri (Eigenmann, 1909) (183 wild specimens) from Argentina. These data represent records of 12 parasite taxa for O. nigricans,8 for O. bonariensis, and 19 for O. hatcheri, which include digeneans, monogeneans, cestodes, nematodes, acantocephalans, mollusks, copepods,and branchiurans. For cultured O. bonariensis, the records of the present study correspond to the first reports of parasites in the literature. Thiswork provides also data on site of infection, parasite load, and development stages for the parasite species.All Rights Reserved © 2016 Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Instituto de Biología.
