RESUMO

A parasitological investigation of Cyprinella venusta and Notropis cf. stramineus sampled in Texas, USA, in the Guadalupe River, revealed the presence of Gyrodactylus crysoleucas Mizelle and Kritsky, 1967 on C. venusta, and Gyrodactylus mediotorus King, Marcogliese, Forest, McLaughlin & Bentzen, 2013 on both fish species. This represents new leuscicid fish hosts and locality records for these two gyrodactylids. Gyrodactylus crysoleucas previously identified from both non-native Californian Notemigonus crysoleucas and from farmed stocks in Minnesota demonstrated intraspecific variability in terms of morphology and genetics as a local adaptation associated with isolation by distance. Results further confirmed G. crysoleucas as alien in the western USA and suggested host-switching involving C. venusta and N. crysoleucas. Conservative morphology and genetics on the part of G. mediotorus from C. venusta and N. cf. stramineus (Guadalupe River) was observed, while higher genetic divergence in the ITS sequences associated with morphological discrepancy was found between the studied G. mediotorus specimens and those of Notropis hudsonius than when considering the parasites of Notropis texanus. The separation of G. mediotorus into geographical subgroups may indicate ongoing speciation linked to the Pleistocene glaciations in North America, and to hydrographic barriers that facilitated separate evolutionary paths leading to speciation. We suggest that deep investigations of Gyrodactylus populations will help to understand the speciation of these parasites and their adaptation to Nearctic fish hosts.


Title: Variation intraspécifique chez Gyrodactylus mediotorus et G. crysoleucas (Gyrodactylidae), parasites de ménés néarctiques (Leuciscidae) : preuves d'une spéciation en cours, d'un changement d'hôte et d'une translocation de parasites. Abstract: Une enquête parasitologique sur Cyprinella venusta et Notropis cf. stramineus échantillonnés au Texas, États-Unis, dans la rivière Guadalupe, a révélé la présence de Gyrodactylus crysoleucas Mizelle et Kritsky, 1967 sur C. venusta, et de Gyrodactylus mediotorus King, Marcogliese, Forest, McLaughlin & Bentzen, 2013 sur les deux espèces de poissons. Ceci représente de nouveaux poissons Leuciscidae hôtes et des nouvelles localités pour ces deux Gyrodactylidae. Gyrodactylus crysoleucas, identifié précédemment à partir de Notemigonus crysoleucas californiens non indigènes et de stocks d'élevage du Minnesota a démontré une variabilité intraspécifique en termes de morphologie et de génétique en tant qu'adaptation locale associée à l'isolement par la distance. Les résultats ont en outre confirmé que G. crysoleucas était exotique dans l'ouest des États-Unis et ont suggéré un changement d'hôte impliquant C. venusta et N. crysoleucas. Une morphologie et une génétique conservatrices pour G. mediotorus de C. venusta et N. cf. stramineus (rivière Guadalupe) ont été observées, tandis qu'une divergence génétique plus élevée dans les séquences ITS, associée à une divergence morphologique, a été trouvée chez les spécimens étudiés de G. mediotorus et de Notropis hudsonius lorsque l'on considère les parasites de Notropis texanus. La séparation de G. mediotorus en sous-groupes géographiques peut indiquer une spéciation continue liée aux glaciations du Pléistocène en Amérique du Nord et à des barrières hydrographiques qui ont facilité des chemins évolutifs séparés menant à la spéciation. Nous suggérons que des études approfondies sur les populations de Gyrodactylus aideront à comprendre la spéciation de ces parasites et leur adaptation aux poissons hôtes néarctiques.

RESUMO

Recent collections of the Asian fish tapeworm Bothriocephalus acheilognathi in the Rio Grande have raised concern about the potential impacts on Rio Grande endemic and imperiled fishes. The objectives of this study were to determine distribution and definitive hosts of the Asian fish tapeworm within the Rio Grande drainage and to quantify occurrences and abundances. In total, 1,992 fish spanning 11 families were collected and examined for Asian fish tapeworms in the Rio Grande and the Pecos and Devils rivers. The parasite was collected from red shiners Cyprinella lutrensis, Tamaulipas shiners Notropis braytoni, sand shiners N. stramineus, river carpsuckers Carpiodes carpio, plains killifish Fundulus zebrinus, western mosquitofish Gambusia affinis, blue suckers Cycleptus elongatus, blacktail shiners Cyprinella venusta, proserpine shiners Cyprinella proserpina, and Manantial roundnose minnow Dionda argentosa, with the latter four species being new host records. Monthly collections of red shiners from Big Bend National Park exhibited prevalence levels above 15% in January-March and December and below 10% during April-June and October. With over 50% of the Rio Grande icthyofauna in Texas considered imperiled, the occurrence and pathological effects of the Asian fish tapeworm in combination with reduced water quantity and quality and increased habitat fragmentation are of concern for these taxa.

RESUMO

Bothriocephalus acheilognathi is an introduced tapeworm in North America often reported as a serious ecological threat to native fishes. In this paper, we report the first record of B. acheilognathi in the Big Bend region of the Rio Grande in Texas (known as the Río Bravo del Norte in Mexico). Identification of B. acheilognathi was confirmed by morphologic and genetic techniques (sequences of ITS2 and V4-18S rRNA genes). Its prevalence was 27% and its intensity ranged from 1 to 5 individuals in a January 2006 collection of 115 red shiners Cyprinella lutrensis. In addition, it was found in the Tamaulipas shiner Notropis braytoni, a Rio Grande endemic and a new host record. The occurrence of B. acheilognathi might have negative ecological impacts on endemic fishes in the Rio Grande. Several of the fishes that could serve as definitive hosts are of conservation concern. Its occurrence also might affect the success of reintroducing the Rio Grande silvery minnow Hybognathus amarus, which is federally listed as endangered, in this portion of the Rio Grande.
