Record: Fischthal and Kuntz 1964c | |||
Remarks: Velasquez (1975a) listed Paraplerurus sauridae as a junior synonym of Plerurus longicaudatus (Yamaguti, 1953); however, Bray (1990) considered both these names to be synonyms of Plerurus digitatus. |

Remarks: Although Overstreet (1973) synonymized the genus Brachadena Linton, 1910 with Aponurus Looss, 1907, Velasquez (1975a) considered it to be valid. |

Remarks: The synonymy is provided by Cribb et al. (1992), who reviewed the family Transversotrematidae. Velasquez (1958), initially believing this parasite to be a progenetic metacercaria, listed the site of infection as the muscles and intestine. In a study of the life cycle (Velasquez 1961b), she was able to infect Mollenesia latipinna (syn. of Poecilia latipinna ) experimentally. Transversotrema patialense has been reported to cause problems in tilapia culture on Luzon Island. Velasquez (1986a, 1988) reported that a “whirling syndrome” was associated with infections in tilapia raised in ponds at Pililia, while Palisoc (1988) noted high mortality in pond-reared fish at Cardona. |

Oreochromis mossambicus | |||
Dist.: Luzon (experimental) | |||
Record: Sirikantayakul 1985 | |||
Remarks: The life cycle of Orientocreadium batrachoides in the Philippines was elucidated experimentally by Sirikantayakul (1985), who demonstrated that the snail Lymnaea viridis served as both the first intermediate and the primary second intermediate host. A few metacercariae were also recovered from tilapia and catfish fry, and other aquatic organisms experimentally exposed to newly emerged cercariae. | |||

Remarks: Velasquez (1975a) redescribed this species based on specimens from Clarias macrocephalus. Sirikantayakul (1985) also established experimental infections in C. macrocephalus. Kabata (1985) listed many additional fish species as host to this parasite in the Philippines; however, this resulted from a misinterpretation of Velasquez (1975a), who summarized hosts reported throughout the parasite's world-wide distribution. |

Remarks: Tubangui and Francisco (1930) in an apparent lapsus calami, erroneously gave the species name of this digenean as Metadena ovata. Although specimens have also been recovered from the buccal cavity, esophagus and stomach, the intestine is the normal site of infection. |

Location: intestine | |||
Host: Anguilla marmorata | |||
Dist.: Leyte | |||
Record: Tubangui 1933b | |||
Remarks: This species was redescribed from the original specimens by Tubangui and Africa (1938) who transferred it to the genus Galactosomum. Yamaguti (1958) listed it as belonging to the genus Tubanguia Srivastava, 1935. However, Pearson (1973) noted that the single type specimen of G. anguillarum, the only species in the genus Tubanguia, had been destroyed, and as a result, the position of the genus could not be decided. He thus listed G. anguillarum (Tubangui, 1933) as species indeterminata. We follow Velasquez (1975a) in considering it a species inquirenda. It seems probable that this report involves a metacercaria occurring on the host's viscera which was accidently liberated from its cyst during dissection. |

Haplorchis pumilio is of potential zoonotic importance in the Philippines (see Velasquez 1982a). | ||||

Remarks: In the Philippines, Haplorchis yokogawai has been associated with human infections involving myocardial complications and heart failure due to blockage of coronary vessels caused by the parasite's eggs entering the circulatory system via the intestinal mucosa (see Africa 1937, 1938a; Refuerzo 1940). Human infections occur via ingestion of metacercariae in raw or inadequately cooked fish. Piscivorous birds, and dogs and cats serve as natural definitive hosts. Velasquez (1982a, 1986a), summarizes the host and geographical distribution of this zoonotically important species. The reports of Monorchotrema taikohui by Garcia (1936) and Africa et al. (1937) are referred to H. yokogawai following Africa (1937, 1938a, b) and Refuerzo (1940). | ||||

Remarks: Pearson and Ow-Yang (1982) listed Procerovum varium of Velasquez (1973a) as a synonym of P. calderoni. These authors also considered it likely that the metacercariae illustrated in figures 3 and 6 of Velasquez (1973c) were not P. calderoni. Africa (1938b) noted that this species infects dogs, cats and man in the Philippines. |

Remarks: Pearson and Ow-Yang (1982) referred Procerovum varium of Velasquez, 1973a to P. calderoni. The records of Velasquez (1966) of P. sisoni from two of the same hosts and from the same locality may thus also involve a misidentification of P. calderoni. |

Remarks: Velasquez (1974, 1977a, 1980b) listed these records under Stellantchasmus amplicaecalis. . She (Velasquez 1980b) noted that this species is of zoonotic importance, human infections having been reported from Luzon. The synonymy follows Pearson (1964) who noted that the status of S. falcatus in the Philippines was questionable. | ||||

unspecified fish (2) | |||
Dist: Luzon | |||
Records: 1. Velasquez 1975b; 2. Davy and Graham 1979 (-) | |||
Remarks: Davy and Graham (1979) in a lapsus calami, listed this species as “Carneophallus breceae.” This digenean is of zoonotic importance in the Philippines, human infections being acquired via consumption of metacercariae in freshwater shrimp ( Macrobrachium sp.) (see Velasquez 1975b, 1980b, 1988). |

Remarks: Williams and Beverley-Burton (1989) redescribed the adults of this species from Heron Island, Australia, while Whittington and Kearn (1992) described the egg, oncomiracidium and juvenile from specimens tentatively identified as E. caballeroi from the same locality. Williams and Beverley-Burton (1989) note that members of the genus Encotyllabe attach to the papillae of the host's pharynx, lower pharyngeal plate or gill arches, rather than to the gill filaments. | ||

Record: Velasquez 1982b | ||
Remarks: Velasquez (1982b) notes that the host may have been misidentified; other reports of this species have involved members of the genus Makaira. The generic position of this species is unsettled. Yamaguti (1963a) considered the genus Tristomella Guiart, 1938 a synonym of Capsala Bosc, 1811, a decision followed by Egorova (1989); however, Pozdnyakov (1990), in his synopsis of scombrid parasites, retains Tristomella. |

Records: Natividad et al. 1986b (Luzon); Bondad-Reantaso and Arthur 1989a (-), 1990 (Luzon, Mindanao) | |||
Remarks: Douëllou (1993) elevated Cichlidogyrus longicornis gravivaginus Paperna and Thurston, 1969 to specific status and regarded the only other subspecies, C. longicornus minus Dossou, 1982, as conspecific with C. l. longicornis.

Remarks: This species was introduced with the importation of tilapias (see Bondad-Reantaso and Arthur 1990). Although Kabata (1985) indicated that Cichlidogyrus sclerosus has been reported to cause severe damage to the gills of tilapia in the Philippines, we have found no published evidence supporting this conclusion. |

Remarks: Velasquez (1977a) reported that Dactylogyrus was responsible for 20% mortalities of catfish raised at a farm in Pansol, Laguna. Reports of Dactylogyrus species on Clarias spp. are likely misidentifications, as these monogeneans do not occur on members of this genus in Southeast Asia (S.L.H. Lim, Universiti Malaya, Kuala Lumpur, pers. comm.). Similarly, reports of this genus on the gills of tilapias probably involve Cichlidogyrus spp. |
