Abstract

In 140 specimens of five carangid species were captured in Playa Las Barrancas and El Cabezo Reef, Veracruz Reef System National Park, Veracruz State, Southern Gulf of Mexico:Caranx crysos (n=51), Caranx hippos (n=18), Chloroscombrus chrysurus (n=28), Oligoplites saurus (n=24) and Trachinotus carolinus (n=19), a total of 44 helminth species were recovered, distributed as follows: 18 digeneans (17 adults, and 1 metacercaria), 12 monogeneans, 9 nematodes (6 adults, and 3 larvae), 4 cestodes (all larvae), and 1 acanthocephalan (juvenile). Parasite of helminths species with the highest prevalence in five communities were Pseudobicotylophora atlantica and Amphipolycotyle chloroscombrus, while species with mean intensity were Hurleytrema catarinensis; and the nematode Hysterothylacium sp., was registered in all five communities.
