Abstract:

Recently in Cameroon, two species belonging to Quadriacanthus: Q. anaspidoglanii Akoumba, Tombi & Bilong Bilong, 2017 and Q. euzeti Nack, Pariselle & Bilong Bilong, 2016 have been recorded on gill filaments of Notoglanidium macrostoma (Siluriformes, Claroteidae) in the Memou’ou River (Nyong Basin) and Papyrocranus afer (Osteoglossiformes, Notopteridae) in Lake Ossa, respectively. These records have been considered the result of lateral transfers from Clariidae to a Claroteidae host for the first case (parasitism of N. macrostoma by Q. anaspidoglanii) and from Clariidae or Bagridae to a Notopteridae host for the second (parasitism of P. afer by Q. euzeti). In this paper, the investigation of interspecific relationships among Quadriacanthus spp. parasitizing Clariidae, Bagridae, Claroteidae and Notopteridae in Cameroon resulted in the record of Q. anaspidoglanii from N. macrostoma, Q. euzeti from P. afer, a new record of Q. levequei Birgi, 1988 from Clarias jaensis in the Nyong River, and the description of Q. barombiensis n. sp. from Clarias maclareni in Lake Barombi Mbo. The newly identified species is characterized by having an accessory piece ending in one small hook and the median expansion of its dorsal bar with two filaments. Phylogenetic analysis based on 28S rDNA sequences confirms that the Quadriacanthus spp. parasitizing gill filaments of non-clariid hosts in Cameroon originate from lateral transfers from clariid fishes, and that Clariidae are ancestral hosts of these monogenean species.

Abstract:

The phylogenetic position of the Southeast Asian catfish genus Encheloclarias Myers, 1937 within the family Clariidae is inferred herein using three mitochondrial nucleotide markers: cytochrome b, cytochrome oxidase subunit I, and 16S rRNA genes. We found that Encheloclarias is neither exclusively related to the African taxa having extended neural spines posterior to the dorsal fin (Encheloclarias shares with some of these taxa the presence of an adipose fin, as opposed to absent in all other clariid taxa) nor to the Asian species of the genus Clarias Scopoli, 1777. Encheloclarias is hypothesized to be the sister group of all other clariids, except Horaglanis Menon, 1951. The inferred position of Encheloclarias confirms that the adipose fin in this genus has an evolutionary origin independent to that of the adipose fin found in some African clariids. Encheloclarias is not only ecologically remarkable, being adapted to acidic peat swamps in Southeast Asia, but it is also an ancient lineage sheltering in these habitats. However, the precise timing of the colonization of peat swamps by Encheloclarias remains to be investigated. The phylogenetic position of Encheloclarias further underscores the importance of studying and protecting the remaining peat swamp habitats in Southeast Asia and their distinctive aquatic fauna.

Abstract:

AbstractThe osteological and myological structures of the cephalic region and pectoral girdle of the Asiatic catfish Heteropneustes fossilis are described and compared with those of several other catfishes, as the foundation for an analysis on the phylogenetic relationships of the genus Heteropneustes. Our observation and comparisons support a close relationship between Heteropneustes and the clariid catfishes. More specifically, the present study supports De Pinna's 1993 study, according to which Horaglanis and Uegitglanis, two genera commonly included in the family Clariidae, are the successive sister-groups of a monophyletic clade composed by the genus Heteropneustes and the remaining clariid genera.

Abstract:

The study determined the physical and nutritional losses caused by pests on selected smoked fish families in 3 agricultural zones of Benue state. The selected fish families were Clariidae, Protopteridae, Characidae and Mormyridae and were weighed before and after 3 months storage at the end of each quarter of the year for 2 years and were subjected to proximate analysis. In zone A, Claridae, Protopteridae, Characidae and mormyridae had weight loss of 39.00%, 32.00%, 22.00% and 15.00% respectively. In zone B Clariidae, Protopteridae, Characidae and mormyridae had 43.00, 35.50, 23.50 and 18.00% respectively while in zone C Clariidae, Protopteridae, Characidae and mormyridae had percentage weight losses of 43.00, 35.50, 25.00 and 17.50% respectively. There was no significant difference in weight loss to insect infestation for each family across the agricultural zones. For nutritional composition, infested Clariidae, Protopteridae, Characidae and mormyridae had lower protein and crude fat but higher ash and moisture contents. There was an increase in crude fibre for infested Clariidae and Characidae while uninfested and infested had Protopteridae and Mormyridae had no crude fibre. There were no significant difference, (P  0.05) in the moisture and protein. The selected fish samples had weight loss and nutritional loss in all the agricultural zones of Benue state. In conclusion smoked fish are expected loss both physical and nutritional quantity and quality if infested. The study recommended that the smoked fish should be properly stored and handled to prevent pest infestation in order to help maintain the physical and nutritional quantity and quality. <em><strong> </strong></em>

Abstract:

Accessory respiratory organs (AROs) are a group of anatomical structures found in fish, which support the gills and skin in the process of oxygen uptake. AROs are found in many fish taxa and differ significantly, but in the suborder Anabantoidei, which has a labyrinth organ (LO), and the family Clariidae, which has a dendritic organ (DO), these structures are found in the suprabranchial cavity (SBC). In this study, the SBC walls, AROs, and gills were studied in anabantoid (Betta splendens, Ctenopoma acutirostre, Helostoma temminckii) and clariid (Clarias angolensis, Clarias batrachus) fishes. The histological structure of the investigated organs was partially similar, especially in relation to their connective tissue core; however, there were noticeable differences in the epithelial layer. There were no significant species-specific differences in the structure of the AROs within the two taxa, but the SBC walls had diversified structures, depending on the observed location. The observed differences between species suggest that the remarkable physiological and morphological plasticity of the five investigated species can be associated with structural variety within their AROs. Furthermore, based on the observed histology of the SBC walls, it is reasonable to conclude that this structure participates in the process of gas exchange, not only in clariid fish but also in anabantoids.

Abstract:

The demand for fish as a source of protein is on the increase. However, sustainable productivity by fish farmers is constrained by parasitic infections. Thus, an investigation was conducted on the prevalence of helminth parasites in some commercially important fish species of River Anambra, Nigeria. A total of 521 fishes belonging to 6 families (Claroteidae, Synodontidae, Mormyridae, Osteoglossidae, Bagridae, and Clariidae) and 20 species caught with hooks, nets, and local traps were examined using standard parasitological techniques. The overall prevalence was 23.80%. Fish samples belonging to 6 families had the following prevalence of infection: Bagridae (0.00%), Clariidae (2.11 %), Claroteidae (1.53%), Mormyridae (0.0%), Osteoglossidae (14.97%) and Synodontidae (5.18%). Helminth parasites recovered were: Weyonia species (4.65%), Weyonia youdeowii (15.97%), Weyonia synodontis (3.33%), Sandonella sandoni (37.41%), Polyonchobothrium clarias (17.98 %), Plerocercoid larva (13.33%) and unidentified cestode (35.47%) (Cestoda); Emoleptalea species (4.65%) (Trematoda); Procamallanus laeviconchus (2.72%), Dujardinascaris species (1.36%), Spirocamallanus species (3.99%) (Nematoda); Neoechinorhynchus species (24.61%), Tenuisentis niloticus (34.62%) and unidentified acanthocephalan (6.25%) (Acanthocephala). Weyonia species, Weyonia youdeoweii, and W. synodontis were recovered from synodontids only. Acanthocephalan, cestodes, nematodes and trematodes were found in decreasing order of abundance. The presence of trematode Emoleptalea sp in Clarias gariepinus is a new host record of the parasite for the geographical area.

Abstract:

Fish gut content analyses refer to methods of analyzing fish diet through assessment of materials found in dissected fish stomach. This work was conducted to determine the gut content, most frequently consumed prey and viscerosomatic index of the Clariidae species found in riverine area in south western Nigeria. The study spanned for six months (December, 2020 to May, 2021). Fish samples were examined fresh using frequency of occurrence, number and degree of fullness to examine the guts. Out of the 99 specimens collected in total, 45.83% and 54.17% of Clarias gariepinus, had ¼ full stomachs and half full stomachs respectively; 60%, 36.67%, 3.33% of Clarias jaensis had ¼ full, half full and ¾ full stomachs stomachs respectively, 63.33% and 36.67% of Clarias anguillaris had ¼ full and half full stomachs respectively while Clarias agboyiensis and Clarias pachynema species had similar stomach fullness of 33.33% for ¼ fullness and 66.67% for half fullness with none of the species having empty nor 100% full stomachs. Result also showed that the examined species are indiscriminate feeders; feeding on both plants and animals. The viscerosomatic index showed that the species had more flesh than carcass, giving an inference that the species have reasonable nutritional value and FCR. In conclusion, the Clariidae species were found to be omnivores and as such are to be provided with more natural materials in their environment for proper growth.

Abstract:

Located in the central region of northern Nigeria, the Jos Plateau covers approximately 9,400 km² with an average altitude of 1,280 m and constitutes a unique terrestrial ecoregion known as the Jos Plateau forest-grassland mosaic. The biota of the Jos Plateau include endemic elements, but very limited information is available on its ichthyofauna. This is despite the fact that the ancient plateau contributes to several large rivers spanning multiple major drainage systems including the Niger and Benue Rivers, and Lake Chad. This study provides the first species list for the fishes of the Jos Plateau based mainly on 175 DNA barcoded museum voucher specimens representing 20 species, and another three species without a DNA barcode. In total, 23 species from eight families and 17 genera were collected from the Jos Plateau including five putatively new species, four in the family Cyprinidae and one in the Clariidae. With ten species, the Cyprinidae is the most diverse fish family on the Jos Plateau, followed by Clariidae and Cichlidae, each with three species. The study also provides data on species distribution and habitat parameters including information on water chemistry that strongly suggests that selected water bodies are heavily impacted by anthropogenic activities. Urgent management steps are required to preserve the unique and diverse fish communities of the Jos Plateau and their habitats.

Abstract:

In the Upper Congo Basin, there are few records of monopisthocotylan parasites from clariids. More surveys of clariid fishes can lead to the discovery of multiple monopisthocotylan species that are new to the region or new to science. We aimed to investigate the monopisthocotylan parasite fauna belonging to Quadriacanthus of five clariid fishes in the Upper Congo Basin by (i) inventorying the species composition and providing the description of new species when necessary, and (ii) analysing their infection parameters. Clarias ngamensis, C. stappersii, C. buthupogon, C. gariepinus and C. theodorae were purchased from fishermen in the Lufira, Lubumbashi and Kafubu rivers in the Upper Congo Basin. Monopisthocotylans were mounted on glass slides with ammonium picrate-glycerin for identification based on morphological analysis of genital and haptoral sclerotised parts. Eight species, namely Q. aegypticus, Q. allobychowskiella, Q. amakaliae, Q. domatanai, Q. halajiani, Q. kalomboi n. sp., Q. bassocki n. sp. and Q. shigoleyae n. sp. are reported. The most prevalent parasite species was Q. amakaliae on C. stappersii (prevalence 60%) with a mean infection intensity of 9.8 ± 7.7. We report C. stappersii and C. buthupogon as new hosts for species of Quadriacanthus as well as three new parasite species for science and new localities for the first five parasite species mentioned above. The new records and the description of Q. kalomboi n. sp., Q. bassocki n. sp. and Q. shigoleyae n. sp. increase the knowledge of the diversity of monopisthocotylans in this region.

Full text

Abstract:

Clarias macrocephalus are continuous, facultative air breathers. Individuals (7.6–20.9 g) survived more than 25 days in normoxic water without surface access. Buoyancy decreased and water-breathing frequency increased when surface access was denied, but growth rate and the frequency of air-breathing attempts did not change. We examined air-breathing and water-breathing frequency in shallow (60 cm) and deep (235 cm) water under normoxic (8.0 mg O2∙L−1) and hypoxic (0.3, 0.7, 1.2, and 2.0 mg O2∙L−1) conditions to examine how changes in the travel costs of breathing affected the use of each respiratory mode. Air-breathing and water-breathing frequency increased as dissolved oxygen decreased from 8.0 to 2.0 mg O2∙L−1. Below this level air breathing continued to increase, but water breathing dropped sharply. At higher levels of dissolved oxygen (8.0 and 2.0 mg O2∙L−1), fish in deep water had lower air-breathing and higher water-breathing frequencies than fish in shallow water. Vertical distance travelled and time spent in air breathing increased with increasing depth and with decreasing level of dissolved oxygen. These results support the hypotheses that travel is a significant cost of aerial respiration and that fish respond to increases in this cost by decreasing their use of atmospheric oxygen when dissolved oxygen concentration permits them to do so.

Abstract:

Abstract Within Enugu and Anambra States, Nigeria, identification of fishes has been based on morphological traits and do not account for existing biodiversity. For DNA barcoding, assessment of biodiversity, conservation and fishery management, 44 fish sampled from Enugu and Anambra States were isolated, amplified and sequenced with mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI). Twenty groups clustering at 100% bootstrap value including monophyletic ones were identified. The phylogenetic diversity (PD) ranged from 0.0397 (Synodontis obesus) to 0.2147 (Parachanna obscura). The highest percentage of genetic distance based on Kimura 2-parameter was 37.00 ± 0.0400. Intergeneric distances ranged from 15.8000 to 37.0000%. Congeneric distances were 6.9000 ± 0.0140–28.1000 ± 0.0380, with Synodontis as the existing synonymous genus. Confamilial distances in percentage were 16.0000 ± 0.0140 and 25.7000 ± 0.0300. Forty-two haplotypes and haplotype diversity of 0.9990 ± 0.0003 were detected. Nucleotide diversity was 0.7372, while Fu and Li’s D* test statistic was 2.1743 (P < 0.02). Tajima’s D was 0.2424 (P > 0.10) and nucleotide frequencies were C (17.70%), T (29.40%), A (24.82%), G (18.04%) and A + T (54.22%). Transitional mutations were more than transversions. Twenty species (99–100%) were identified with the e-value, maximum coverage and bit-score of 1e−43, 99–100 and 185–1194, respectively. Seventeen genera and 12 families were found and Clariidae (n = 14) was the most dominant among other families. The fish species resolution, diversity assessment and phylogenetic relationships were successfully obtained with the COI marker. Clariidae had the highest number of genera and families. Phylogenetic diversity analysis identified Parachanna obscura as the most evolutionarily divergent one. This study will contribute to fishery management, and conservation of freshwater fishes in Enugu and Anambra States, Nigeria.

<strong>Résumé</strong> L’étude sur l’ichtyofaune dans deux rivières forestières Yoko et Biaro à Ubundu de septembre 2008 à août 2009, avait pour but de caractériser les peuplements des poissons  et déterminer les facteurs responsables de leur répartition spatio-temporelle. Plusieurs techniques ont été utilisées pour la récolte des poissons : filets maillants,  palangres et nasses. La caractérisation des habitats a été faite selon une fiche de suivi hydromorphologique en précisant les profils transversaux des rivières tous les 50 m pour chacune des 8 stations sélectionnées; ainsi, 1533 spécimens de poissons appartenant à 59 espèces, 42 genres et 15 familles ont été récoltés. Les familles des Clariidae (C. buthupogon 32,7 %), Cyprinidae (B. miolepis 20,8 %), Mormyridae (S. corneti 13,9 %), Cichlidae (H. fasciatus 12,4 %), Distichodontidae (I. besse congolensis 8,1 %), Characidae (B. boulengeri 7,3 %), sont relativement abondantes dans les captures et les plus diversifiés avec respectivement : 5, 10, 7, 8, 5 et 9 espèces chacune. Les indices de diversité de Shannon (≥1,79), de Simpson (≥0,73) et d’équitabilité (≥ 0,66) calculés par station confirment que le milieu considéré est particulièrement riche en biodiversité et plus équilibré en ichtyo biodiversité. Les Analyses en Composantes Principales (ACP), l’Analyse Factorielle des Correspondances (AFC) et l’Analyse Canonique des Correspondances (ACC) montrent que, les Malapteruridae, Characidae, Cichlidae, Mormyridae et Notopteridae sont fortement liées à la station Biaro 2 et celles des Distichodontidae, Clariidae, Mastacembelidae et Claroteidae à la station Yoko 4 suite à la corrélation positive observée entre les variables (végétation, température de l’eau, vitesse de l’eau, profondeur de l’eau, oxygène dissous et nature des substrats). Ceci montre que, les variables environnementales (biotiques et abiotiques) agissent de façon simultanée dans la répartition spatiale des peuplements ichtyologiques.   <strong>Abstract</strong> The study of Ichthyofauna in two forest rivers Yoko and Biaro at Ubundu from September 2008 to August 2009 aimed at characterizing fish stands and determine the factors responsible for their spatio-temporal distribution. Several techniques were used for fish harvesting: gillnets, longlines and nass. Habitat characterization was based on a hydromorphological tracking sheet, specifying the river-to-channel profiles every 50 m for each of the 8 selected stations; thus, 1533 specimens of fish belonging to 59 species, 42 genera and 15 families were harvested. The families Clariidae (C. buthupogon 32.7 %), Cyprinidae (B. miolepis 20.8 %), Mormyridae (S. corneti 13.9 %), Cichlidae (H. fasciatus 12.4 %), Distichodontidae (I. besse congolensis  8.1 %), Characidae (B. boulengeri 7.3%), are relatively abundant in catches and the most diversified with respectively: 5, 10, 7, 8, 5 and 9 species each. The diversity indices of Shannon (≥1.79), Simpson (≥0.73), and evenness (≥0.66) calculated by station confirm that the environment is particularly rich in biodiversity and more balanced in ichtyo biodiversity. The Principal Component Analysis (PCA), the Factorial Correspondence Analysis (FCA) and the Canonical Correspondence Analysis (CCA) show that Malapteruridae, Characidae, Cichlidae, Mormyridae and Notopteridae are strongly linked to the Biaro 2 station and those of the Distichodontidae, Clariidae, Mastacembelidae and Claroteidae to Yoko 4 station following the positive correlation observed between variables (vegetation, water temperature, water velocity, water depth, dissolved oxygen, and nature of substrates). This shows that environmental variables (biotic and abiotic) act simultaneously in the spatial distribution of fish communities.
