A total of 443 specimens of three redfish species (209 Sebastes fasciatus, 123 S. marinus, and 111 S. mentella), obtained from Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organization (NAFO) divisions 2H, 2J (Labrador area), 3K (Northeastern Newfoundland), 3L, 3O (Grand Banks) 3M (Flemish Cap), and 3Ps (St. Pierre Bank) during 1980–1982, was examined for metazoan parasites; 182 (87.1%) S. fasciatus, 120 (97.6%) S. marinus, and 103 (92.8%) S. mentella were infected. Seventeen species of parasites were recovered (12 from S. fasciatus, 16 from S. marinus, and 11 from S. mentella). 22 of which were new host records. Quantitative data, including prevalence and intensity of infection, are given for each parasite by host species and NAFO division. The zeogeography and host specificity of the parasites encountered in this study are discussed in relation to redfish and hypothetical stocks of Sebastes spp. are proposed based on the parasite data collected.

The first large scale study of trypanorhynch cestodes of elasmobranchs from the Persian Gulf was carried out during November to December 2007. A total of 194 elasmobranch specimens belonging to six families and 15 species was infested with the following cestodes, most representing new locality and 23 new host records: Kotorella pronosoma (Stossich, 1901), Kotorella sp. and Nybelinia spp. from the stomach, and Pterobothrium lesteri Campbell & Beveridge, 1996, Pseudogrillotia perelica (Shuler, 1938), Callitetrarhynchus gracilis Pintner, 1931, Proemotobothrium southwelli Beveridge & Campbell, 2001, Otobothrium carcharidis (Shipley & Hornell, 1906), Otobothrium sp., Halysiorhynchus macrocephalus (Shipley & Hornell, 1906), Trygonicola macropora (Shipley & Hornell, 1906), Eutetrarhynchus platycephali Palm, 2004, Eutetrarhynchus sp., Oncomegoides celatus Beveridge & Campbell, 2005, Parachristianella monomegacantha Kruse, 1959, P. indonesiensis Palm, 2004, Parachristianella sp., Pseudochristianella southwelli Campbell & Beveridge, 1990, Prochristianella macracantha Palm, 2004, Prochristianella spp. and Dollfusiella spp. from the host intestine. The most abundant trypanorhynchs were Dollfusiella that were found inseven different elasmobranch species. Pastinachus cf. sephen (Forsskål) was most species rich, with at least eight different trypanorhynch species. Highest prevalence (100%) was recorded for Pseudochristianella southwelli with a maximum intensity of 24 in Rhinobatos cf. punctifer Compagno & Randall (n=5). Within the elasmobranchs, highest prevalence (83.3%) was seen for Otobothrium carcharidis with a maximum intensity of 39 in Rhizoprionodon acutus (Rüppell). Host specificity values were recalculated for Kotorella pronosoma, Pseudogrillotia perelica, Callitetrarhynchus gracilis and Proemotobothrium southwelli.

A new species, Glyptapanteles hypermnestrae Gupta and Pereira, is described from Maharashtra, India, and comparedwith closely allied species. This new species was bred from parasitized larvae of Elymnias hypermnestra (Linnaeus) (Lep-idoptera: Nymphalidae). In addition to this, two hymenopteran parasitoids, Apanteles folia Nixon (Braconidae: Microgas-trinae) and Brachymeria indica (Krausse) (Chalcididae), are for first time reported parasitizing larvae of Arhopalaamantes (Hewitson) (Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae) and pupae of Pareronia valeria (Cramer) (Lepidoptera: Pieridae) respectively.

In the present study, we report tick infestations on wild birds in plots of the Atlantic Forest reforested fragments with native species and plots reforested with Eucalyptus tereticornis in the municipality of Rio Claro, State of Sao Paulo, Brazil. A total of 256 birds were captured: 137 individuals of 33 species, in planted native forest; and 128 individuals of 37 species, in planted Eucalyptus tereticornis forest. Nymphs of two tick species were found on the birds: Amblyomma calcaratumand Amblyomma longirostre, the former was more abundant in the fragments reforested with Atlantic forest native species, and the latter in the fragment reforested with E. tereticornis. New host records were presented for A. calcaratum.
