New species of Raphidascaris (Sprentascaris) (Nematoda: Anisakidae) in Rineloricaria steinbachi (Actinopterygii: Loricariidae) from Northwest Argentina.
TLDR
During a parasitological survey, specimens of a new species of Raphidascaris (Sprentascaris) in Rineloricaria steinbachi are reported from La Caldera River, province of Salta, Northwest Argentina, and this is the sixth species of the genus described in the Neotropical Region and the second from Argentina.

Further study on Procamallanus (Spirocamallanus) pintoi (Kohn et Fernandes, 1988) (Nematoda: Camallanidae) in Corydoras paleatus and Corydoras micracanthus (Siluriformes: Callichthyidae) from Salta,…
TLDR
The light and scanning electron microscopy observations of P. (S.) pintoi, revealed a few previously unreported morphological details of the cephalic region, vulva and caudal region of males, and morphometric variability was observed in, mainly body size, glandular oesophagus length and position of the vulva.

An integrative taxonomic assessment of Procamallanus (Spirocamallanus) huacraensis (Nematoda: Camallanidae), infecting the freshwater catfish Trichomycterus spegazzinii (Siluriformes:…
TLDR
The results of morphological and genetic analyses supported the validity of P. (S.) huacraensis and confirmed the artificiality of the morphology-based systematics of the family Camallanidae.

Histopathological study of Corydoras micracanthus (Siluriformes: Callichthyidae) parasitized by the nematode Procamallanus (Spirocamallanus) pintoi (Camallanidae) from Lesser River, northwestern…
TLDR
The histopathological sections revealed damage to the host intestine with the total destruction of the mucosa and submucosa, observed mainly in the region which is surrounding the buccal capsule of parasites.

An integrative approach assesses the intraspecific variations of Procamallanus (Spirocamallanus) inopinatus, a common parasite in Neotropical freshwater fishes, and the phylogenetic patterns of…
TLDR
Host, environment and geographic aspects seem to be related to some lineages within Camallanidae; however, their real phylogenetic meanings are still unclear.

Deep in the systematics of Camallanidae (Nematoda): using integrative taxonomy to better understand the phylogeny and consistency of diagnostic traits.
TLDR
Although traits of buccal capsule, male tail, habitat, host and biogeographic were highly consistent, intrinsic patterns varied according to different taxa assemblages, which supported the partition of Batrachocamallanus as synonym of Procamallanus and Spirocam allanus.

A checklist of the parasitic nematodes of freshwater fishes from Argentina
TLDR
The knowledge about parasitic nematodes from Argentinian freshwater fishes is far from complete, since some hydrological basin mainly in Pampean and Andean Cuyan regions and some host families remain unexplored in terms of nematode parasite detection.
