Description Nematodes infect various organs of fish such as
stomach, intestine, liver, gonads, swim bladder, fins,
orbits of the eye and brain. This parasitic infestation
is known to cause growth retardation and impaired
gonadal development in fishes. Bullseye belonging
to the family Priacanthidae is a major demersal
fishery resource in India and mainly caught by
multiday trawlers operated at 20-150 m depths.
Nematode parasites were found in moontail bullseye
Priacanthus hamrur landed at Cochin Fisheries
Harbour during May-September, 2017 period.
