Abstract

Pomadasys jubelini collected twice monthly from June 2011 to May 3013 from the New Calabar-Bonny River were examined for parasites. The fish species sampled were caught using calabashes, traps, gill nets and hooks and lines. No ectoparasite was found on the outer surface of the fish, while the only endoparasite found was the Cymotho aexigua in the mouth of the fish. Out of the 202 samples obtained only 46 (22. 77%) had parasites. The tongue-parasite C. exigua was found to parasitize P. jubelini in the New Calabar Bonny River.
