The Asian fish tapeworm (AFT), Schyzocotyle acheilognathi, is a notorious and highly successful invasive parasite reported in a wide spectrum of freshwater fishes, and new reports of its spread continue to emerge. To date, no thorough review of its worldwide distribution and host associations is available. In the present work, we collected information from 651 articles up until 2017, from which we updated the number of the hosts to 312 fish species and 11 non-fish species, which is quite unusual among helminths. The AFT has spread to all but one continent (Antarctica). The highest number of records are from North America, followed by Asia and Europe. A key feature of its invasive success is its broad environmental tolerance.
亚洲带绦虫（AFT），即短膜壳绦虫，是一种臭名昭著的高度成功的入侵性寄生虫，已在广泛的淡水鱼类中报告，其传播的新报告不断出现。迄今为止，尚无其全球分布和宿主关联的全面综述。在本工作中，我们从截至 2017 年的 651 篇文章中收集了信息，从中我们将宿主数量更新为 312 种鱼类和 11 种非鱼类，这在寄生虫中是非常不寻常的。AFT 已传播到除南极洲以外的所有大陆。记录最多的是北美的，其次是亚洲和欧洲。其入侵成功的一个关键特征是其广泛的环境耐受性。
