The search for hitherto undiscovered larvae of sp. from marine habitat in the Indian sub-continent yielded (Dujardin) larvae hitherto unconfirmed. The present study is the maiden attempt to report 3 stage larvae of from the reef-associated in Arabian Sea off the coast of Goa, which has been identified recently as reef-populated area within the maritime boundary of India. The morphometry of 3 stage larvae has been presented with a record of molecular characterization. In the context of current study, the natural prevalence of larvae in marine piscine hosts of Arabian Sea in India was 6.84 % and of co-occurring (Yadav, Kapoor and Malhotra) in the same fish was 13.65 %. The roundworms were confirmed to be by application of the molecular and genetic characterization based on ITS1, ITS2 and 18S rDNA sequence analysis. The infestation of reef-associated fishes in this study by anisakid worms study provided an opportunity to explore mechanism of ecological associations of coral reefs with parasitization in future.
在印度次大陆海洋栖息地寻找迄今未发现的某种线虫幼虫，发现了（杜雅尔丹）此前未确认的幼虫。本研究首次尝试报告来自果阿海岸附近阿拉伯海与珊瑚礁相关的某种线虫的三期幼虫，该区域最近被确定为印度海域边界内有珊瑚礁的区域。文中呈现了三期幼虫的形态测量数据，并记录了分子特征。在当前研究中，印度阿拉伯海海洋鱼类宿主中线虫幼虫的自然感染率为6.84%，同一条鱼中同时存在的另一种线虫（亚达夫、卡普尔和马尔霍特拉）的感染率为13.65%。通过基于ITS1、ITS2和18S rDNA序列分析的分子和遗传特征鉴定，确认这些蛔虫为某种线虫。本研究中对与珊瑚礁相关鱼类的异尖线虫感染情况进行的研究，为未来探索珊瑚礁与寄生现象的生态关联机制提供了契机。
