Abstract

This study investigated the Detection of Helminth Endoparasites from selected marketable Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and Galunggong (Decapterus maruadsi) collected from Zapote Market, Bacoor, Cavite. Of the two fish hosts, D. maruadsi are infected solely by Anisakis simplex (100%) while O. niloticus are infected with unknown protozoan (60%) and Eimeria spp. (6.67%). Therefore, A. simplex is the only nematode found in edible fish D. maruadsi. The parasites distribution among fish hosts is significantly different (P<0.05) which can be affected by their habitat.
