Résumé

This study results from a continued investigation of the occurrence and diversity of parasites of freshwater fish in the Solomon Islands. Thus, we revealed a new host as well as a new site of infection and a new geographical area for the cryptogonimid parasite, Stemmatostoma cribbi (Digenea: Cryptogonimidae). The cryptogonimid species was identified based on general morphology and on molecular data of metacercariae found in the gills of the cleft-lipped goby, Sicyopterus cynocephalus, from Ranongga Island, Western Province of the Solomon Islands. This is the first report of a Stemmatostoma sp. digenean parasitizing fish of the genus Sicyopterus in the Indo-Pacific region and the first report of S. cribbi infection in a fish from the Solomon Islands. Phylogenetic analysis performed by Bayesian inference and maximum likelihood confirmed the presence of the cryptogonimid in a well-supported subclade of Stemmatostoma spp.
