Checklist of The Monogenea (Platyhelminthes) Parasitic in Tunisian Aquatic Vertebrates.

153 species of monogeneans have been recorded in Tunisian aquatic vertebrates (89 hosts). A list of these species with hosts is presented. A comparison of the Monogenea diversity off the coast of Tunisia with other regions of the Mediterranean Sea and the world is provided. The number of parasites depends on the number of hosts examined and their diversity in the region. This list shows that Monopisthocotylea is the richest group. In addition, new records have been reported during a survey of the diversity of monogeneans fish in the southern coast of Tunisia (Gulf of Gabes) including: (Parona and Perugia, 1895) Johnston, 1929 Euzet, 1984 Amine, Euzet & Kechemir-Issad, 2007 Euzet & Oliver, 1966 Euzet, 1984 Euzet, 1984 Oliver, 1969 Amine, Euzet & Kechemir-Issad, 2007 Euzet & Suriano, 1977 Euzet & Suriano, 1977 Euzet & Suriano, 1977 Euzet & Suriano, 1977 Euzet & Suriano, 1977 Price, 1939 and (Van Beneden, 1871) Euzet & Prost, 1969.
