Fish translocation for the ornamental fish sector has resulted in the co-introduction of their parasites in a new region. In this study, we are characterized a nonindigenous monogenean, Sciadicleithrum iphthimum, which infected an introduced cichlid, Pterophyllum scalare (Angelfish) imported into India for ornamental purposes. The present species was identified using morphological and molecular data using 18S and 28S rDNA sequences, and they were generated for the first time. We are providing here a morphological description and phylogenetic analysis of S. iphthimum, which appeared genetically close to Sciadicleithrum spp. and nested within dactylogyrid parasites.
