Ten parasite species were identified after a study carried out on 125 swordfish from the Gulf of Guinea waters. The samples were taken between August and November 1997; 3 of the parasite species, Caligus coryphaenae, Pelichnibothrium speciossum, and Sphyriocephalus viridis were recorded for the first time on this host.
