Dermocystidium is a genus of cyst-forming,
eukaryotic fish parasites,
[2] the causative agents of
dermocystidiosis .
Taxonomic history
The genus Dermocystidium was described in 1907. It was previously thought to be a genus of fungal parasites, related to the
Thraustochytrida and
Labyrinthulida (both those groups are now considered to be
stramenopiles rather than
fungi ). Other biologists considered it to be a
sporozoan protist.
It was subsequently identified as one of a group of fish parasites (the "DRIP clade") of previously uncertain affiliation, which were later identified as nonanimal, nonfungal
opisthokonts ,
[3] and renamed as
Ichthyosporea , and after expansion as
Mesomycetozoa . Parasites of crustacea (Dermocystidium daphniae ) and
molluscs (Dermocystidium marinum ) placed in this genus have been found to be likely a
bacterium and an
alveolate , respectively: Sayre, Gherna and Wergin (1983) concluded that Dermocystidium daphniae was likely identical to
Pasteuria ramosa Metchnikoff, 1888 ,
[4] while D. marinum has been reclassified as
Perkinsus marinus .
[5]
The frog parasite Dermocystidium ranae has recently been segregated as
Amphibiocystidium ranae .
