All specimens of S. brasiliensis were parasitized by at least one species of metazoan parasite, with mean of 68.7 \u00b1 71.2 parasites\/fish. Eleven species were collected: 3 digeneans, 1 monogenean, 2 cestodes, 3 nematodes and 2 copepods. The digenean Myosaccium ecaude Montgomery was the most abundant, prevalent, and dominant species, representing 72.7% of metazoan parasites collected, showing positive correlation between host\u2019s total length and parasite abundance. Total parasite abundance was positively correlated with host\u2019s total length. Three pairs of adult endoparasites showed significant positive association and covariation. The parasite community of S. brasiliensis showed dominance by digeneans. Sardinella brasiliensis represents new host record for most found parasite species.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1590\/1519-6984.00114","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,8,22]],"date-time":"2015-08-22T22:26:39Z","timestamp":1440282399000},"page":"736-741","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["Community
