Caligus spp. had the highest number of species (11 species from 9 fish species), followed by Lernanthropus spp. and Ergasilus spp. which found 5 and 4 species from 5 and 4 fishes, respectively. The prevalence and mean intensity of Hatschekia caudate in Lutianus vitta were highest number with 82 percent and 136.57, respectively. The presence of Naobranchia sp. on Therapon jarbua, Pseudocongericola sp. on Muraenesox sp., Clavellisa dussumieria on Dussumieria hasseltii, Hermilius pyriventris on Arius sp. and Parapetalus occidentalis on Rachycentron canadum are the new record in Thailand.
