Lobotes surinamensis is an important fishery resource, occurring in tropical and subtropical marine regions throughout the world. Considering the hygienic-sanitary and zoonotic importance of Anisakidae and Raphidascarididae nematode larvae, 50 specimens of L. surinamensis were acquired from fish markets in the State of Rio de Janeiro from May 2023 to December 2024. The fish were analyzed, and 40 nematode larvae belonging to three species of the Anisakidae (2) and Raphidascarididae (1) families were found, parasitizing the abdominal cavity, mesentery, and intestine. The species identified were Contracaecum sp., Terranova sp., and Hysterothylacium sp., with prevalence of 26, 14, and 12%; mean intensity of 1.53, 1.28, and 1.83; and mean abundance of 0.40, 0.18, and 0.22, respectively. The taxonomic identification of these parasites was based on their morphological and morphometric characters, determined using bright-field and scanning electron microscopies. This is the first report of these nematode larvae parasitizing specimens of L. surinamensis and is an important indicator for establishing fish hygiene control. In addition to repulsiveness, the presence of these larvae is of concern due to the risk of allergic reactions, thus intensifying the hygienic-sanitary importance of monitoring these parasites to guarantee safe food for the consumer.
