 The purpose of this investigation was to identify the presence of parasite infections and cystic formation in Scomber japonicus, Scomber scombrus, and Thunnus thynnus. Euryphorus brachypterus and Clavellisa scombri were identified from Thunnus thynnus and Scomber scombrus, respectively. Anisakis pegreffii was identified from Scomber japonicus and Scomber scombrus by using molecular methods. Additionally, Anisakis typical was determined from Scomber japonicus.
