Argulus coregoni Thorell, 1864 was collected from the body surface of ayu, Plecoglossus altivelis altivelis (Temminck & Schlegel, 1846), from six rivers in Gifu, Achi, Mie, and Shiga prefectures, central Honshu, Japan. The collection of A. coregoni from Mie Prefecture represents its new prefectural record. Salmonids have been regarded as the major hosts of A. coregoni in Japanese rivers, but the present collections suggest that ayu is also important as a riverine host of the parasite.
