Fish were caught in two zones of the Argentine Sea: one sample from San Jorge Gulf (Patagonian Region) and three samples from off the coast of Buenos Aires (Bonaerense Region). A total of 183 fish were examined for parasites and 11 species were found. Host body size and its ecology are pointed out as drivers of the paucity of taxa found. Multivariate similarity analyses allowed the identification of three stocks: one in the San Jorge Gulf, and two other in the Bonaerense Region. The parasite species that contributed most to the separation of the samples were generally those identified as biological markers in previous studies in the area. Patterns of distance decay in similarity among communities in R. brasiliensis were found; with dissimilarity values between distant localities being higher than between close ones. Whereas the composition and structure of parasite assemblages in Bonaerense waters reflect those of other fish species in this region, being mainly determined by the composition of the compound community, no repeatable patterns were found in the composition of parasites assemblages when R. brasiliensis was compared with other hosts species in Patagonia.
