Enterogyrus is a genus of monogeneans belonging to the family Ancyrocephalidae.WoRMS (2019). Enterogyrus Paperna, 1963. Accessed at: http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=1051925 on 2019-02-05
All members of the genus are parasitic on fish, but, in contrast to most ancyrocephalid which are parasites on the gills, species of Enterogyrus are parasite in the digestive system.{{cite journal|last1=Zhang|first1=Shuai|last2=Zhi|first2=Tingting|last3=Xu|first3=Xiangli|last4=Zheng|first4=Yingying|last5=Bilong Bilong|first5=Charles Félix|last6=Pariselle|first6=Antoine|last7=Yang|first7=Tingbao|title=Monogenean fauna of alien tilapias (Cichlidae) in south China|journal=Parasite|volume=26|year=2019|pages=4|issn=1776-1042|doi=10.1051/parasite/2019003|url= |pmid= 30714897|pmc=6361074}} {{open access}}
