Acanthocephala, Annelida, Arthropoda, Myxozoa, Nematoda and Platyhelminthes parasites of fishes from the Guandu river, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil [PDF]
Using information from all published reports and data collected during several parasitological surveys between April 2003 and September 2009, a checklist of the parasites of fishes from Guandu River, southeastern of Brazil was generated.

Fish are among the vertebrate groups most susceptible to parasitic infections due to environmental characteristics that can favor the development of parasites; also, position of the host in food web has been associated with the parasitism.

Marine Parasite Biogeography Mirrors Host Patterns Across Latitude, Area, and Diversity
Parasites are integral components of biodiversity, yet they remain poorly represented in large‐scale biogeographic theory. In this study, we test whether marine parasites follow three macroecological patterns established for free‐living taxa, namely that parasite species richness: (1) scales positively with area (both host body size and geographic area)

Native and Non‐Native Populations Respond Unevenly to River Barrier Removals
While barrier removals restore river connectivity and promote recovery of native populations, they may also facilitate non‐native species, creating a ‘connectivity conundrum’. Using a systematic review and meta‐analysis, we show that both native and non‐native populations can benefit from barrier removal, with outcomes being context‐dependent ...

ABSTRACT Southern right whale (Eubalaena australis; SRW) populations are recovering from the impacts of commercial whaling, however, recovery has been spatially variable, with strong associations between reproduction and prey availability. The diet of SRWs has not been widely examined, and with SRW foraging shifting away from high‐latitude foraging ...

Our results firstly demonstrate the structure of parasite communities in A. sinensis and clarify how they are shaped by interacting ecological and management factors, providing critical baseline data for future research. ABSTRACT The intestinal parasite communities of vertebrates are shaped by complex interactions among biological, environmental, and ...

Algunos helmintos parásitos de la gaviota peruana (Larus belcheri)
La información sobre helmintos parásitos de aves marinas es muy limitada en el Perú. En el presente trabajo, se identificaron helmintos colectados de la gaviota peruana (Larus belcheri) provenientes de algunas playas de Lima (Pucusana, Chorrillos ...

Marine Fish Parasites: A Bibliometric Review
This bibliometric study analyzes 11,368 publications on marine fish parasites from Web of Science and Scopus. The results reveal leading countries, institutions, and journals, and identify three main research clusters: parasitology, genetics, and marine ecology. Recent thematic evolution highlights a growing focus on aquaculture applications, including
