Behavioural adaptations of argulid parasites (Crustacea: Branchiura) to major challenges in their life cycle [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors, 2015
Fish lice (Argulus spp.) are obligate ectoparasites, which contrary to most aquatic parasites, retain the ability to swim freely throughout the whole of their life.

Development of a Multiplex Fluorescence in Situ Hybridization Assay to Identify Coinfections in Young-of-the-Year Smallmouth Bass. [PDF]

J Aquat Anim Health, 2022
Abstract Histopathological assessments of young‐of‐the‐year (age‐0) Smallmouth Bass Micropterus dolomieu in the Susquehanna River drainage identified a high prevalence of the myxozoan Myxobolus inornatus. This myxozoan infects the connective tissue of the muscle below the skin but is sometimes observed in the esophagus and buccal cavity.

Argulus japonicus: A Concerning Health Issue for Channa punctata in Southwestern Bangladesh. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
This study investigated Argulus japonicus infestation in Channa punctata in southwestern Bangladesh, with 60.7% prevalence among 140 fish including morphological identifications. Parasites were primarily found on gills, eyes, and skin, causing significant haematological, clinical and histological changes.

Dietary Shifts Among the Developmental Stages of the Ectoparasite, Argulus japonicus (Crustacea; Branchiura), Mirror Ontogeny as Shown Through Differences in Stable Isotope Ratios of Carbon (δ¹³C) and Nitrogen (δ¹⁵N). [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Stable isotope fractionation serves as a fingerprint of nutrients assimilated by organisms. This study aimed to compare fractionation patterns of stable isotope ratios of carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) among various life stages of A. japonicus infecting goldfish hosts (Carassius auratus).

Interactions between two parasites of brown trout (Salmo trutta): Consequences of preinfection. [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2018
Freshwater pearl mussels's parasitic stage (glochidia) is usually considered to be not very harmful to their host, brown trout. However, even a small damage to fish gills caused by this parasite can make its host more vulnerable to subsequent infections.

Infection of Cypriniform Fishes with Argulus coregoni (Crustacea: Branchiura: Argulidae) in a Low-elevation Stream, Central Japan

Species Diversity
Recent studies have reported that salmonids and ayu Plecoglossus altivelis altivelis (Temminck and Schlegel, 1846), both of which are salmoniform fishes, serve as important hosts for Argulus coregoni Thorell, 1864. These studies found the parasite in the
