Identification of proteins from the secretory/excretory products (SEPs) of the branchiuran ectoparasite Argulus foliaceus (Linnaeus, 1758) reveals unique secreted proteins amongst haematophagous ecdysozoa [PDF]
Parasites & Vectors, 2020 Background It is hypothesised that being a blood-feeding ectoparasite, Argulus foliaceus (Linnaeus, 1758), uses similar mechanisms for digestion and host immune evasion to those used by other haematophagous ecdysozoa, including caligid copepods (e.g. sea

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 EvolStable 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).
