Diel variation in egg-laying by the freshwater fish louse Argulus foliaceus (Crustacea: Branchiura) [PDF]

open access: yesDiseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2007
Removal of deposited eggs could be a useful control strategy for the damaging fish ectoparasite Argulus foliaceus, but focused control requires knowledge of egg-laying patterns. Here, we investigated diel changes in the egg-laying behaviour of a natural population of A. foliaceus. Data were collected from 17-28 May 2004.

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

open access: yesParasites & 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.

The cost of infection: Argulus foliaceus and its impact on the swimming performance of the three-spined stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus). [PDF]

open access: yesJ R Soc Interface, 2018
For fish, there can be multiple consequences of parasitic infections, including the physical impacts on swimming and the pathological costs of infection. This study used the three-spined stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus) and the ectoparasitic fish louse,Argulus foliaceus, to assess both physical (including form drag and mass) and pathological ...

Seasonal and vertical patterns of egg-laying by the freshwater fish louse Argulus foliaceus (Crustacea: Branchiura) [PDF]

open access: yesDiseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2006
Argulus foliaceus is a damaging fish ectoparasite for which new control measures are being developed based on egg-removal. In an attempt to develop further understanding of seasonal and vertical egg-laying patterns in this parasite, egg-laying activity was monitored over the period 14 April to 17 November 2003 in 2 rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss ...

Smell of Infection: A Novel, Noninvasive Method for Detection of Fish Excretory-Secretory Proteins. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Proteome Res, 2019
Chemical signals are produced by aquatic organisms following predatory attacks or perturbations such as parasitic infection. Ectoparasites feeding on fish hosts are likely to cause release of similar alarm cues into the environment due to the stress ...

The First Record of Argulus Foliacesus (Crustacea: Branchiura) Infesta­tion on Lionhead Goldfish (Carassius Auratus) in Iran [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Parasitology, 2010
Argulus foliaceus (Crustacea: Branchiura), or the fish louse, is an ectoparasite of the skin or gill of the fresh water fish species. Clinical signs in infected fish include scratching on aquarium walls, erratic swimming, and poor growth.

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]

open access: yesEcol 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).

Exploring the Parasite Biodiversity in Climbing Perch (<i>Anabas testudineus</i>) in Buriram, Thailand: Morphological-Based Characterization. [PDF]

open access: yesScientificWorldJournal
Anabas testudineus is an amphibious freshwater fish species native to Thailand, which is afflicted by protozoan and metazoan infections. This study was aimed at identifying the presence of parasites in A. testudineus from Thung Lam Natural Reservoir in Buriram Province, Thailand, between November 2022 and January 2023.
