Detection of enteric parasite DNA in household and bed dust samples: potential for infection transmission. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
BACKGROUND: Enteric parasites are transmitted in households but few studies have sampled inside households for parasites and none have used sensitive molecular methods.

Spiral valve parasites of blue and common thresher sharks as indicators of shark feeding behaviour and ecology

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 97, Issue 2, Page 354-361, August 2020., 2020
Abstract This study documented the parasite faunas of the spiral valves of blue sharks Prionace glauca (L. 1758) and common thresher sharks Alopias vulpinus (Bonnaterre, 1788) caught in the California Current Large Marine Ecosystem (CCLME) north of the Mexican border.

Lutz's spontaneous sedimentation technique and the paleoparasitological analysis of sambaqui (shell mound) sediments

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2013
Parasite findings in sambaquis (shell mounds) are scarce. Although the 121 shell mound samples were previously analysed in our laboratory, we only recently obtained the first positive results.

Infection levels and species diversity of ascaridoid nematodes in Atlantic cod, Gadus morhua, are correlated with geographic area and fish size [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) is among the most important commercial fish species on the world market. Its infection by ascaridoid nematodes has long been known, Pseudoterranova even being named cod worm.

No more time to stay ‘single’ in the detection of Anisakis pegreffii, A. simplex (s. s.) and hybridization events between them: a multi-marker nuclear genotyping approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A multi-marker nuclear genotyping approach was performed on larval and adult specimens of Anisakis spp. (N = 689) collected from fish and cetaceans in allopatric and sympatric areas of the two species Anisakis pegreffii and Anisakis simplex (s.

Morphological and molecular studies of Hysterothylacium thalassini third-stage larvae (Ascaridida, Raphidascarididae) in the greater lizardfish Saurida tumbil [PDF]

open access: yesArquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia
Hysterothylacium species are perhaps the most abundant and diverse group of marine ascaridoids. Identification of larval stages at specific levels is very problematic.

Population genetic structure of the parasite Anisakis simplex (s. s.) collected in Clupea harengus L. from North East Atlantic fishing grounds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The Atlantic herring is a schooling, pelagic species that inhabits both sides of the North Atlantic Ocean. Herring stock identification is usually based on several approaches, including fish meristic characters, population genetic analysis and the use ...

Abnormal Helminth Egg Development, Strange Morphology, and the Identification of Intestinal Helminth Infections

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2018
Occasionally, abnormal forms of parasitic helminth eggs are detected during routine diagnostics. This finding can prove problematic in diagnosis because morphologic analysis based on tightly defined measurements is the primary method used to identify the

Comparative parasitism of the fish plagioscion squamosissimus in native and invated river basins. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Biological invasions are considered a major threat to biodiversity around the world, but the role of parasites in this process is still little investigated.
