Host specificity ofArgulus coregoni(Crustacea: Branchiura) increases at maturation

Parasitology, 2007
SUMMARYWe tested the hypothesis that host specificity in ectoparasites does not depend exclusively on the features of the host but also on surrounding habitats, using 2 fish ectoparasites,Argulus coregoniandA. foliaceus(Crustacea: Branchiura), occurring sympatrically in Finnish lakes. Although these parasites are considered to be of low specificity, we
