Testing non-lethal techniques for endoparasite detection and sex determination in pumpkinseed sunfish (Lepomis gibbosus). [PDF]
J Fish BiolAbstract Developing non‐lethal techniques to estimate parasite infection is critical for studying disease ecology in wild animals. We tested the effectiveness of coelomic ultrasonographic examination and plasma enzyme markers to detect liver infection with bass tapeworms Proteocephalus ambloplitis (Leidy 1887) as well as the effectiveness of ultrasound
