Diversity of the Amoebozoa and Ciliophora Groups in Non-Human Primates Kept Ex Situ and in Their Handlers in Different Institutions in Brazil [PDF]

open access: yesPathogens
Parasitic infections in non-human primates (NHPs) kept ex situ can be caused by zoonotic protists like Balantioides coli and Entamoeba histolytica. In Brazil, little is known about these infections in neotropical species.

Miamiensis avidus (Ciliophora: Scuticociliatida) causes systemic infection of olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus and is a senior synonym of Philasterides dicentrarchi [PDF]

open access: yesDiseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2007
The scuticociliate Miamiensis avidus was isolated from olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus showing typical symptoms of ulceration and hemorrhages in skeletal muscle and fins. In an infection experiment, olive flounder (mean length: 14.9 cm; mean weight: 26.8 g) were immersion challenged with 2.0 x 10(3), 2.0 x 10(4) and 2.0 x 10(5) ciliates ml-1 of ...

'Candidatus Megaira polyxenophila' gen. nov., sp. nov.: considerations on evolutionary history, host range and shift of early divergent rickettsiae. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
"Neglected Rickettsiaceae" (i.e. those harboured by non-hematophagous eukaryotic hosts) display greater phylogenetic variability and more widespread dispersal than pathogenic ones; yet, the knowledge about their actual host range and host shift mechanism

Efficacy of selected oral chemotherapeutants against Ichthyophthirius multifiliis (Ciliophora: Ophyroglenidae) infecting rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss [PDF]

open access: yesDiseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2003
The chemotherapeutic efficacy of 6 in-feed compounds against Ichthyophthirius multifiliis Fouquet, 1876 was assessed using experimental infections of rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum) fingerlings. Trial doses of 104 ppm amprolium hydrochloride or 65 ppm clopidol fed to fish for 10 d prior to infection significantly reduced the number of ...

Infection of Dreissena polymorpha (Bivalvia: Dreissenidae) with Conchophthirus acuminatus (Ciliophora: Conchophthiridae) in lakes of different trophy

open access: yesBioInvasions Records, 2012
The freshwater invasive mollusc Dreissena polymorpha and its host-specific commensal ciliate Conchophthirus acuminatus represent a convenient model to study various aspects of symbiotic relationships. This study was conducted to test whether the nutrient enrichment of waterbodies inhabited by D. polymorpha is associated with C.

Effect of environmental factors on survival and population growth of ciliated parasite,Mesanophryssp. (Ciliophora: Scuticociliatia) infectingPortunus trituberculatus

open access: yesParasitology, 2020
AbstractMesanophryssp. is a newly identified parasitic ciliate infecting farmed swimming crab. To demonstrate the correlation between parasite development and environmental conditions, this study aimed to investigate the effect of temperature, salinity, pH and frequency of passage of parasite on survival, growth and body size ofMesanophryssp.in vitro ...

Morphological, ecological and histopathological studies of Trichodina gobii raabe, 1959 (Ciliophora: Peritrichida) infecting the gills of Solea aegyptiaca

open access: yesProtistology, 2010
Specimens of Solea aegyptiaca caught from Ghar El Melh lagoon in Tunisia were investigated for trichodinid ectoparasites. One species of the genus Trichodina was recorded on the gills of S. aegyptiaca. This species is identified as Trichodina gobii Raabe, 1959 which is reported for the first time on the soleidae fishes from Tunisian waters.
