Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Larvae of ascaridoid nematodes, particularly Anisakis spp., are common parasites of commercially important marine fishes and may represent a zoonotic hazard following ingestion of raw or undercooked seafood. We investigated the ascaridoid fauna of the sympatric European hake (Merluccius merluccius) and greater forkbeard (Phycis blennoides) from the ...
