Relationship between seasonal dynamics in zooplankton density and Ergasilus infection in two reservoirs [PDF]
Ergasilosis is a common parasitic disease of fish caused by species of the family Ergasilidae. During the fish growing season, parasitic abundance (including developmental stages) changes in relation to zooplankton development. In this study, we evaluated the seasonal dynamics of ergasilosis in relation to zooplankton development ...

Abstract Routine gill swabbing is a non‐destructive sampling method used for the downstream qPCR detection and quantitation of the pathogen Neoparamoeba perurans, a causative agent of amoebic gill disease (AGD). Three commercially available swabs were compared aiming their application for timelier AGD diagnosis (Calgiswab® (calcium alginate fibre ...

Os crustáceos parasitos de peixes da Amazônia Brasileira. II - Ergasilus leporinidis n. sp. (Copepoda: Cyclopoidea) das branquias de Leporinus fasciatus (Bloch) [PDF]
Resumo Ergasilus leporimdis n. sp. é descrita de um peixe amazônico chamado aracu (Anostomidae: Leporinus fasciatus (Bloch). A nova espécie é semelhante à E. bryconis Thatcher, 1981, mas carece da seta pectinada no terceiro segmento do primeiro exopódito.

First study on parasites of Hemibrycon surinamensis (Characidae), a host from the eastern Amazon region. [PDF]
This study was the first investigation of communities and infracommunities of parasites of Hemibrycon surinamensis. All the fish collected in a tributary of the Amazon river were parasitized by one or more parasite species. The Brillouin diversity index (

Abstract The mitochondrial (mt) genome can provide data for phylogenetic analyses and evolutionary biology. Herein, we sequenced and annotated the complete mt genome of Ergasilus anchoratus. This mt genome was 13852 bp long and comprised 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 tRNAs and 2 rRNAs.
