Shining a light on parasite behaviour: daily patterns of Argulus fish lice. [PDF]

open access: yesParasitology, 2021
AbstractParasites display a wide range of behaviours that are frequently overlooked in favour of host responses. Understanding these behaviours can improve parasite control through a more precise application or development of new behaviour-based strategies.

Farmed salmonids drive the abundance, ecology and evolution of parasitic salmon lice in Norway

open access: yesAquaculture Environment Interactions, 2021
Sea cage fish farming is typically open to the environment, with disease transmission possible between farmed and wild hosts. In salmonid aquaculture, salmon louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis infestations cause production losses, reduce welfare for farmed ...

A Study of Fish Lice (Argulus Sp.) Infection in Freshwater Food Fish [PDF]

open access: yesFolia Veterinaria, 2016
AbstractArgulussp., commonly referred to as fish lice, are crustacean ectoparasites of fishes. The hematophagous parasites attach to and feed off the integument of their hosts. Outbreaks of epizootics have been reported worldwide, causing mass mortalities and having serious economic implications for fish farms and culture efforts.Argulusfish lice may ...
