Parasitofauna of commercial fish species of the Northern (Small) Aral Sea [PDF]
The catastrophic desiccation of the Aral Sea and subsequent hydrological changes have profoundly altered the region's ecosystem, leading to the restructuring of both fish communities and their associated parasite assemblages.

Sea lice infestation level alters salmon swimming depth in sea-cages
Host-parasite systems are often characterised by a co-evolutionary arms race, with avoidance behaviour being the first line of defence for hosts. In aquatic ecosystems, the rapid rise of fish farming has elevated host abundance, altering the context of ...

PREVALENCE OF GASTROINTESTINAL PARASITES INFECTING FISH (CLARIAS GARIEPINUS) IN QENA GOVERNORATE [PDF]
Parasites of fish are of concern since they often produce a weakening of the host`s immune system thereby increasing their susceptibility to the secondary infections, resulting in the nutritive devaluation of fish ,compete for food, depriving fish of ...

A Global Assessment of Parasite Diversity in Galaxiid Fishes
Free-living species often receive greater conservation attention than the parasites they support, with parasite conservation often being hindered by a lack of parasite biodiversity knowledge.

Parasitism, personality and cognition in fish [PDF]
It is well established that parasites can have profound effects on the behaviour of host organisms, and that individual differences in behaviour can influence susceptibility to parasite infections. Recently, two major themes of research have developed.
