Parasite richness and abundance within aquatic macroinvertebrates: testing the roles of host‐ and habitat‐level factors [PDF]
Ecosphere, 2018 The importance of parasites as both members of biological communities and structuring agents of host communities has been increasingly emphasized. Yet parasites of aquatic macroinvertebrates and the environmental factors regulating their richness and ...

Genetic diversity and population structure of parasite infrapopulations within and across hosts for two trophically transmitted trematode parasites [PDF]
PeerJComplex parasite life cycles frequently require trophic transfer of parasites from an intermediate host prey to a definitive host predator. This results in aggregated distributions of parasites in predator host populations, which are subsequently ...

A fine-scale phylogenetic assessment of digenean trematodes in central Alberta reveals we have yet to uncover their total diversity. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2019 This manuscript represents a large, single, collective examination of larval trematodes from snail hosts, using molecular markers and phylogenetic methods. We contribute 1,091 mitochondrial sequences (cox1 and nad1) that represent 79 species from 23 genera and eight families.

Freshwater Biology, Volume 67, Issue 12, Page 2089-2099, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Freshwater molluscs are hosts for diverse metazoan symbionts. However, apart from the digenean helminths, symbionts of molluscs are underreported worldwide. Therefore, this study focused on the diversity of oligochaetes, leeches, mites, insect larvae and nematodes associated with gastropods and bivalves from Lake Victoria, East Africa. Overall,
