Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) aquaculture in a changing climate: Quantitative insights from industry records and climate projections

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Predicting and understanding the implications of climate change on Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) aquaculture is a fundamental step to understanding risk and mitigating potential impacts. Here, we statistically downscale established climate models using satellite‐based sea surface temperature data and in situ industry measurements to inform ...

Changing Demographics and Prevalence of Body Lice among Homeless Persons, Marseille, France

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2017
The prevalence of body lice among 2,288 sheltered homeless persons in the city of Marseille during 2000–2017 was 12.2% and significantly decreased over time. We report a positive association between body lice infestations and older age, duration of stays

Impact of light pollution on fishes: Mechanisms and ecological consequences

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The increasing prevalence of artificial light at night (ALAN) is of growing ecological concern. By altering natural light regimes, ALAN affects the behaviour, physiology and life‐history of organisms. While research has largely focused on terrestrial ecosystems, aquatic ecosystems are increasingly exposed.

Assessment of Salinity Tolerance in Lepeophtheirus salmonis Following Five Generations of Freshwater Treatment Selection

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Non‐medicinal approaches for controlling sea lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) infestations, such as freshwater (FW) treatments, have been increasingly implemented to support more sustainable parasite control in aquaculture. This study evaluated the efficacy of FW treatment against sea lice under controlled experimental conditions and assessed ...

Divergent Healing Trajectories Among Common Mechanical Skin Wound Types in Post‐Smolt Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar Linnaeus, 1758)

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mechanical wounds are a common form of skin damage in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar Linnaeus, 1758) aquaculture and can predispose fish to secondary infections. Such wounds often arise from routine farming practices, including delousing operations.

Bacterial composition of Polygenis (Polygenis) bohlsi bohlsi (Wagner, 1901) (Siphonaptera: Rhopalopsyllidae) associated with Thrichomys fosteri (Rodentia: Echimyidae) in the Brazilian Pantanal wetland

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
This study characterizes the bacteriome of Polygenis (Polygenis) bohlsi bohlsi fleas collected from free‐living Thrichomys fosteri in the Pantanal region of Brazil. The bacterial microbiota associated with male fleas exhibited greater phylogenetic diversity, and the overall community structure differed between the flea sexes.

Head lice among Greek schoolchildren: Prevalence, impact of the COVID‐19 pandemic and parental beliefs

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Head lice prevalence among Greek schoolchildren declined during COVID‐19 school closures. Parents' misconceptions about transmission and treatment remain common, highlighting the need for evidence‐based health education. Sociodemographic characteristics and parental beliefs were associated with reported infestation patterns and head lice management ...

Prevalence and risk factors associated with ectoparasite infestation of buffaloes in an Amazonian ecosystem

Parasites & Vectors, 2018
Background The water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) is well adapted in some regions of the Amazon. Of all Brazilian states, Pará contains the largest number of this species, with 510,000 animals, approximately 38% of the Brazilian buffaloes.

Human infestation with pubic lice

International Journal of Research in Dermatology, 2020
Pediculosis pubis is caused by Phthirus pubis (diptera: anoplura) commonly known as crab louse, an obligatory ectoparasite, found on human hair and requires human blood to survive. Pubic lice can be found on pubic hair, underarms, thigh and leg hair, beard and rarely on eyebrows and eyelashes. They are rarely found on scalp hair.

Not extinct but thriving—The rediscovery of the horseshoe bat fly Phthiridium biarticulatum (Diptera: Nycteribiidae) in the United Kingdom

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Bat flies such as Phthiridium biarticulatum Hermann are haematophagous ectoparasites of bats. Phthiridium biarticulatum was last recorded in the United Kingdom in 1959 and was considered regionally extinct. We report the presence of P. biarticulatum on Lesser Horseshoe Bats Rhinolophus hipposideros (Bechstein) across South West England.
