Sea lice, Lepeophtheirus salmonis (Krøyer 1837), infected Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) are more susceptible to infectious salmon anemia virus.

PLoS ONE, 2019
The role of parasitic sea lice (Siphonostomatoida; Caligidae), especially Lepeophtheirus salmonis, in the epidemiology of Infectious Salmon Anemia Virus (ISAv) has long been suspected.

Decoding diversity: Are there patterns in the organization of grooming movements in domestic cats?

Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, Volume 126, Issue 3, November 2026.
Abstract Grooming is crucial for mammalian health and hygiene, serving diverse functions such as parasite defense, removing dirt, and thermoregulation. Grooming is not purely reactive but integrated into daily routines and regulated endogenously. In rodents, it has been shown to follow a sequential structure with predictable patterns, often interpreted

Ocular Manifestations of Infectious Salmon Anaemia Virus Infection in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar)

Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 49, Issue 11, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Eyes are essential sensory organs needed by teleost Atlantic salmon for high visual acuity and survival in both the wild and in aquaculture settings. In this work, we assessed the ocular manifestations of Infectious Salmon Anaemia Virus (ISAV) infection in Atlantic salmon by a cohabitation‐mediated infection assay and histological and ...

Eco‐Epidemiological Study of Seropositivity Against Rickettsia and Leptospira Agents in Rural Areas of Urabá, Colombia

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 31, Issue 11, Page 1569-1583, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Rickettsioses and leptospirosis are infectious diseases often underdiagnosed due to limited knowledge about their epidemiology, pathophysiology, and clinical aspects. Objectives To characterize the seroprevalence and seroincidence of Rickettsia and Leptospira agents and determine their associated factors in rural areas of Urabá ...

Simulated Targeted Anthelmintic Treatment Maintains Dung Removal but Not Dung‐Inhabiting Insect Communities

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
Spatially explicit simulation modelling reveals complex effects of anthelmintic treatment regimes on dung‐inhabiting insect communities across three functional guilds (flies, endocoprids, paracoprids). Only without treatment did significant community effects not occur, while increasing livestock stocking density reduced overall community size ...

Co‐phylogeny and biogeography of the myrmecophilous beetle Paussus favieri (Carabidae, Paussinae) and its host ant Pheidole pallidula (Hymenoptera, Myrmicinae)

Insect Science, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 2210-2226, October 2026.
Strict patterns of co‐divergence have rarely been documented other than among organisms and their symbionts. In this paper, using a molecular approach, we inferr the population‐level phylogenies of a Mediterranean ant species Pheidole pallidula and its nest parasite, the obligate myrmecophilous beetle Paussus favieri. We then investigate the role of co‐

Navigating aquaculture health: Farm‐friendly framework for risk‐based management

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Risks to animal health are concerns for any agricultural system. Mitigation of these risks protects and improves population health and productivity, as well as opportunities for trade. Directing health management attention and resources to identify and address risk has the potential to achieve great impact for the least cost; however, risk ...
