Diplostomum-Induced Sac Formation in Lenses of Ameiurus Bullheads: A Host Defence Response? [PDF]

J Fish Dis
ABSTRACT Trematodes of the genus Diplostomum (Diplostomidae) are widely distributed and significant fish pathogens known for causing a range of negative effects. Any mechanism that protects the host from the parasite thus represents an evolutionary advantage.

UNUSUAL PATHOGENICITY OF A COMMON METACERCARIA OF FISH [PDF]

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1970
The metacercaria of Posthodiplostomum minimum centrarchi Hoffman, 1958, is reported from an unusual host, Roccus saxatilis, from North Carolina. Although few dead or moribund fish were observed, there were many deformed fish, few of which survived. The metacercariae were in the musculature and orbit of the eye instead of in the usual location in the ...
