The study of host-parasite coevolution is one of the cornerstones of evolutionary biology. The majority of fish ectoparasites belonging to the genus Dactylogyrus (Monogenea) exhibit a high degree of host specificity.

Parasites and Pollutants: Effects of Multiple Stressors on Aquatic Organisms
Abstract Parasites can affect their hosts in various ways, and this implies that parasites may act as additional biotic stressors in a multiple‐stressor scenario, resembling conditions often found in the field if, for example, pollutants and parasites occur simultaneously.

Hatching Strategies in Monogenean (Platyhelminth) Parasites that Facilitate Host Infection [PDF]
In parasites, environmental cues may influence hatching of eggs and enhance the success of infections. The two major endoparasitic groups of parasitic platyhelminths, cestodes (tapeworms) and digeneans (flukes), typically have high fecundity, infect more

Variation in the parasite communities of three co‐occurring herbivorous coral reef fishes
Abstract Parasites are important, diverse, and abundant components of natural ecosystems and can influence the behaviour and health of their hosts, inter‐ and intraspecific interactions, and ultimately community structure. Coral reefs are one of the world's most biodiverse ecosystems, yet our understanding of the abundance, diversity, and composition ...

Does the anaesthetic influence behavioural transmission of the monogenean Gyrodactylus gasterostei Glaser, 1974 off the host? [PDF]
The aim of this study was to investigate the use of the anaesthetic 2-phenoxyethanol on the transmission factors of gyrodactylid and to ascertain how this may affect in the colonisation of new hosts using the Gyrodactylus gasterostei Glaser, 1974 ...

Abstract Gyrodactylus spp. (Monogenea) were found on 16.9% (233 out of 1376) Arctic char, Salvelinus alpinus (L.), sampled from September 2010 to October 2011 in the Fustvatnet lake, Northern Norway. Two species were identified: G. salaris Malmberg, 1957, and G. salmonis Yin & Sproston, 1948.

Monogenean parasites are often co-introduced with their fish hosts into novel areas. This study confirmed co-introduction of two dactylogyrids, Dactylogyrus squameus Gusev, 1955 and Bivaginogyrus obscurus (Gusev, 1955), and a newly described gyrodactylid

Dermopristis cairae n. sp. (Microbothriidae) is described from the skin and possibly from the nasal fossae of the giant shovelnosed ray Glaucostegus typus (Bennett). The new species is distinguished from D.
